Liberdade Jiu Jitsu

I dropped into Liberdade Jiu Jitsu while passing through Nashville and it was awesome. First off—Alex was super communicative over email, made booking my first class ridiculously easy. Zack greeted me when I walked in, helped me get checked in for the drop-in and hooked me up with a gi rental—zero hassle. The place? Spotless. Big mat space, strength & conditioning area, clean changing rooms and bathrooms—everything dialed in. But the real highlight? The people. Talented crew, all class acts. Everyone trained smart, rolled hard, and were super open to the instruction I shared. If you’re in Nashville or just passing through, this is a must stop. Liberdade gets it right.

My son and I dropped in at Liberdade BJJ while we were in Nashville on vacation and had an awesome experience. From the moment we walked in, everyone was incredibly welcoming and down to earth. The instruction was clear, technical, and really well paced. No ego at all — just solid jiu-jitsu and people who genuinely want you to learn and get better. What stood out most for me was how great they were with my son. The coaches and training partners made him feel comfortable right away and included him fully, which means a lot as a parent. Clean gym, great culture, and high-level training in a very supportive environment. If you’re visiting Nashville or looking for a new gym, I can’t recommend Liberdade BJJ enough. We’ll absolutely be back next time we’re in town. 🥋👊

If you’re in Nashville and wanna train great jiu jitsu make sure to check these guys out. Professor Milton is a great coach and even better person. Everyone received me very well. Thank you professor Milton and Joao!

I’ve dabbled in a lot spots but never got around to Jiu Jitsu. I never wanted to be the girly newb of the class but of course we all have to start somewhere. My boyfriend trained with Milton when he was based in California and he said Milton was an excellent instructor. We were in town as tourist celebrating the new year, so of course my boyfriend wanted to train with Milton and his family again and I’m SO GLAD WE DID. Everyone was SO friendly and welcoming, and Milton and his family were beyond professional and patient. I was pushed to learn quick and actually apply my strength which I LOVED! I received some personal training, and Milton was incredibly supportive and helpful; fixing my errors and explaining the self defense process of each move. My boyfriend was excited to train with Milton and his family again, and I’m so grateful this was my first experience with the sport. Additionally the studio is very clean and well maintained.

If you’re looking for a place to put your kids this is it!! We have had our 7&5 year old in classes for a few months now and he is hooked! They love all the teachers, ESPECIALLY Zach! Milton and Alex are fantastic as well! The whole team makes parents, children, and students feel very comfortable and welcome.
