Last year was such an incredible experience with both Nicholas Salles an Daniel Maira AKA "The Bolo Bros" that we decided to do it again! They are both high level black belt competitors under highly respected Mikey Musumeci and own Movement Art Academy with a highly accomplished competition team. There have a unique approach to Jiu Jitsu and there ability to explain and teach it is second to none. This trip will certainly be one that you will never forget ! You will meet lots of likeminded individuals in which you will not only share the mats with, but also explore the beautiful island of Puerto Rico!

Honestly probably my favorite trip I’ve ever been on! Super thankful to everyone who organized and set up this awesome retreat! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience from start to finish!

By Anthony R for Rincón Jiu Jitsu Retreat / Bolo Bros (Numero Tres) on Feb 01, 2024

Amazing experience put together by professor Steve. The jiu-jitsu instructional seminar by nick and Danny was next level and improved my game tremendously. Whether we were training or rock climbing we had a great time. The perfect blend of jiu-jitsu and adventure and a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

By Jonathan S for Rincon Jiu Jitsu Retreat feat. "The Bolo Bros" The Sequel on Jan 27, 2023

Great experience, great people, good vibes. Will definitely try to make it down there as often as I can. Highly recommend

By Dan C for Rincon Jiu Jitsu Retreat feat. Nicholas Salles and Daniel Maira on May 11, 2022

Everything about this trip was amazing! The accommodations exceeded my expectations, as did our island excursions. Everyone I met was genuinely kind and very personable. I'm looking forward to seeing them again at the next retreat. Most importantly, the jiu jitsu portion of the retreat was done in a manner that was challenging, yet safe. We trained harder than most gyms train, but everyone was also mindful of individual safety. As a disabled veteran, I can honestly say they earned my trust in this regard, and can be trusted with other at risk populations.
