Diego Ramalho Brazilian Jiu Jitsu NC

Diego Ramalho Brazilian Jiu Jitsu NC is led by Professor Diego Ramalho, a Brazilian black belt with deep roots in the sport and a strong presence in the competitive scene. Bringing years of experience from both Brazil and the United States, Professor Ramalho has built the academy in Spring Lake as a place where students can benefit from his technical expertise and firsthand knowledge gained from national and international tournaments. Classes at the academy are structured to develop solid fundamentals while also challenging advanced practitioners. Students can expect instruction that draws from Professor Ramalho’s own competition-tested game, with attention to details that matter at every level. The academy welcomes adults and youth, and the teaching style reflects a belief in steady progression—whether a student’s focus is self-defense, sport Jiu-Jitsu, or preparing for tournaments. Located on North Bragg Boulevard, the facility is wheelchair accessible and designed to accommodate a range of training needs. The schedule is built to support both dedicated athletes and those new to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, with group classes, open mat times, and opportunities for private instruction. Professor Ramalho’s approach is hands-on, shaped by his own journey through the ranks and a commitment to sharing the art in a straightforward, practical way.
