Testimonials
"My son has attended Gracie Jiu Jitsu for the last 18 months. His self confidence has increased dramatically, and he is in a lot better shape than when he started. The instructors are excellent and have really given him a lot of one on one instruction. Charles Gracie has always been very nice to our whole family. If you know the Gracie legacy it has been an honor for my son to train there."Kevin P.
"I would give this establishment 20 stars if I could. My daughter started Jiu-Jitsu about 4 weeks ago twice a week and she LOVES IT, I mean LOVES IT! Cristiano is an AMAZing instructor and he is super wonderful with the kids. He keeps the attention of the class and does not take any crap, which I love."MJ B.
"There is no better training anywhere. You might think that all Brazilian Jiu Jitsu schools are created equally. I strongly recommend that you do your homework and consider the linage and validity of any school you are considering. I learned this the hard way, I wasted a year of my time and money on at Yoga Soul in Manteca that was a complete hoax. "Rob H.
"Amanda has been an incredible influence on Abodu - she built out our foundational infrastructure in People Ops, ran recruitment on junior and senior roles and was a lights out executor and the various one-offs that can pop up when you run a growing company. Amanda is a valuable resource to each department and has spent the time building the trust and respect of leaders across the business. She is still my first call when I need a quick take on anything HR/People Ops related. I cannot more highly recommend working with Amanda!"John Geary
"Amanda has been a pleasure to work with. Even though we signed up to work on a very specific project, she already feels like an extension of the team -- she has completely owned that project, and has stepped in to help with other people-related items that have come up along the way. I highly recommend working with her!"Neil Machhar
"Working with Amanda & FractionalHR has been a lifesaver for our small, growing business (and me personally). She is knowledgeable, hardworking, communicative, and motivated to deliver as needed to support her clients. She has helped us create an HR function de novo, and she continues to be incredibly flexible with us as we increase our asks of her time and effort."Sam Duprey
