    My family and I have been training Brazilian JiuJitsu for over 3 years. We always look forward to seeing Master Eduardo and our friends in class and learning new techniques. Master Eduardo is great with all the kids and breaks down even the most complex moves into something the children can understand. Your child's safety is his first concern. You absolutely cannot find a more authentic BJJ academy anywhere else in the area and you definitely would not find a school where the kids and adults classes are taught by a World Champion black belt.

    What a great place for my son to learn BJJ! Everyone here is so nice and makes you feel part of a family. The prices are good and Master Eduardo teaches the kids so much. I highly recommend this place and definitely 5 stars! Thank you for your kindness and always making me feel like my child is your top priority.

    Top facility with great instruction under Prof. Eduardo Gonçalves, who is a world class competitor and great coach who cares about the students. Academy very friendly atmosphere and great for kids and adults. Prof. Edu have been teaching for years and for sure the best place around south Florida to put your kids to learn new skills and life long values. I have been in the sport over 26 years and I highly recommend this place. André “Tim” Monteiro 4th Degree Black Belt

    I’ve had the privilege of working under Professor Eduardo Goncalves’ tutelage since I was a Blue Belt. I’m now currently a Brown Belt and have NO DESIRE to go elsewhere as I aspire to obtain my Black Belt. Professor Edu is an awesome teacher, his gym has a very nice family atmosphere, and we all enjoy our time at the gym at outside the gym when we get together to fellowship, laugh, and enjoy ourselves. If you’re thinking about a great place to train and be around good people with a GREAT Coach, “Palm Martial Arts” is the place… ❤️❤️

    There is a quote that says “I am a shark, the ground is my ocean, and most people don’t know how to swim.” At Palm Martial Arts you will learn to swim from some of the best coaches. Coach Edu will teach you and your children the love of BJJ and for that I will always be grateful.

    PMA’s kids program that I had the pleasure of observing was truly exceptional. From the moment I walked in, I could tell that the instructors were passionate about teaching young students the principles of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and helping them develop their skills and confidence. One thing that really stood out to me about this program was the way that the instructors interacted with the kids. They were patient, kind, and always took the time to explain techniques in a way that was easy for the kids to understand. They also made sure to tailor their instruction to the individual needs and abilities of each child, so that everyone felt comfortable and supported. The kids themselves were also impressive. They were focused and engaged, and clearly enjoyed learning new techniques and practicing their skills. I was amazed by how quickly they picked up on the different moves and how well they were able to apply them in sparring sessions. Additionally, to teaching the physical aspects of BJJ the instructors also emphasized the importance of respect, discipline, and teamwork. The kids were encouraged to support one another and work together to achieve their goals, which created a strong sense of camaraderie and community. Overall, I would highly recommend PMA’s kids program to any parent looking to help their child develop their skills, build confidence, and become part of a supportive and positive community. With skilled and dedicated instructors, a fun and engaging curriculum, and a focus on values like respect and teamwork, this program truly stands out as one of the best.

    I've been training here for almost 2 years now. The atmosphere is here is way better than other gyms I've tried. The training partners are also great, everyone is nice and willing to help you learn. I highly recommend people trying this gym.

    Palm Martial Arts is the best BJJ school in town for kids and adults. Sensei Eduardo is very high level and a great teacher for all levels from beginners to advanced competitors! If you are in the Pembroke Pines area and are thinking about training jiu jitsu look nowhere else.

    This is an excellent Martial Arts Academy I highly recommend. My son has only been attending for two weeks and in such a little time I have seen great improvements in my sons behavior , Coach Eduardo and Coach Andy are excellent with children and patient showing them not only Martial Arts techniques but also focus on teaching kids how to be respectful and discipline in all they do.

    After years of being part of Palm Martial Arts Academy, I can proudly say this is the BEST gym. Between the dedication, professionalism, and devotion to all members there’s truly no other gym I’d rather have my kids be in. It’s been several years of having my kids train traditional Jiujitsu with Master Eduardo, they have gained so much confidence, discipline, strength and most importantly lifelong friendships. Seeing my kids now compete and have passion for the sport and continue to thrive under the guidance of top of the line professors is something words can never describe. Highly recommended! Parents bring your kids! Teens and adult classes as well! This place has become our second home, it’s members have become part of our family. As a facility second to none!!

    We are so happy to have found Palms for our kids. The gym is a clean and safe environment, there are classes for all skill levels and at convenient times, and most importantly, the instructors are friendly, knowledgeable, and care about each and every one of their students. The coaches emphasis on not just skills but also respect, leadership, determination, self confidence and self respect make the lessons our kids learn apply to more than just the jiu jitsu sport itself, but also school and family life. And the family atmosphere has our kiddos asking to go to as many classes as possible. Couldn't ask for a better place for our kids to train, or for more caring and passionate coaches.

    This is by far the best place you could take your child for martial arts training! Also a great place to train for adults who want to learn Brazilian Jui Jitsu! The instructor and owner Eduardo is one of the most kindest, extraordinary person you will ever meet, and an excellent Master! I highly recommend this place, I loved training here, they make you feel like family no matter who you are and would recommend everyone I know to here! Beginners to Intermediate!

    This gym is really great!!! Coach Eduardo has a talent with kids! I've never seen any coach with such ease on getting kids to train, even the 5 year olds. The gym is very organized and clean. You feel the welcoming atmosphere immediately when you walk in. Coaches and parents all work in harmony to ensure children's progress in jiu jitsu. In a world so messed up, it's a blessing to have places like this to teach kids the value of hard work and discipline. The cost of tuition is very affordable. The communication at the gym is excellent. I think as parents you'll be glad that you send your kids there for training.

    Both Eduardo & Maria (owners) love what they do. Maria keeps everything clean, organized and the communication is excellent. We live about 30 minutes away, and could not imagine going anywhere else. Both of our children have been with Palm Martial Arts since they opened, they have grown so much in the sport and it has also helped them to form character. Master Eduardo is an amazing teacher/human also teaches them life lessons. We are proud members of Palm Martial Arts family!
