Learning jiu-jitsu in Porto Alegre's centre-north

This guide covers Porto Alegre's centre-north — Santana and Bela Vista through Partenon and Passo D'Areia. Seven records, two with full entries — the city's two official De La Riva schools. The Santana school (Rua Domingos Crescêncio 1005) runs under two Carolino black belts, Bruno and Fellipe; Porto Alegre III in Passo D'Areia (Rua Itapeva 93) runs under third-degree black belt Rafael Zilio, with 7:00 morning classes three days a week and a Saturday noon open mat printed right on the grid. Both publish phones, e-mail and the full weekly timetable on the network's own pages. The rest of this side publishes honestly: Gracie Barra Bela Vista is recorded through its platform registration («credenciada em maio/2023» in its own words), Dream Art on Aparício Borges has a domain that is registered but down, and three federation seats carry plain addresses. For someone just starting, the real question is not "which academy is best" but "which one fits me."

Escola Delariva Porto Alegre III

Who this academy suits

The busier of Porto Alegre's two official De La Riva schools, on Rua Itapeva in Passo D'Areia: a 3rd-degree black belt (Rafael Zilio) at the head with Christiano Lahude alongside, 7:00 morning classes three days a week, a dense kids ladder through the late morning, and a Saturday noon open mat printed right on the grid. Nothing about a trial or prices is published — the first move is a call or an e-mail to the network's own POA address

Why we say it: The two named professors with degrees, the exact street with CEP, both phones, the e-mail and the full weekly grid including the Saturday open mat are all published on the De La Riva network's own school page, fetched 2026-08-24

I'm a complete beginner. Can I just show up?

It differs by academy. Entries show where a fundamentals program and first-visit process are verified. For the rest, check with the academy before visiting. For what a first class actually feels like, see the beginner posts on our blog.
