This is one of the best jiu Jitsu schools in South Florida. The environment is awesome and everyone at the gym is very friendly and respectful. I highly recommend this gym to anyone that is interested in learning real jiu Jitsu from some of the best teachers around.

I have been coming to this academy since the day it opened and I would not want to train anywhere else. In my line of work, I have been fortunate enough to travel the world and visit hundreds of different jiu-jitsu schools and by far this is one of the best places to train. High-level grapplers with no egos, no drama. Just friends training hard and pushing each other to get better all under the supportive and watchful eye of world champion Jorge Santiago. Definitely worth a stop if you are in town or coming to start training jiu-jitsu here.

Both of my children have been going to Xcell for a year now and absolutely love it. If you want an academy that is not only focused on teaching your child Jiu-Jitsu but also improving their confidence and self-esteem you won't find a better place.

Joined after being with my first academy for close to 11 years, and by far was the best decision I’ve made. Professor Jorge is a very knowledgeable and technical instructor who pays attention to detail, on top of being a very active competitor. No matter what your goal is with jiu-jitsu you will accomplish it here with the amount of support and training you will get from him and the students under his guidance.
