Molinaro Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

There is no place else like Molinaro Jiu-Jitsu. I was so nervous before my first time training. I had no idea what I was getting into, but from the moment Alex called me back about my inquiry I could sense his warmth and excitement about Jiu-jitsu. His love of Jiu-jitsu, training, teaching, and continuing to grow is infectious and will drive you to want to do the same. I love the way he choses to structure his classes with and his nature of teaching. He is always open to answer questions and work with you on technique. Alex is extremely generous with his time and he is invested in the growth of his students. His other instructors deliver the same quality of high level, professional instruction as well. The gym has attracted members that are incredibly kind and welcoming. It is a space where we all want to see each other get better and have fun. As a woman, going into spaces that are largely male occupied can be intimidating, but since the moment I stepped into Molinaro Jiu Jitsu I’ve felt nothing but welcome and encouraged. As the gym continues to grow, so does the number of women members — making an already great gym to train at even better. If you’re thinking about training at any gym in Chicago (or really the surrounding area) it should be Molinaro Jiu Jitsu.
