Agababian of Angel Commerical leases 1,400 s/f to Gracie Sports USA
Angel Commercial, LLC
Fairfield, CT Gracie Sports USA, a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy, has recently opened a new 1,400 s/f studio in the Tunxis Hill section of Fairfield at 575-585 Villa Ave. according to Ron Agababian, vice president of Angel Commercial, LLC.
“Gracie Sports USA is an established Brazilian style Jiu-Jitsu Academy located in Norwalk and is under the ownership and direction of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Márcio ‘Macarrão’ Stambowsky, the only 8th degree red and white belt master martial artist in America,” said Agababian who represented both parties in this transaction. “Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu’s popularity has grown immensely during recent years, and Gracie Sports USA has been a leader in teaching this ancient art of self-defense in Connecticut since 2007.”
Gracie Sports USA has already begun offering Jiu-Jitsu classes at their new Fairfield location. “575-585 Villa Ave. is an ideal spot for their new academy given the growing interest in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in the surrounding neighborhoods,” said Agababian.
