Leonardo Xavier, the highest-ranking Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt in all of the greater Houston Area, has been teaching BJJ for 17 years. In his experience and that of his own instructor, Royler Gracie, private lessons have proven to be the most effective method of instruction both in terms of the amount of material learned and the speed with which it is mastered. People learn more, faster when taking privates because the instruction is customized and taught in a one-on-one format designed to develop your technique, cardiovascular conditioning, strength and self esteem at a pace that is best suited for your success.

Private lessons are 100% customizable to suit your needs and reach your goals in as quick and effective way as possible. This includes any special accommodation you may require due to a physical disability, irregular work schedule, etc. Privates can take place at our school, your home, place of business, etc. Just contact Leonardo and we will arrange a class that best suits your needs. Semi-private format also available please ask for details!
If your child really wants to try out martial arts and you are afraid that they may punch or kick someone at school or home then this is the perfect place for you! Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a self-defense system that enables the people who practice it to defend themselves by using leverage to submit opponents. This is done without throwing punches or kicks. Using our proven techniques your child will be able to defend themselves from bullies even though we do not teach them how to strike. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a fantastic way to promote an active and healthy lifestyle for kids of any ages. Parents of our students often find that their children gain self-esteem through athletic achievement and learn how to carry themselves better in situations that require them to deal with pressure. If your son or daughter is acting overly aggressive in school, lacks focus and or discipline then we at LX Jiu-Jitsu recommend you start them out with a private lesson to introduce them to the sport and class structure. If you do not want to commit to a contract until you’re sure they will follow through, find that our scheduled group classes conflict with your other engagements or if you just want your child to progress faster please contact Leonardo to schedule your child’s private lesson. Private, semi-private and small group formats are all available.
