Brazilian Jiu Jitsu And Muay Thai in Northridge, CA

Professor Erika has coached my son for the past three years and we could not be more grateful to have her as a continuing presence in his life. There is no denying the love and care that she shows her students (my son absolutely adores her), but as a parent, she offers something that feels increasingly rare these days… Erika is not afraid to show some tough love! Since she is genuinely invested in her students’ growth as both athletes and people, she consistently pushes them out of their comfort zone. Bottom line: Erika is the best!"

What started as a mere interest in having our boys learn a marital art, turned into a love and appreciation for this amazing sport that we never could’ve imagined. This is due in large part to Professor Erika. We have never met a coach quite like her. For Erika, it’s more than just teaching, it’s a passion. She invests in the lives of her students and has an incredible gift of connection… taking the time to get to know each of them, and meeting them where they are at, not just in training, but also, socially and emotionally. Erika uses Brazilian Jiu-jitsu as a means to instill hard work, patience, diligence, perseverance, and sportsmanship. She leads by example, that it is not only about learning the art, but through training and instruction, she emphasizes the importance of grit and building character through enduring/overcoming challenges and difficult situations, which also translates into valuable life lessons off the mat. Erika is truly one of a kind. We absolutely love and respect her, and could not have asked for a better coach for our kids.

LOVE it here. So clean and everyone is so friendly! All the coaches and professors are so caring and kind. My entire family loves training here!

We are so grateful to have found Legacy West Valley Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu! After being at another studio for 10 months, we recently made the move here, and the difference has been incredible. In just one month, both my daughter and son have learned more than they ever did at our previous studio.

Professor Erika and her amazing team are exceptional in their teaching approach. They combine professionalism with a truly caring and supportive environment, ensuring that every student understands the fundamentals while building confidence and discipline. The attention to detail in their instruction and the encouragement they provide make such a positive impact.

No idea where to start... the owner, Erika tailors instruction and coaching to meet the diverse needs, interests, and learning styles of EVERY student, while maintaining a common learning goal. To meet the students where they are, she has so many coaches on the mat supporting the kiddos, it's wonderful. Every coach is amazing. They're patient, kind, and kid friendly. With the membership, classes are pretty much unlimited. Kids loveee being here. You really won't find a better environment to help kiddos develop.

Amazing coaches, classes, and clean facility with large area for training! Friendly and welcoming vibe! Love love love!

Both my kids have been training at Legacy with professor Erika since they opened at this location. They love going to their classes and have learned so much in such a short amount of time!! All of the coaches who work with professor Erika are truly wonderful, kind, fun, and knowledgeable. They offer classes daily during the week and even on Saturday mornings!
