My son attended a children’s BJJ class while we were on holiday in Zurich. He really enjoyed the class and left with a huge smile on his face. The coaches and owner were professional, kind and cared about the kids. The gym was very clean and easy to get to. If we lived in the area we would be members for sure!


My sons are very happy and motivated visiting Frota Academy. The best Brazilian Jiu Jitsu coaches and nice, comfortable place! Thank you, guys, for your job and energy!
