Finding a good BJJ school in L.A. is like finding water in the middle of a lake.Just about everywhere from what I hear.

We's got the best outside of Rio.
And that ain't no lie.
A BJJ school on every corner here. At least it seems that way.

You want big names, Gracie's of course. You want great instructors, we got 'em.

Just depends on what you want.

Like I said before, I can go to just about any place to train, from Rickson, Torrance, Machdos, RAW...etc. and I choose Rey Diogo.

Rey Diogo all the way, baby!!!!!!!!

Add me to the Rey Diogo list (and I don't even live in California!)

When i've travelled to LA on business, I'm able to train anywhere I want, and I would choose Rey, hands down.

Then again, at my skill level, I could train with
"Rapha" and learn a lot!

[whaledog]

Wow, there's a lot of love for Rey on this forum.

Rey?

Man, I feel like I'm missing out on something here. I work at Sony Pictures, mere blocks from his school. Maybe I'll stop by. When's a good time?

[andreh anderson]

athom,

Which location are you close to?

He teaches at a school on Culver Blvd, and one on Pico. The schedule can be found at http://www.ouano.com/reydiogo.

I try to make it 6 days a week, and I enjoy both locations equally. My favorite nights, however, are Fridays since we seem to train forever.
Email me anytime if you have any questions: andrehanderson@hotmail.com

Rey Diogo is a great choice if yer in LA... he is a gifted teacher, has cool students, is a great guy... Just watch out for his wife. She is kind of crazy.

If yer in Orange County:




AUGUSTO-BORAN BJJ !!!!

Next time Hura sees you, she is going to choke you out.

It's not nice to insult the wife of a black belt.

Especially when she's a purple belt.
