Special Thank you To These Awesome Students That Already Left a Review

This BJJ academy in Portland is top-notch! A huge shoutout to Tristan for being so supportive and helpful throughout my onboarding – he made getting started a breeze. Meeting Professor Omar during orientation was a great experience, and my initial classes have me completely sold.”

“Mata Leao is a truly excellent gym, both for complete beginners and those who have a few years of experience. Omar and the rest of the instructors are knowledgeable and welcoming; fostering a community of people who embody the passion and dedication inherent in the art form.”

This place rocks. I drive almost an hour, past half a dozen other decent gyms to be here with the best. The best spot for kids, beginners and high level fighters alike. Professor Omar teaches in a way that is extremely digestible and insightful. Truly a level above whatever else you will find around. You will wish you started yesterday!”

“I’ve never been to a martial arts gym before so I was a bit worried starting out 6 months ago, but Mata Leao has the best coaches and training partners who help beginners and encourage them. If you’re wanting to get into BJJj, muay thai, etc then this is the best place to go!”

Reviews

“They have a few bags and a lot of workout equipment. Aside from Muay Thai and Jiu Jitsu they also offer strength training and conditioning classes. They have a great program for kids and my son loves it. He immediately felt a part of the group and has been learning a lot from the great instructors here.”

“I’ve had a great first experience with BJJ because of Mata Leao. I can’t stress how fun it is to be able to keep seeing progress. Part of the reason for being able to progress so well is thanks to coach Omar who is very enthusiastic about teaching which makes it easier to learn and remember certain techniques.

“Our grandson has been taking lessons for 3 years. This has been a great experience and he has grown in skill and confidence. Classes are fun and challenging and keep him wanting to keep learning. Omar Santiago is a great teacher and motivator.
