Best jiu-jitsu school in the Pasadena and surrounding areas. Prof. Carlos is an absolutely top level competitor and will train you like no other. There's competition classes on Wed. 6am classes if needed and weekend comp classes at Pablo Silva BJJ in Belair. Bring lots of water/Gatorade.

Adult and kid classes offered. There are different skill levels and weight classes. Everyone trains hard and learns good technique under Prof. Carlos. Belt ranks are earned not given. Classes are structured and focused. Our team has good sportsmanship. Facilities are clean and sanitized daily. Family friendly environment. Highly recommend.

Wether you’re a seasoned competitor or a Dad just trying to be active and healthy, United BJJ has been a blessing.The competition atmosphere is there. Prof. Carlos treats every student with respect, he communicates about any changes, expectations and tournaments. The facilities are probably the best if not the best in Houston.The coaching staff is the best. Smiles everywhere!!!You will NOT be disappointed!!

Awesome school. Convenient location and easy to get to. Professor Carlos is very knowledgeable and actually leads by example, because he actively participates in each class he teaches. The students there are very friendly and welcoming. This school will help your BJJ game grow, regardless of your experience level. No one has an ego over here, which is common in other gyms. There’s a family like atmosphere. Also, this school is very Military Veteran friendly. I served in the Military. I have some anxiety from my service. The Professor and training partners do their best to make you feel as comfortable as possible. I am proud to call this my home gym. Highly Recommended. Osss.

My daughter and I trained with Carlos in his humble beginnings. We *loved* training under his excellent tutelage and with his amazing team. Sadly we had to leave when we moved out of state for work, but when we return to Houston we will be returning to Carlos to continue supporting what he's been building. I hope to have my younger kids start training with him some day too.

Professional, well mannered, and passionate. That’s how I would sum up the head instructor at United Jiujitsu in three words. Carlos goes above and beyond his role as a coach for his students. Always leading from the front as well not just directing. That’s what I would look for in a coach.

So I have been on the hunt for a good Jiu jitsu school for my kids a place that works them out and trains them. What I was running into with a lot of schools in the area, is that they employ a lot of gimmicks and to much time spent on entertaining kids instead of live training, and if you are like me that is not what you want your kids . My kids love it here and I could not be more happy with the people that run it.

If you are looking for a school to train bjj...Don't look any further, Coach Carlos is a good instructor and the adult & kid programs are a good start to get in shape and learn the art. Give him and the school a try, you wont regret it!

I had never trained jiu jitsu before and was nervous about trying it out, but Carlos and the team we extremely kind and welcoming. After a few classes I felt like a part of the family and fell in love with the sport. I would recommend this gym to any and everyone, I promise you won’t find a better place to train.
