For Star subscribers: In just five years, The Eyrie Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu martial arts academy has completed it's third expansion as it continues to build community.
Carmen Duarte Phillip Aguilar founded The Eyrie Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu martial arts academy just five years ago, but he’s already completed the Tucson school’s third building expansion.

It is a form of kickboxing and is being taught by Miguel Topete, a clinical psychologist who is a 2017 University of Arizona graduate.
“Jiu-jitsu as a whole has exploded over the last 20 years, and that is because of the popularity of the UFC,” the Ultimate Fighting Championship, or mixed-martial arts, explained Aguilar. He also attributes his growth to the “family” atmosphere at the gym. “It is different here. I am coach Phillip. No one has to bow to me or call me sensei ,” he said.
Word of mouth continues bringing families to the academy — a place where their children exercise, learn self-defense, compete and have fun, say parents. Others attracted to the school for training and to let out stress include teachers, firefighters, office workers, mechanics, military, law enforcement and those in the medical fields.
