SELVA BJJ is the brain child of Jason Selva and John Veleso Ouano, and is part of the BJJ Revolution Team, formed by Black Belts Rodrigo Medeiros and Julio “Foca” Fernandez with the goal of developing a nationwide and international elite competition team. SELVA BJJ has its roots in East Los Angeles, where in 2001 Jason Selva learned BJJ under Johnny Ramirez who ran classes to a small group of eager students. After outgrowing his location Johnny moved his school to Santa Fe Springs, California. Seven years later, Jason is spreading the sport and martial art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu to the Los Angeles and Greater Los Angeles commmunities.
I went here for a couple of “Muay Thai” classes and I was very disappointed. I wouldn’t recommend this place for anyone who wants to take Muay Thai or kickboxing. I honestly don’t know if the trainers that I worked with for those two classes are even certified instructors. So my opinion is I would definitely not go here again. I would recommend going to a school that’s the real deal instead of this one. One where you feel like your really going to be taught the art of Muay Thai. Not one that feels like the person who owns the school is treating you like hes a used cars salesmen trying to sell you a gym membership. Sorry but that was my experience here and I’m trying to warn others so that I might be able to spare them some time.
