Thank you, Derek! Paying attention to each student and what they need is at the heart of how we teach jiu jitsu here in Indialantic. It means a lot that you feel it. See you on the mats. OSS 🙏🏻

“Pure Life is a great place to train. My 5-year-old daughter takes classes here and really enjoys it. Professor Felipe and the instructors are patient with the kids and maintain a safe, clean, and structured environment. Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for a local martial arts school for your family”

“Professor Felipe is a legit MMA fighter and true martial artist. He is passing on his knowledge and technique to his students in a welcoming family environment.”

“Pure Life is a great gym that is free of egos yet full of men and women that are supportive of each other on and off the mats. Great training partners led by a fantastic professor and good man, Felipe Portela. I felt welcome from day one of my Jiu Jitsu journey. I am grateful to be a part of the Pure Life family!”
