HEVA BJJ

HEVA BJJ is a super welcoming academy with awesome instruction and clean facilities. Their BJJ program is strong with the Marcelo Alonso lineage to back it up. I highly recommend HEVA for people looking to train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in the Renton area.

I am Vietnamese. My son is 3 years and 8 months old. Before choosing this place to learn martial arts, I knew a lot of different places, but I don't understand why I chose this place, according to our Buddhist parlance, maybe it's because of our predestined relationship, more Seeing their pictures inspired me to choose them as my current place for my son to study. What is special in my eyes is that they are very attentive, enthusiastic and take great care of each students through the gestures and actions they guide for students. I am so happy and lucky to have met them, they have guided my son above all expectations, because my son does not understand English, they have to love kids how to express themselves like this. So, this is my chance to say thank you to them. Watching them teach students and witnessing them is also a time for us to feel how interesting this life is. Actually I am still so much things to say about them but temporary I stop here

I can’t say enough good things about HEVA BJJ! Highly recommended!! We scoped out a few different martial arts places and we are so lucky to have found HEVA. They offer kids and adults classes in a clean and very family friendly place. The coaches are amazing especially Coach Hoc & Coach Elizabeth. My son started a year ago and we’ve seen him grow immensely into a stronger and resilient young man. Surprisingly after watching my son practice for 10 months, it sparked an interest in me I never knew I had. It’s been fun thus far. We love it and you will too! Come see for yourself!

Absolutely the BEST Jiu Jitsu gym! Was my first time joining a class and brought my family to check the place out. Hoc, Elizabeth, and everyone in the class were incredibly welcoming! My 3 year old told me she wanted to come back again the next day right after the class was over! Unbelievable! Such a great community of awesome people! Whether you’re a long time Jiu Jitsu-er or a newbie like me, I cannot recommend this place enough! Such an awesome community and got some incredible training in!! Thanks Hoc and Elizabeth! You and your Jiu Jitsu community are doing great things!!! Will definitely be back!

I’ve had the chance to train at many gyms over the years during work travel, and this one truly stands out. Of all the gyms I’ve visited in King and Pierce Counties, this has been one of the best experiences I’ve had. Professor Hoc is exceptional. He brings a rare combination of kindness, patience, and deep technical knowledge to every class. He’s one of the most welcoming black belts I’ve ever met, and his ability to teach and break things down makes learning both enjoyable and productive. Whether you’re just starting your Jiu-Jitsu journey or looking for a new place to grow, I can’t recommend this gym highly enough. The environment is supportive, the instruction is top-tier, and Professor Hoc genuinely cares about helping students improve and fall in love with the art.
