Both of our sons ages 5 and 6 have been going to Pedro Soriano BJJ for about four months now and we couldn't be more impressed. We've tried soccer, T-ball, gymnastics...you name it. Nothing stuck. Until this! PSBJJ has become like a second home to us. The instructors are incredible with the kids and their instruction goes far beyond just the mechanics of BJJ. They teach gratitude, mindfulness, respect, non-violent techniques to deter bullies, and so much more. My kids have come leaps and bounds from when they first started and we are continually impressed with the professionalism and fun of this place. My husband even wanted to buy a house in Long Beach and I said no because we cannot move away from Sensei and Coach Toro! They are truly one of a kind here. Thank you to Sensei and everyone at PSBJJ!

We are so thankful for Pedro and the entire community at Pedro Soriano Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu! Our son started going twice a week at the age of five. We have seen him grow so much physically and socially in the past year! He takes his practice seriously and is learning so much about patience, perseverance, growth mindset, and respect! I look forward to watching him continue to grow with Pedro for many more years!

As both a mother and a teacher, I would enthusiastically recommend training with Pedro Soriano and his coaches, as this has made an incredible difference in my son’s life this year. The motivation level of all of the students in the class is so high, they are truly excited because they know that class will be fun. I checked out several places before deciding on where to go, and what stood out to me was the fact that Sensei Pedro and his coaches are very actively teaching and monitoring the students for perfect form and improvement, along with the level of happiness that every person in the class has. This is because of his teaching style which includes some humor and a very relatable way for anyone to learn. There is a strong respect for Brazilian jujitsu, and a genuine sense of family as everyone is explicitly taught to appreciate and respect each other, as Pedro truly leads by example in showing respect to all students and their families. This is not a place to try out, this is a place to commit to, because anyone who joins will certainly want to stay, and will look forward to every session.
