RMA Jiu Jitsu Westhaven

RMA is an amazing environment for learning authentic Brazilian Jujitsu. Professor John has been great with my son and myself with his knowledge and patience. Highly recommend to anyone looking to try it out.

Mighty Mites is hands-down the best! 🥋 Professor John has the patience of a saint—wrangling 3 to 5-year-olds is not an easy task, but he does it with so much grace and composure. We are so lucky to have him!

I have been doing Jiu Jitsu for 7 years now. I started when I was 59 years old in another state. I move to the Nashville area in Oct 2023. Prior to my move, I did substantial research about the local schools. After a few months of research I reached out to RMA. I was amazed as Professor Marcelo reached out to me by phone and we spent over a half hour chatting. Based on our conversation I felt RMA was for me. I started with RMA in Nov of 2023. I found the school to be absolutely perfect for what I was looking for and expecting. Professor Marcelo and his two sons John (black belt) and Gabe (Blue belt) have made my experience tremendous. The school is truly like a big family. Professor has implemented rules that help with that instill that his school is a for all family members. Anyone desiring to try Jiu Jitsu or changing schools, I highly recommend you give RMA a chance!

RMA Jiu Jitsu is an outstanding gym, and training under Professor Joao "John" Ribeiro is an honor. As a world champion in the prestigious Abu Dhabi World Professional Jiu-Jitsu Championship and many other tournaments, his expertise and dedication to teaching are unmatched. He has a unique ability to break down techniques clearly, making each class both challenging and inspiring. If you're looking to learn from the best, RMA Jiu-Jitsu is the place to be!

Sending my children to RMA is one of the best decisions I've ever made. After seeing how much my oldest son was getting from his time at RMA, I decided to become a student myself! After studying with Professor John and Professor Marcelo for 5+ years I can say without hesitation that RMA is a special place. Whether you want to learn an effective form of self defense, compete, or simply gain skill and confidence while becoming connected to an amazing community, RMA has what you need!
