"Brave Kids Jiu-Jitsu is second to none!" Every detail was well thought out—from the brackets to the venue flow." ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

 Brave Kids was such a great experience for us. The tournament felt personal and welcoming but still big enough for the kids to get plenty of good matches and real podium moments. My son did both Gi and No-Gi and had an absolute blast. From the second we walked in everything felt organized and smooth, the staff knew exactly what they were doing. I also really liked the prayer before the matches started, it gave the whole event a sense of meaning beyond just winning medals. We will definitely be coming back to Brave events. 

 Brave Kids was one of the best tournaments we’ve ever been to. So many youth Jiu-Jitsu events feel unorganized, but this one ran smoothly from start to finish. We got clear text updates, weigh-ins were quick, and the brackets actually made sense. What stood out most was the atmosphere—it felt positive, family-focused, and full of energy. Our daughter had fair matches, plenty of mat time, and left feeling proud of herself. Big thanks to Caio and the whole team for creating something that really puts the kids first while keeping everything professional. We can’t wait for the next one. 

 The Brave Kids tournament went above and beyond what we expected. You can tell the team puts a lot of heart into the event because it shows in every detail. The brackets were fair, matches started on time, and the volunteers were kind and really knew what they were doing. My son loved the energy of the whole day and was so excited about the podium photos, which turned out great. I really appreciated the spiritual side and the way the focus was more on community than just competition. We will definitely be back and will bring more teammates with us. This is exactly how kids Jiu Jitsu should feel. 

 Shoutout to the Brave Kids team for hosting one of the smoothest and most kid-focused events we have ever been part of. From check-in to the podium photos, everything was handled with care and attention to detail. I loved how much respect and sportsmanship were encouraged throughout the day. My son lost a tough match but was lifted up by the encouragement of the staff and even other parents. The opening prayer over the athletes gave the tournament a special feel that really stood out. We left feeling supported and uplifted, and that is exactly how youth sports should feel. 

 Brave Kids is one of those rare events that leaves an even better impression the more you think about it. Everything ran smoothly with matches starting on time, clear brackets, and constant helpful communication. What stood out most was the thoughtfulness behind every detail. The opening prayer was beautiful and set the tone for a respectful and uplifting day. The medals were impressive and the Brave-themed trophies truly felt special. My son has been proudly showing his off at school. This event was not just for the competitors, it was for the whole family, and Brave absolutely delivered. 

 Brave Kids gets it right. We have done local competitions, big-name events, and everything in between, but nothing has felt as warm, professional, and well-run as this tournament. From the start it was clear that this was not just about medals. It was about giving kids an experience they would remember and making parents feel part of it too. The VIP area was such a thoughtful touch because we finally had a place to film without ten heads in front of us. My son was in one of the larger brackets and it still ran beautifully. The digital screens kept everything updated, the refs were kind and engaged, and the staff stayed positive and helpful all day long. I loved the details like custom cards for the kids, motivational signs, clean mats, and an organized podium photo setup. The prayer and anthem at the beginning gave me goosebumps and set the tone for something meaningful. In a sport where ego can sometimes creep in, Brave Kids was a reminder of what it is really about: courage, faith, and family. Thank you for creating a space where our kids can grow not just as athletes but as people. 

 We have been to a lot of kids’ tournaments, but Brave Kids really stood out for both professionalism and purpose. My son Derek had a tough bracket, but overall the experience was top tier. The staff was approachable, and Caio was present and available all day to help with any concerns. Even when we had a match that felt unfair, the transparency and follow-up gave us peace of mind. The medals were beautiful, the venue was clean, and the pacing of the event made everything flow smoothly. We will definitely be looking out for the next one and showing up ready. 

 Brave Kids blew us away. This was my son’s first competition and I could not have asked for a better introduction to the tournament world. The atmosphere was full of energy but never overwhelming, and everyone from the staff to the other parents was friendly and encouraging. Everything was organized from start to finish, from weigh-ins to the brackets, and the text updates kept us in the loop all day. My son felt like a superstar with his Brave lanyard and kept saying how cool the medals were compared to other tournaments he has seen. What stood out most to me was the way the event opened with a prayer. It gave the whole day a meaningful foundation and made it feel like more than just another competition.

We drove in from Temecula for this event and it was worth every mile. I have coached youth sports for more than a decade and Brave Kids Jiu Jitsu is one of the most impressive events I have seen in terms of logistics, energy, and professionalism. The venue was just right, not too big and not too cramped, and the flow of the tournament was seamless. Every bracket my team competed in ran early or on time, and for those of us used to waiting hours at other competitions, that alone felt like a huge win. What stood out most was how Brave balances structure with heart. It is clear that Caio and his team care deeply about the athletes. From the opening prayer to the way they guided first-time competitors through warm-ups and weigh-ins, we felt taken care of instead of just processed. The medals were beautiful, the Brave gear looked great (we are ready for more merch), and the sense of community was real. Coaches from different teams encouraged each other’s kids, and staff made every child feel celebrated whether they won or lost. This is the kind of event that keeps families engaged in Jiu Jitsu for the long haul. Brave Kids is building something truly special.

 We came in from out of town for Brave Kids and it was completely worth the trip. From the moment we walked in the energy was high but everything stayed organized. Check-in was smooth, matches started on time, and the staff was both friendly and professional. My son was over the moon about winning gold and said the trophy was the coolest one he has ever received. As a parent, I really appreciated the clear communication before and during the event. Starting the day with prayer sealed the deal for us. We are officially Brave fans. 

 Brave Kids was our very first tournament and I honestly cannot imagine a better introduction to the competition scene. I was nervous at first, worried about chaos, unfair matches, and not knowing where to go, but those fears disappeared the moment we walked in. The staff welcomed us with smiles, check-in was quick, and my daughter was given a lanyard with her ID card that she treasured like a medal. Everything ran smoothly, our matches were even ahead of schedule, and the day never dragged. The volunteers were kind and approachable, and when we had questions Caio himself stepped in to help. The venue was clean, well organized, and had a beautiful podium area for photos. What really set it apart, though, was the atmosphere. This was more than a sports event, it felt like a day of family, purpose, and joy. My daughter did not win her bracket, but she left with the biggest smile and told me it was one of the best days of her life. That meant more to me than gold. Brave Kids is not just a tournament, it is a memory maker.

 This tournament was everything we hoped for and more. The size was perfect, not too crowded but with plenty of strong competition. My daughter loved the trophies and the way the whole event felt like it was made just for the kids. Caio and the team did a fantastic job keeping things on schedule and communicating clearly all day. Registration and weigh-ins were quick and simple, and the staff was attentive and helpful from start to finish. You can tell this event was built with love and purpose. 

 As a coach and father of two young competitors, I have been to more tournaments than I can count, but Brave Kids Jiu Jitsu stood out in a big way. The event truly felt like it was built for the kids first, which is unfortunately rare these days. Everything from registration and check-in to match management was smooth and hassle-free. Communication through text and email was clear, and we never once felt lost or unsure about where to be. My daughter had a tough bracket and finished with silver, but she left feeling proud. That speaks to the environment Brave creates. The staff genuinely encouraged the kids, and the atmosphere was exciting while still feeling safe. Starting the day by honoring the flag and lifting a prayer over the kids was a meaningful touch that set the tone. I also want to give credit to Caio. His presence was felt throughout the day, and I personally watched him help parents, update brackets, and even troubleshoot tech issues. He cares, and that is the foundation of something truly great. We will be back with our entire team next time.

We have been to several tournaments across the West Coast, but Brave Kids Jiu Jitsu left the strongest impression by far. From the moment we walked into the venue everything felt intentional, welcoming, and organized. My son was thrilled to receive his Brave lanyard with his info card. It was such a simple detail, but it made him feel important and seen. As a mom, I noticed the little things. The staff at the door was friendly, the volunteers helped kids navigate the brackets, and the DJ kept the energy fun without it ever feeling overwhelming. What truly stood out was how the tournament opened with the national anthem and a prayer. That moment was powerful and reminded us all that this is bigger than sport. It is about values, unity, and community. The brackets ran ahead of schedule, which felt like a miracle, and the VIP seating gave us a clear view of our son’s matches so we could record and cheer without obstruction. The medals were beautifully designed, the podium photos looked professional, and the atmosphere all day was joyful. Thank you, Brave Kids. You have earned our family’s loyalty.

 We were so impressed with the structure and flow of Brave Kids. My daughter has been competing for almost a year and said this was her favorite tournament so far. She loved the venue layout, the energy, and how everything was designed to make the kids feel proud and celebrated. The medals were incredible and the podium photo setup gave us amazing keepsakes. Every tournament has its bumps, but Brave handled everything with professionalism and care. A huge thank you to the staff and to Caio, who was hands-on and supportive all day long. 

 Huge shoutout to Brave Kids for putting together such an efficient and welcoming event. The brackets were easy to follow, matches actually ran early, and the entire day flowed so well. My son competed in both Gi and No Gi and had a great time in each. I really appreciated how easy it was to communicate with the staff before and during the tournament, every question we had was answered quickly. Brave Kids sets the bar for what youth Jiu Jitsu tournaments should be. 

 Brave Kids was an unforgettable experience for our family. Everything was organized beautifully, from check-in to the podium ceremony. I really appreciated the dedicated VIP area for parents, which made it easy to capture great pictures and videos of my son’s matches. The environment was competitive yet positive, and the staff treated the kids with genuine kindness and encouragement. Starting the day with the national anthem and a prayer was a meaningful touch that set the tone for what felt like a true celebration of the kids, not just another tournament. We will be at every Brave event from here on out.

 Thank you Brave Kids for delivering such a memorable tournament. From start to finish everything was on point. My daughter was so excited to get her lanyard and walk around with her name card, she said it made her feel like a real pro. Matches were on or ahead of schedule which kept the day moving quickly, and there was plenty of space to warm up and watch. The prayer and national anthem gave the whole event a sense of purpose. It is rare to find a tournament that gets both the logistics and the heart right, but Brave did it perfectly. 

 As both a coach and a parent, I have been to a lot of tournaments, and Brave Kids truly stands out. The structure, the respect for time, and the prayer over the kids before the event began all made a lasting impression. I was blown away by how smoothly everything ran. There was no chaos, no confusion, just kids doing what they love in a supportive and fun environment. You can tell that Caio and the team put both heart and hustle into this event. It felt special, and we will definitely be back with even more of our team. 

 We are officially Brave Kids superfans. My son loved everything, from his custom card to the Brave lion logo and the trophies he thought were the coolest ever. The staff was incredibly friendly and professional all day, and Caio made himself available for every question, which is rare at events this size. The whole tournament felt like a close community that truly puts kids first. The only problem is that now my son expects every tournament to be this good. 

 The Brave team runs a tight ship. From check-in to the podium photos everything was smooth and efficient. I really appreciated the constant text updates that kept us informed all day. The venue layout made it easy to follow the matches and stay close to the action, and the VIP area for parents was a great touch. What moved us most was the opening prayer over the athletes. It set the tone for the entire day. This event has heart, and it truly shows. 

 What a well-run event. This was my daughter’s very first tournament and she left feeling proud, supported, and already asking when the next one will be. The size was perfect, not overwhelming but big enough that every match felt meaningful. I loved the family-friendly atmosphere, and the medals were such high quality. My daughter even said they were “cool,” which is high praise coming from a nine-year-old. A huge thank you to the Brave Kids team for making her first competition such a memorable experience. 

 The entire event felt like a celebration of both the sport and the kids. I was really impressed with the professionalism and the clear communication leading up to the tournament. The opening prayer and national anthem gave me goosebumps and set such a respectful and uplifting tone. Matches actually ran ahead of schedule, which felt like a miracle, and my son had the best time. Even the small details, like the podium photos and the medal designs, felt premium. Caio and team, you nailed it. You have earned a loyal fanbase with this one. 

 Incredible organization, thoughtful details, and a family-first atmosphere. I loved how the mats were spaced so we could watch comfortably, and the venue layout made everything easy to follow. Caio was present throughout the day, answering questions and making sure everything ran smoothly. I also noticed the focus on sportsmanship. From the staff to the competitors, there was genuine respect and kindness everywhere. This was our first Brave tournament, but it will definitely not be our last. 

 We have been to quite a few kids’ tournaments, and Brave Kids truly stands out. What impressed us most was how special the kids were made to feel. My son was so proud of his unique first-place trophy and loved the Brave card with his info on it. The VIP section made it easy to capture great photos of his matches, and the energy in the room was exciting without ever feeling chaotic. Everything ran on time, or even early, which is almost unheard of. Huge thanks to Caio and the team. We will definitely be back. 

 This was one of the best tournament experiences we have had. From the moment we walked in everything felt smooth and well planned. My daughter loved the ID lanyard so much that she is still wearing it around the house. The brackets ran ahead of schedule and the constant communication through text and email made sure we never felt lost. The highlight for me was the opening with the national anthem and prayer. It gave me chills and set the perfect tone for the day. Brave Kids Jiu Jitsu is more than just a tournament, it is an experience we will always remember. 

So well organized — we felt taken care of the entire day! This was Jaecel’s favorite event to date! Matches were competitive and fair, and the environment was super friendly for kids. The schedule updates and flow made it easy to plan the day without stress. Huge thanks to the Brave Kids crew for creating a space where our athletes can shine. 

We’ve done many events — this one stood out! I’ve been to a lot of tournaments with my kids, and Brave Kids is in a class of its own. Everything from the mat flow to the staff support was on point. Dakota and Atlas had a great time, and as a coach, I appreciated the fairness and communication. We’ll definitely be back! 

Top marks for professionalism and passion! Caio and the Brave staff are seriously doing something special here. Everything was organized, fair, and deeply respectful of both kids and coaches. I love how they opened the event with prayer and made sure every child felt valued. 10/10 experience. 

Everything ran like clockwork! From weigh-ins to awards, everything was incredibly well run. Logan had fun, learned a lot, and felt like a true competitor. The environment was positive and safe, and I really appreciated how easy it was for parents to track progress and support their athletes. 

Flawless experience from start to finish! We’ve been to a few tournaments, but this one felt special. The staff was professional, the brackets stayed on time, and everything was clearly communicated. My kids loved the medals and felt truly recognized for their effort. Thank you Brave Kids — we’ll be back! 

So glad we signed up — absolutely worth it! Logan came home smiling ear to ear. The Brave Kids team made sure things ran efficiently, the mat setup was easy to navigate, and the sportsmanship across teams was awesome to see. We’ve been to a few events, but this one was something special. 

The heart behind this tournament shows! I was blown away by how smooth, structured, and thoughtful this event was. You can tell the organizers genuinely care about the kids and the experience families walk away with. From check-in to podium, it was flawless. We’re already looking forward to the next one. 

An unforgettable day for our daughter! Skyler had the best time competing. The tournament ran on time, the brackets were fair, and the staff made it easy for parents to follow along. It’s refreshing to be at an event that truly puts kids first while maintaining a high level of professionalism. Thank you Brave Kids! 

Friendly, professional, and family-centered! I’ve been to a lot of events, and Brave Kids really stood out. Everything was communicated clearly, and the organizers were helpful and supportive. My kids felt encouraged, and the overall vibe was respectful and uplifting. Big win for the jiu-jitsu community!

Well-run and super inspiring for the kids! Both of my boys had a blast at Brave Kids! The event was extremely well-organized, the energy was positive, and it really made our little athletes feel like superstars. Loved the smooth flow and thoughtful touches like personalized lanyards and great medals. We’re proud to be part of this! 

A smooth day of matches with amazing energy! Avery felt like a champion from the moment we checked in. The structure of the event and how clearly everything was communicated made the day enjoyable and stress-free. Big thanks to the Brave team for delivering such a professional experience. 

Professional, friendly, and so much fun! Ethan loved every moment of his matches. Everything was well-organized, the atmosphere was uplifting, and the staff made sure parents were informed and involved. These tournaments are what youth jiu-jitsu should be about—growth, joy, and family. 

Our whole team had a fantastic time! Brave Kids continues to raise the bar. From the quality of the medals to the smooth check-in and real-time bracket updates, it was a great day of jiu-jitsu and community. Watching Kayden and Primitivo compete in such a positive environment meant the world to us. 

 "A top-notch experience!"  This was Daniel’s favorite tournament yet! The communication was excellent, and everything ran smoothly. We appreciated how the event made the kids feel important and the attention given to safety and fairness. Thank you Brave Kids and Caio! 

Brave Kids Jiu-Jitsu is second to none! Nathan had a blast! Every detail was well thought out—from the brackets to the venue flow. The event started on time and ran without a hitch. You can tell this tournament is run with the kids' best interests in mind. Alpine Jiu Jitsu is proud to be part of it! 

"Great tournament overall! Definitely will be returning to do more in the future. Big thank you to Malta for going above and beyond. Truly appreciated 

"My son has competed in Brave tournaments since they started coming to Las Vegas. Each and every time I find the events spot on. They are timely, orderly, managed well and fosters a culture of spirited and respectful competition. Most importantly, the kids appear to love the medals and have fun. Lastly, the owner/promoter is a black belt and savvy business man which adds credence and weight to the BJJ community."

 First time doing Brave Kids and Caio has been wonderful. He helped me walk through the process for finding the right division for my son. Everytime I called him he answered his phone and was very helpful. If you’re looking for an organized tournament check out brave kids. This is by far the most organized tournament I’ve felt with and ciao had been a great help to all the questions and concerns I have. Thank you very much brave jiu-jitsu for making this process stress -free."

 This was such a great organized event I love how it was all put together. I have been to a couple of tournaments and this one was good for kids especially if they haven’t done many it’s a great way to test the waters. I will say it was different how they had the brackets up but they went just like they were said. I like how they group kids in time brackets and when it was close to their time they had them line up and called them one at a time to group them so they could go by the mats where they with fighting. But I would maybe next time put the podiums on the other side by next because when they had kids' lineup it was kind of a busy area and didn’t want to mess up people's pictures either and hard to get around because it was one way into the fight area in one way out. I love the trophies. I had the chance to experience the VIP area and I really love the chairs by the mats so you can sit and see close-ups and great pictures chances too. My family enjoyed the music and had a great experience too. 

 I'm a first-time parent and I was feeling super overwhelmed by the competition coming up. I reached out to Caio Malta and he immediately followed up with a phone call and helped me understand every question I had. We are so pumped for this competition and we're feeling so ready to go and cheer on my son! This tournament comes highly recommended by our coaches and other competitors and I already know why. Thank you for helping a parent learn the ways of jiu-jitsu tournament life! 

 Caio ran an awesome event. As a coach with multiple competing kids having a tournament start on time and run smoothly makes all the difference in the world. I loved the lanyard with the kids' info and QR code, made weigh-ins and bullpen lineups easy.  Plus the lanyards make cool souvenirs for the kids, especially first-time competing kids I would definitely recommend the Brave jiujitsu tournament and will definitely be bringing a small army to compete at the next event. 

This tournament was well run and the people working were all helpful and kind. Caio was very helpful when addressing bracket concerns. We will definitely be competing at brave again in future tournaments. Keep up the good work!

 This is a great tournament for kids. Caio provided immediate responses to all questions I had and ensured he kept all participants (parents) informed up to the date of the tournament through email. Great opportunity for kids to get additional tournament experience! 

"From registration to submitting sensitive documents via the third service link EVERYTHING was a breeze. The end-user experience was simplistic and straightforward to get my kids set up for a competition. Having registered with other competition hosts, Brave Jiu-Jitsu Tournaments hands down was the easiest. The automated triple check for age/weight/class emails was an awesome reminder as were the notifications for comp rules and weigh-in requirements. I had a billing problem that was handled timely and without hesitation by Brave. Can't wait for Daniel Camarillo and all the kiddos to take home the TEAM TROPHY!"

My son competed in last weekends tournament which was his second time competing in Brave BJJ Las Vegas. The heat didn't seem to stop anyone from getting on those mats and earning some medals. The founder communicates w/parents from beginning to end, keeping you informed and up to date on any info or changes and that's nice to have. My son has done lots of different tournaments, & Brave seems to be the most communicative, organized and really about the passion of the kids in the sport. Hope to see Brave BJJ as a permanent staple in Vegas.

"These tournaments that Brave jiu-jitsu puts together are well organized. These tournaments bring value to the sport and attract the attention of future competitors and that’s exactly what this sport needs.it is highly appreciated and with the upmost gratitude we thank you for these events."

"Brave Jiu-Jitsu Tournaments are so well put together and tip-top professional, my son daydreamed of the day he would get to compete and win the first-place trophy. If you are considering signing up for a competition, you will not be disappointed. From the registration process online to the weigh-in, the whole event is hi-tech and the event staff is professional. Everyone is approachable and caring for every competitor. On competition day, the flag is saluted, the Star-Spangled Banner is sung, the whole event starts to buzz, and the adrenaline begins to overflow. Respect and Sportsmanship abound as much as cheering and encouragement. I’m comparing this competition to a Silver Gloves event and or the Junior Olympics Boxing Tournaments for similar age groups. I wish those organizations would consult with Brave Jiu-Jitsu Tournaments and find ways to improve their events. Thank you to everyone involved and for making the Vision a reality for our kids. You all give the professors and coaches a chance to help kids refine their skills in a high-level setting and for the competitors a chance to compete and improve. We love your Tournaments." 

We've been to one Brave tournament as spectators. but our gym can't stop recommending them for our kids.  especially for my 8 year old.  This November will be his first tournament.  Caio Malta and the Brave Jiu-Jitsu Tournaments team are awesome and dedicated to the kids not only competing fairly, but also having a great time.  They are friendly and happy to help.  And most likely, you'll hear from Caio himself!  Awesome work! 

"Love the Brave Jiu-Jitsu tournament’s great atmosphere friendly staff and owned by a Blackbelt BJJ Professor who knows the BJJ community and the art of BJJ! Not a big corporation that's only focused on making money."

"Brave is always on top of everything and always making sure every detail is covered. They get back to you in a decent time. I am really am enjoying this experience with them and thank you!"

"Brave Jiu Jitsu tournament in Lancaster was a great event. It was well put together and organized. Excited to attend more Brave tournaments!"

"It was my son's first tournament and it was a great experience. Even though he did not win, when he was finished he said he was ready to do it again. Could not ask for more. Thank you for the opportunity, the coordination that kept it going, the kindness of everyone involved and the photos for us to enjoy!"

 "I loved the attention the kids got. The staff was very friendly and paid much attention to all the little details. There were over 180 kids registered, the tournament started on time, and I heard that by 3:30 PM it was over. Impressive! The positive and encouraging energy was so amazing! Thanks Brave!"

We loved the experience and the way everything was organized. Everything amazing! We'll be back!"

"Brave BJJ doesn't only care for their participants, they also care for their parents! They bless you in so many ways. Love you Brave BJJ family!"

"Brave BJJ has been an excellent experience for my daughter. She has been in at three of your tournaments and they all have been excellent experiences."
