I recently joined the VA Academy about a month ago. I’m very new to bjj and was training at another Academy prior and I can honestly say I have found my Jujitsu home!!Everyone I have met has been incredibly helpful and I have learned so much already. I look forward to every class and I’m very thankful that such an incredible Academy is this close to me. Thank you ??

I really like this place. I was very nervous prior coming to this gym, but once I got here I found everyone very friendly and welcoming. There’s a camaraderie here that keeps me coming back. It’s a safe space, the mats are clean, and everyone shows up ready to work.Professor Agudo is an excellent instructor and has cultivated a culture to be proud of. He explains the details of not only how but the why of the moves. I feel lucky to have found this place

We paid for a year tuition upfront in order to receive a discount. Then our son wasn’t able to continue after a month due to medical concerns. They refused to refund any of the tuition and just said “you signed the contract.” They would not even discuss a partial refund, which seems like good customer relations, given the circumstances. Guess we made a $1300 donation.

Every time I visit Vinny's academy, everything is pristine and clean from the front desk to the mats. In regards to the training, he is an excellent leader and coach for his students and brings in additional World-Class talent from other parts of the World to come share their techniques. One of the best gyms in DFW

Amazing place to train. Facilities are so clean, pristine, and welcoming. Vinny, the owner, will take great care of you. If you’re in the area, this is definitely the spot to train. The other students were also very welcoming and helpful with sharing their knowledge as well. Highly recommended!!

Prof Agudo is without a doubt one of the finest teachers I have ever had the privilege to learn from. The details he reveals are what makes the difference from being good, to great. He now has a facility that is on par with his skill set. He is equal fantastic with young people as he is with pro fighters. VABJJ is for everyone, stay at home mothers, weekend warriors, kids and avid competitors, they all have a home at VABJJ! Edit: with the new remodel, the already amazing facility took it even a step FURTHER! Love it!

I’m Jiu-Jitsu black belt and have known Mr Agudo since his time in Massachusetts and seeing him on the scene here.He’s always been quality time kind of person where he cares about you and what you’re looking to improve upon. If it comes to life issues he is someone with a big heart.If I had children he is someone I feel very comfortable with teaching them for what lies ahead on and off the mat.As a competitor he has been very successful and certainly someone you want on your side when you’re going to compete or test yourself.Can’t recommend enough if you’re in the area!

WORLD CLASS GYM!!! We are beyond fortunate to have VA JJ & Professor Vinicius Agudo right here in Wylie. I drive 30 - 40 minutes to make it to class & will drive any amount of time no matter where I plan to live in the DFW area.I promise you VA JJ is the best JJ gym in all of DFW and it's only going to get better! I recently moved from Orange County California & have trained at what is considered some of the best gyms in the area and world. (Checkmat HQ, AOJ, Atos, Legion, ONE, Cobrinha, Ateam, & the list goes on.) Professor Vinicius Agudo is blessing us & the people of DFW with access to a level of JJ that not many people get to partake in.The level of care & teaching Professor Agudo is providing is unparalleled and a gift to anyone who walks through these doors. I've been training for over 10 years and have dreamed of being a part of a gym like VA JJ.VA JJ is exceptional in everything it offers. The moment you walk in you are brought into a immaculate gym with beautiful amenities & training space. Bathrooms are stunningly clean and prepped to provide everything you'd need to be hygienic. The classes are all taught passionately by Professor Agudo giving you the attention & details that many other gyms don't have the patience to show.Please visit, I promise you will surely enjoy your experience at VA JJ!

Can’t say enough about how kind Professor Agudo is. His gym is immaculate and he is so welcoming! I was in town for a competition and he opened up his gym to everyone from out of town. Beautiful space. 15/10 will be back!
