Watch what happens when a small group of committed grapplers comes to Tampa for personal coaching, focused training, recovery, meals, and real access you simply cannot get at a crowded camp.
Train With Me Personally
4-Day Small Group Experience
📅 September 24–27, 2026 | Tampa, Florida
This isn’t a seminar. This isn’t a camp. This is 4 days of direct, personal access — train, recover, eat, and level up side by side with me in Tampa.
The Matt Arroyo BJJ Immersion Experience is a 4-day, 12-person maximum intensive held right here at Gracie Tampa South. No fluff, no filler — just 5 live training sessions, daily technical breakdowns, personalized coaching, and real connection with people who are just as serious about this sport as you are.
I’ve trained with the best in the world and competed at the highest levels of MMA and jiu-jitsu. For 4 days, you get direct access to everything I know — and I’m going to find exactly what’s holding you back and fix it.
We’ll also recover right (cold plunge & sauna), eat good food together (Texas de Brazil), and watch the fights as a crew. Because the culture of jiu-jitsu matters just as much as the technique.
Matt Arroyo is a BJJ black belt and head instructor at Gracie Tampa South — one of the most respected academies in the Southeast. A decorated MMA competitor and lifelong grappler, Matt has spent years refining his ability to break down jiu-jitsu in a way that translates immediately to the mat.
He’s not just a high-level practitioner — he’s a world-class teacher. His online academy has helped thousands of grapplers around the world sharpen their games from home. Now he’s bringing the most serious students inside for a live, immersive experience that can’t be replicated online.
If you’re ready to stop grinding in circles and actually get better fast, Matt will show you exactly how.
“I’ve been training for 6 years and felt completely stuck at purple belt. After just one day with Matt I had more clarity about my game than I’d had in years. The personalized breakdown was worth 10x the price alone.”
“The small group format is everything. You actually get real time with Matt — not just watching him demo at the front of a room. I made more progress in 4 days than in the last 6 months at my home gym.”
“I was skeptical that a 4-day experience could change my jiu-jitsu. I was wrong. The combination of training, coaching, and community built something I haven’t felt since I first fell in love with BJJ. Absolute must.”
There are only 12 spots total. This is not a marketing tactic — it’s the entire point. A bigger group destroys the experience. Once it’s full, registration closes permanently.
No upsells. No hidden costs. Everything is included.
One-time investment · All activities included
Online Academy Members Get Priority Access. If you’re already a member of Matt’s online academy, you get first access to spots. Don’t wait.
This is for beginner to intermediate grapplers. White-Purple belt mainly. Most of our attendees have been in their 40’s-even 67 years old and everything between.
Accommodation is not included — you’ll arrange your own hotel or Airbnb in Tampa. We’ll send you recommended options near the gym when you register. Mentioned dinners, activities, training, and coaching are covered.
Online Academy members get priority access. If spots remain after priority registration, the event is open to qualified practitioners from any gym.
Because the entire value depends on keeping it small. 12 people means everyone gets real coaching time, real rounds watched, and feedback that sticks. A bigger group turns this into just another seminar.
Because spots are extremely limited and each reservation holds a spot specifically for you, cancellation policies apply. There will be no refund, but we would use your payment as a credit to a future retreat in which we will hold at least 3 per year.
Gracie Tampa South is in Tampa, Florida. Once you register you’ll receive a full logistics guide including the gym address, recommended hotels nearby, and transportation tips.
Every week you wait is another week grinding the same patterns. This is the shortcut. 4 days with the right coach in the right environment will do more for your jiu-jitsu than years of solo work. There is 1 spot left. Don’t think about this too long.
