The new facility is amazing! I am a brown belt that started 11 years ago and I came to Jon Burke as a purple belt. I trained one class with him and immediately switched gyms. His experience training with Royce Gracie and having the closest proximity to the source of knowledge in the Gracies was so obvious right away. The details are top notch and the application is always combined with self-defense reality. If you walk into 99% of gyms now, and ask yourself "can I get punched in the face really hard doing this move?" you will be amazed and disappointed. Just about every class even after all my former experience I still think "welp, I wish I learned this years ago." I can't say enough about the quality of pure Jiu Jitsu you will find here. I am ride or die for Jon Burke and the 6 Levels family is so supportive and amazing. The rolls are hard but safe, and the instruction vibe is attentive and focused.

Cannot be more grateful to All the 6 Levels Coaches and Staff!!! As a parent, I have not regretted my decision once on enrolling my child in JiuJitsu. The confidence that my son has learned at 6 Levels with Gracie JiuJitsu has transferred to so many other aspects of his life. His grades are better. His manners have improved. And most important, he has become confident and not cocky. Definitely recommend every parent to have their child check out 6 Levels!!!

We have been members here for 2 and a half years now and there is so much to say. 6 Levels is an incredible place where my son has learned valuable skills in Jiu Jitsu and self defense, but also sportsmanship and confidence. Coach John and Coach Ryan are incredible at teaching these skills and we respect them and what they do so much. All of the coaches are great with the kids and are some of my son's favorite people. The facility is amazing and clean, and gives the parents an opportunity to be involved in the class without being a distraction to the learning process. It is a comfortable place that provides the parents a fun space to be around each other and form friendships that make 6 Levels feel like a second home. We couldn't have found a better place to call our Jiu Jitsu home and we look forward to being a part of 6 Levels for many years to come.

My son loves this place! The coaches are truly amazing, caring, patient, and motivating. I’m really grateful we found this gym, because having my son train here has been such a positive experience for him and for us as parents. The jiu-jitsu classes have helped him build confidence, discipline, and focus, while also teaching him respect and teamwork. He looks forward to every class and always leaves with a smile. Here is more than a place to training. The gym is welcoming, supportive, and feels like the perfect environment for kids to grow and thrive. I would highly recommend it to any parent who is looking for a safe, encouraging, and inspiring place for their child.

We absolutely love 6 Levels Orlando! I am a student of their adult Gracie Jiu-Jitsu classes and have attended all of their women's self defense classes. I also take private instruction from their Fitness and Striking coaches. My son is also a student in the youth program and is on the comp team. What makes 6 levels different is that is family owned and operated and when you go there, you feel like a family member. They really care about each and every student.
