Very impressed with teaching style.  My son loves his classes.  Teaching focus and discipline, while learning techniques.  He started with 2x per week.  He asked to go 3x per week.
I highly recommend if you have a very energetic kid who needs focus and discipline in a fun environment.  The professor is super patient.

I made the drive from downtown Vancouver to check out the Gracie Barra Maple Ridge facility after hearing great things, and it did not disappoint. Professor Rapha met me at the door with a smile and gave me a tour — the place is impressive. The mat is huge, so you’re not constantly worried about crashing into training partners while you spar, and everything looks brand new.

I’ve trained with Professor Rapha for years and can say firsthand that he is extremely high level. What really sets him apart is his genuine love for jiu-jitsu and the way that passion comes through when he’s working with younger students. If you’re in the Maple Ridge area, it’s well worth a visit.

Started jiu jitsu as a 43 year old man and I’ve fallen in love with the sport. Professor Raphael is extremely kind and caring as well as a knowledgeable and skilled teacher. The team is very welcoming and it’s a great place to come get some exercise and learn some new skills.

Our whole family goes to this gym. Raphael is a great instructor with a clear passion for teaching. He is excellent with the kids and has supported me as an adult learner (learning a brand new skill). The gym is very clean and welcoming. Family friendly place! I recommend to anyone.
