Marcelo Mattos BJJ / Carlson Gracie Team PA

Dec 2023

This is a wonderful place to train and feel like part of a family. My niece and nephew love it and it has helped them so much. The best part about this place though is that you are welcomed and treated as family. I would recommend this place for jui jitsu over any other.

Great BJJ gym just outside Carlisle Barracks. Professor Mattos is an outstanding instructor of Brazilian jiujitsu who cares deeply about his students. He and his team made me feel like part of the family during my short 3 month stay in the area. The gym also has a large number of skilled students who can help push advanced practitioners to the next level. I learned a lot in that limited amount of time.Given the welcoming environment and the emphasis on safe (but effective) learning, this would be a great place to start BJJ for those who have never tried it before. I highly recommend.

I have been attending this BJJ gym for just under a year and absolutely love it! I have attended BJJ gyms all over the country and this place does everything they can to meet the individual needs of each athlete! My son also attended here and developed increased skill and overall discipline! Strongly recommend!
