Solid instruction, people, and overall vibe. The Head Professor knows his stuff and can teach it to adults and kids very effectively. Apex is the best BJJ school I’ve come across. My whole family now does BJJ, including my wife who is now a blue belt. She said she would never train when me and my girls started. 😂😂

We have a 5 year old and a 7 year old who attends Apex Academy and coach Cleidson Ramos is kind, patience, compassionate and he treats the kids like his very own. The gym is clean, the kids have so much fun and every one is respectful of one another. We are so happy to finally put our kids in a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu class and Apex Academy is like home for my kids.

We’ve been doing bjj with Coach Cleidson for about 2 years now thanks to our good friends who recommended us to trial a class. We’re glad he has his own gym where he continues to teach our kids the skills they need in order to protect themselves if ever needed. Overall the Apex Family has always been so welcoming and kind to one another. It’s definitely a family atmosphere! If you’re looking for a place, stop looking and join the Apex Family!

Apex has top notch instruction with Cleidson Ramos at the helm. However this academy is not just about reaching your peak performance - its also about family and the pursuit of making yourself a better person. As a woman, practicing BJJ at Apex has felt safe, increased my self confidence, and given me a greater sense of community.

If you’re looking for great training, a good workout, and a family or brotherhood environment, Apex Vacaville is the place to come. I moved to the area and tried a few other gyms but I can say ApexBJJ stands-out from the rest. They took me in from the start; like the brotherhood I had in the military. Definitely a five start school.

Great professor and community. We do the kids classes (3-5, 6-9) and the adult. Very comfortable environment and more exercise than I originally anticipated. Kids doing well with the discipline/instruction and making great friends.

Excellent academy for kids and adults! My son and I started training with Professor Cleidson in May 2020. He is professional, dedicated, knowledgeable, and promotes a family atmosphere. Most importantly, he teaches the kids about discipline and respect, through the core principles of: 1. Family 2. School 3. Training

My sons confidence is thru the roof!! I love how the coaches DO NOT PLAY. My son needs confidence and discipline and thats exactly what he gets. I love that he gets excited about training every day. Definitely a place to consider for Jujitsu, I couldnt be happier.

Apex BJJ and Professor Ramos are amazing. My daughter has been training with Professor Ramos for 8 months and the progression in her able to be more confident in herself has drastically improved. I recently started attending the adult fundamentals class and love every bit of it. The professor and students are welcoming and foster a supportive learning environment. I would recommend Apex BJJ to anyone that is looking for an Jiu Jitsu Academy.

Our 6 year old daughter has been training with Professor Cleidson Ramos since August 2021. We signed her up for BJJ in hopes of her gaining self defense, confidence and social skills, and we are happy to see she is making progress in all areas. Coach Cleidson is a professional and patient teacher who pushes you to work hard and give your best effort. Apex is a wonderful family oriented environment where learning is fun and focused.

This review will cover baby sharks and adult classes!We have been attending Apex since October. My son is in the baby shark class and has learned more in a few short months, than he has than the last year elsewhere.The gym is clean. It looks clean, it smells clean, and you can even witness cleaning in between classes.Baby Sharks:There are two adults managing the baby shark class, they do not allow nor teach chokes at this level, and they even have teens that are very knowledgable assisting.Each group is heavily monitored. The class, though only 30 minutes, is absolutely jam packed. They normally do a warm up (like running, a counting game, and some body movements). Then its usually technique, drills, and sparring.There is little opportunity for your little one to get TOO distracted because there isnt much time in-between each transition. There are plenty of hands so kids arent just sitting around waiting. And they are working! My kid always comes out sweaty.What I will say, is I appreciate the way the professors calm a meltdown. There is no yelling, there is no shaming. Its a low voice, with expectations and consequence. Whether it be no sparring that day, or whatever. The kids are constantly being asked by the instructors: Whats #1 and they respond FAMILY! #2 SCHOOL! #3 FAMILY/JIUJITSUI just really love and appreciate the emphasis on correction, discipline, and respect.Adult class:I never imagined I myself trying, but after a gf said she tried it and loved it, she asked me to come to the womens class. I did, and I havent looked back. I have no skills in this, I have no special athleticism, and yet.... here I am. grinding my way through. Its not easy... but its so fun, and the camaraderie this gym has built is unmatched. You will get thrown in, but its a safe environment. Its constant refinement in technique. And maybe some self awareness on the students end!The womens group alone is full of classy, wonderful ladies who will absolutely demolish you.... but in a good way. They are friendly, they are knowledgable, and they have inspired me to continue. I strive to learn, get better, and be a good training partner.So this was a lengthy way to say, that if youre on the fence about it... just do it. Leave your ego behind and just go for it. Age, sex, whatever. None of it matters. Just be teachable.

It changed my life! Whether you use Brazillian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) competitively, recreationally, or for self-defence Apex BJJ has everything to offer. I’ve been training for over little more than two years. Not only was I welcomed by a group of people with open arms the owner Cleidson takes care of each of his student’s journey to maximize their goals. Cleidson puts his students ahead of everything making sure to create a safe and fun training environment. From little kids to adults, Apex BJJ creates this unity among people to make a family feeling every time I walk in the gym making it hard to not come in the very next day!

I’d been away from the mats for awhile and there was not a doubt in my mind that Alex was where I wanted to be. Coach Ramos runs a fantastic gym with a family approach that makes BJJ accessible even for older guys like me. He’s great with the little ones too, just stop in and observe his patient and caring approach to teaching BJJ to kids while keeping them safe. Please come check us out, we’d love to have you!

If you are looking for a great place to learn self defense and make friends, then Apex Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Academy is the place for you! The coach is very experienced and cares about his students. You will not only get a great workout but also become part of a community where others will also help you advance along your Jiu Jitsu journey. This gym is great for for all ages! There are several classes throughout the week to fit your schedule. Come try out a class or 2!

I was referred to Apex by a friend and I’m so glad I went! Knowing nothing about jujitsu I was welcomed into this school. Professor Ramos has created a family friendly and easy to understand learning environmen with a flexible schedule for kids and adults. Everyone there feels like a friend and they all help you to learn with great patience especially for beginners. As a woman it’s been a comfortable stress free place, they feature all women’s classes which are my favorite, and there are lots of women in this school and all the men are very respectful as is Professor Ramos, who takes the time to encourage and get to know each of his students. It’s has made so many positive changes in my life as far as my mental health, weight loss, strength and confidence. I’m so grateful.

My son was being bullied in school and we were looking to teach him self defense. After coming for almost a year, my 13 year old has a new found confidence in who he is and has made friends as well. Professor is patient, and teaches the kids problem solving and how to handle their emotions in a safe environment. It’s honestly the best decision we’ve made and the growth in my son’s happiness and maturity is priceless.

We love Apex, when you come in everyone is like a family. They are so welcoming and really make you feel like you belong. Our daughter has been thriving with Jiu-jitsu we can see her self confidence as a young woman just being built up every time we go. I highly recommend Apex to everyone.

This review is long over due, but this is the BEST Jiu Jitsu gym I’m the area hands down! Coach Cleidson is the most patient person I have ever met. Our two kids 5 year old boy and 7 year old girl have both been with Coach Cleidson for almost 3 years now. We’re happy to say that now my wife and I are also part of the Apex family! If you are looking for a place that is very welcoming, pushes you gently to grow, and treats you feel like family, than this is the place! Best part is that the owner AND the coach are the same person which speaks volumes!

We signed our 6 year old son up in October 2022. We couldnt be happier with the academy, Professor is amazing with the kids and Tommy is excited to go everyday! I signed myself up a month ago and am equally excited to go each day. We really appreciate the family friendly environment and couldn’t be more impressed with the gym!

I have been to many BJJ gyms over my 8 years of training and I can say that Professor Cleidson is a world class BJJ instructor. He is not only great at all the skills it takes to create top notch Jiu Jitsu players but also skilled off the mat at creating a welcoming and friendly environment where anyone can come and learn.

Cleidson Ramos is a phenomenal Jiu Jitsu professor and all-around great person. He puts his whole heart into teaching Jiu Jitsu, and the degree to which he cares about his students is unmistakable. I was very nervous starting Jiu Jitsu as a woman in my late 30s with no martial arts experience, but Professor Cleidson has always made me feel welcome in class. He makes me feel as though hes genuinely happy that Im there.I wish I had started Jiu Jitsu earlier in my life for many reasons, but one of the main reasons is the phenomenal people I have had the opportunity to meet. A good Jiu Jitsu family is like no other team. The Apex students are a perfect example of this. What a fun, inspiring, and supportive group of people. No matter how tired or stressed I might be, I never regret showing up, and I always go home feeling better than before I stepped onto the mats.Its hard to describe how much stronger I feel now than before I started Jiu Jitsu because the difference is so stark, but physical strength is only part of it. I feel mentally stronger and more confident across different areas of my life. Two years into my training, Jiu Jitsu has absolutely changed my life for the better. I feel very lucky to have found Professor Ramos on Day One of my Jiu Jitsu journey, and even luckier to be part of Apex BJJ.

I am honored to give Apex BJJ a well-deserved 5 star review. We are so proud of Professor Cleidson Ramos in his endeavors and successes in opening his own BJJ academy! My 5-year-old son has been training with Professor Cleidson for over a year since his work at a previous facility, and he chose to follow his Coach to his new gym when it opened. My husband, too, became inspired to start his own BJJ journey and now trains at Apex as well (when he earned his first stripe, our son said, “I’m so proud of you Daddy! You’re catching up to me! 🤣). Our younger daughter, who just turned 2, can’t wait to start training with Coach next year and has been asking for her “own gi.”Professor Cleidson has a great depth of knowledge, skill, and experience, and has mastered the art of being able to transfer his knowledge to his students—from brand-new 3-year-olds to well-seasoned black belts. He has created a safe, clean, family-friendly environment where you feel welcome from the second you walk in the door. He has taught his students and their families to become a community whose members support each other and celebrate each other’s successes. He instills confidence in addition to teaching skills, and it is amazing to see how much my son has grown since he started training. Older students from the teens class come to the “baby sharks” class to help train and mentor the younger children, further building self-confidence and integrating the family feel.Professor Cleidson teaches that BJJ is a lifestyle, and it is clear that he lives true to this statement. He isn’t the typical businessman and though he provides exceptional quality service, nothing about the business feels like it is about the money. There are no contracts or extra fees, and Professor Cleidson gives back to his community, often holding children’s events with no extra charge and offering free classes to teens who wish to train but can’t afford it. We’ve brought friends and family visiting from out of town to Apex classes to try it out, and Professor Cleidson has always welcomed them and never charged a penny.I proudly recommend Apex BJJ Academy without reservation. Check it out! You’ll be happy you joined the Apex Fam. Thanks Coach for all you do! 😊🏆

Cleidson is a fantastic coach. He is very knowledgeable and can cater what he teaches to your personal strengths and weaknesses. Apex has a great family atmosphere and is a great school for kids, hobbyists and competitors. My entire family trains here and we all love it. He gives you 100% regardless if youre a casual or hardcore. Best place to train in The Vacaville, Fairfield, Suisun area!

Coach Cleidson is the man. This gym is clean, safe, and tremendously fun. If you are on the fence about tying Bjj this is the place to start. Any age skill level or goal professor Ramos is there for you. I had to move away but this gym and coach are about the only things I miss.

APEX is amazing. My family has had a wonderful experience. Professor Cleidson Ramos is a fantastic teacher for all age levels. I am 45 and started just a few months ago. I was not in great shape, but with the encouragement of Professor Cleidson and the training partners and friends Ive met, I am now in pretty good shape and excited to keep learning this wonderful art. My children are also in the kids and teen classes and love it. They were hesitant to start, but after the first week, they were hooked. BJJ at Apex is special and about building relationships through training, setting goals, and being a humble learner.

Cleidson has been instructing our 2 kids in jiu-jitsu the last 2 years. He is a great teacher, welcoming, and very patient with our young kids. I highly recommend anyone who is new to martial arts or looking for something to get your kids involved in to check out Apex BJJ.

My wife and I recently visited this academy as my step-daughter and her family all train here. We were welcomed warmly for the two classes we attended. The instruction was top-notch and the students were very welcoming. Everyones jiu-jitsu was very good, which speaks volumes as to the quality of the instruction. Great local school.

My daughter has been training under Professor Cleidson for a year and a half. She has learned so much this past year and a half. I put her in jiu jitsu for self confidence and to be a good sport if you lose. Her first class ever she was intimidated and cried but she stuck with it and now will be doing her first tournament. She loves her peers her coach. She understands the respect of the sport. When Apex opened in September I decieded to become a member. Professor Cleidson started the fundamentals class for beginners which I love all belt ranks do the fundamentals and help the newer students a. If you are looking for your kid to do some sort of MMA jiu jitsu and apex is the way to go. If you are an adult looking for some physical excersise apex. I personally love the physical excersise and gain knowledge in self defense .

The coach at Apex is second to none. He is unbelievably professional, an amazing athlete and leader, he’s compassionate, patient, and is always welcoming and willing to work with each and every person that steps into Apex. I remember when I first walked into the gym (almost a year ago) I was greeted with a smile and a brief introduction. Even though it was my first day, Professor Cleidson Ramos treated me as if I belonged at Apex the whole time- almost as if he was honored that I was there.If you’re thinking about joining any BJJ community, this is the one you need to be a part of. A lot of BJJ gyms refer to their student and coach community as family, but this one is completely different. Every individual that steps into Apex, no matter the belt level, is always willing to lend a helping hand and all carry an equally humble demeanor. Their is no ego here- people that join Apex pride themselves on making themselves better, not being better than others. And you can feel that even after your first day.I could go on and on about Cleidson and the community he’s fostered around him, but in all honesty, he deserves all the respect and gratitude one could give.TL/DR:If you are looking for a BJJ gym that is more of a Home than a gym, than Apex is for you. Cleidson Ramos is an outstanding coach and he won’t only teach you to become great at BJJ, he’ll teach you how to become a great person as well.

I met Professor Cleidson in 2008, when I was still a blue belt. I had the pleasure of training with him and having him as my teacher. Undoubtedly, Apex has a great professor at the head of the work. He is an extremely dedicated professional to jiu-jitsu and his students, always looking for his own evolution but taking everyone with him, always raising the level of jiu-jitsu. I highly recommend Apex BJJ. Whoever trains there will not regret it, because it is sure to have a lot of training, techniques and strength. Oss.

Apex Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a great community, as well as a great team too! What a great environment and atmosphere to be in! Since being here, I felt a lot of growth in not just my ground and stand-up game on the mat, but other aspects of my growth were that of just being a better individual. These have been the perks of being at Apex BJJ. Thank you.

I’ve been doing Jiu jitsu for many years now and this by far has been the best experience with the coach and with everyone training. Cleidson treats you like family and only does what’s best for ALL of his students. He is second degree black belt with allot of competition experience under his belt. I personally have never got as much knowledge as I have from him. APEX family💪🏻

Apex, is absolutely amazing!! Cleidson Ramos has been my professor for a little over two years and within those years I have became more confident with in my own ability to protect myself and my children.Cleidson Ramos has created an environment in the gym where there is no bullying, there is honored and respected. When I go there its like going to a second home because we are all very close with each other and he’s the one who is Helped created that environment.My two Childeren attend now 10 yr daughter and 7 yrs son. I know my Childeren are in good hands learning not only to protect themselves but life lessons of perseverance, respect, controlling strength, confidante, joy and so much more. I will be doing BJJ for the rest of my life and I hope cleidson Ramos will always be my Professor. Oss👊🏾

Professor Cleidson is genuinely invested in each and every member. He knows my name/face and if I’ve been missing for a while. Very personable instructor, also. I plan to bring my children when they become of age. Awesome place to train for the hobbyist or competitor; adults and/or children. Whatever you’re looking for, you wont be disappointed with APEX bjj in Vacaville. -Dave

I’ve been working with Professor Cleidson Ramos for a little under 2 years. This is the first jiujitsu professor I’ve worked under. When I first met Cleidson not only did he welcome me with open arms but so did everyone else in the gym. When you train with Cleidson you will receive detailed instruction. He’s someone who thoroughly explains the movement and he keeps everything fundamentally based so all people, experienced or not, can understand. Come train at APEX you will not be disappointed.

APEX BJJ Academy is truly an APEX of jiujitsu training and culture. Professor Cleidson is very caring of his students and ensures that his students are making progress. The techniques that he teaches are really exceptional and practical.The gym is filled with great people that are very friendly and lives up to the culture that Professor Cleidson seeded in all his students. This is a great jiujitsu gym for anyone looking to start or looking to advance their jiujitsu.

Best Jiu Jitsu in Vacaville area. Professor Cleidson has created a great family environment. I highly recommend training here over the others in the area.

Apex is an awesome place to train. When I started training at Apex in October, I was completely new to BJJ. Professor Cleidson and others were very friendly and welcoming. I’m glad I joined Apex because not only have I received top notch instruction and fitness, I’ve got to meet a great group of people along the way.

When I first met professor Cleidson he was a fifteen years old boy who quickly got respect from all mates in the mat. His dedication and passion for jiujitsu turned him into one of the best in the gym in a few time. I was older and blue belt already and recall well all amaizing training match we had. In the course of time he got more and more skilled and stronger than myself and after many years he ended up promoting me to black belt before going to US. For you here is my thank you professor.

Over the years, Professor Cleidson Ramos has been a positive influence in my life. From martial arts to advice on nutrition, exercise, rest, etc., his mentorship has molded me into the best version of myself.Professor Ramos “walks the walk and talks the talk”. Meaning, the techniques he teaches his students during class, he executes in competition at the prestigious level (i.e., International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation, etc.)Not only is he a champion in competition, he is a champion in life.Professor Cleidson Ramos produces champions on and off the mat.Most importantly, he is utterly invested in his students. He really cares about you!Thank you!

I’ve been training under Professor Cleidson for nearly a year, and since day one have felt part of the family. Not only is the instruction world-class, but so is everyone at the gym.Whether you’re looking to compete, or just learn self defense, you’ll get detailed instruction from Professor Cleidson as well as training partners that’ll work with you at your speed.
