“One of the most humbling, welcoming, and toughest teammates I have ever had the pleasure to train with. Professor Buiu is one of the most respected and nicest humans I have ever had the pleasure to bond with. Always look forward to training at Carlson Gracie Miami and would recommend this dojo to anyone that wants to learn, grow, compete, and stay healthy.”

“There is no other BJJ school in Miami that can compare. The level of training, the quality of instruction, the welcoming atmosphere and the most family friendly school you can find. Professor Buiù is one of a kind.”

“This dojo is filled with world class Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu athletes and instructors. I started training at this dojo on January 2016 and immediately felt welcomed by Buiu and the rest of this amazing community. I highly recommend Carlson Gracie Miami to any Miami local or traveler that wants to drop in.

“Amazing teachers/coaches. They all care for my 3 kids (2 boys and a girl) and it feels very personal, my kids love it, always looking forward for class and tough love do work here. Take the free class and you'll see what I mean, it's a different environment if you ever practiced any other discipline. Master Buiu, Ceviche, JP and Tarzan (funny names right?) are the main people in the classes and make you feel family, take a chance your children will later thank you.”

“I have been a part of this great team and family for 3 years now and nothing I can do will ever express the gratitude and respect I have for professor Buiu and the Ghost Squad Team. From the world champions to the lower belts everyone is respected and treated with the utmost respect, fairly and equally. It doesn't matter if you haven't trained in a few days, months or year. You are sure to always be received with a great welcoming and guidance in every aspect from training to life. This place deserves a 10 star for the value that it brings to your life.

“Can’t speak for anyone else but myself but, I absolutely love coming here Monday - Friday. With all the stress and obstacles life throws my way for 1 hour a day this is a place where all your worries fade and you are surrounded with positive, well-mannered, genuine people. From the professor himself to the parents on the sidelines. I’ve been coming since October 1st, 2017 and I’ve invited friends and family to check it out and they all love it.”

“I didn't know how much I needed Jiu Jitsu until I started training at this place and I never would’ve started if it wasn't because of the welcoming atmosphere you get from day one. Due to the respect and support you receive from everyone, at first I thought Professor Buiu was very selective picking out his students but now I see that his instruction shapes the minds of those who train under him. At this place is very easy to see how BJJ is for everyone. I recommend it to everyone I talk to because it has the potential to improve your approach to many aspects of life. My son trains with Professor JP and he hasn't missed a single week since he started. His BJJ lessons are as important as swimming lessons. He has learned respect and humility but more importantly he gets to apply those lessons every day he goes.”

Buiu is an amazing professor that answers all of your questions and does everything to help you succeed both in and out of the dojo. The ghost squad is a big family. The love and support is like nothing else.”
