Coach Josh, Jazzmine, Kevin and Brenda have their own style and structure which is awesome to experience in the week. They each demonstrate the techniques and sets before you begin and assist if they see you need some adjustments. There was never a moment where I felt intimidated regardless of the gibberish (KBXC language) they write on the white boards. You learn to make sense of it all while watching your neighbor or reciting the code for yourself. I am always motivated and engaged and keep coming for more. I've been learning new ways to train and kickboxing has been keeping my mind and body agile. Another huge plus is the flexible schedule. With both morning and evening classes available, it's easy to fit workouts into my lifestyle.

If you're tired of the same gym routine, these classes are a great option--they include strength training, cardio, coordination, and balance. Highly recommend!

"You attract more bees with honey than you do vinegar"…read more This saying couldnt bee more applicable than with Josh and the rest of the "swarm." The motto here is "Bite down and move forward" and from the first time i bit down and moved forward into my first punch in the face and kick in the leg, i just felt welcomed by everyone. When i first flew in to the hive, my only experience with combat sports was watching UFC/One/boxing so i guess you know, im a bit of an expert myself. Jokes aside, even as an absolute beginner and as someone who was intimidated stepping foot here, the coaches were all patient and easygoing. Tom and Josh are good people, they make you feel part of the group and will give you pointers as you try to level up. They're always optimistic, encouraging, and very knowledgeable. The rest of the members, have been friendly as well and everyone just carries a good attitude here. I appreciate the gym and couldnt recommend this place enough, if i had a son, id bring him here too just so i can call him a son of a b. Hope Josh, the team, and the club continue to thrive, cheers to more punches in the face in my future. My goal to bonesmash and looksmaxxx is in good hands.

I joined at 29, and the gym has people of all ages and experience levels. It has never felt intimidating or exclusive. When I started, I was gassed before class even ended and felt awkward throwing anything. My shoulders, wrists, and legs were constantly sore. A few months later now, my conditioning has improved a lot, and I feel confident throwing punches, kicks, elbows, and knees without feeling beat up. Coach/Owner Josh is a great instructor. He is patient, detailed, and explains not just how to do things but why. He clearly has strong fight IQ and experience, and he knows how to push people to improve without risking injury. The gym itself opened recently, but Coach Josh has been teaching and training fighters for many years, and the structure, coaching quality, and culture already feel very established. The culture here is excellent. Questions are always welcome. Training partners were supportive from day one and adjusted to my skill level during drills while offering helpful tips and corrections. There is no ego and no one trying to hurt anyone. On sparring days, intensity is always communicated and respected. At the same time, there are legit fighters here who compete in Muay Thai and MMA, so the level of training is very real. I train Muay Thai, MMA, and No-Gi BJJ here. Tom Landeros, the MMA and BJJ instructor and a professional fighter, is very knowledgeable and does a great job teaching in a clear and approachable way. He is also a pro fighter so he is truly on top of techniques and real scenarios. The gym is well maintained, and I see Josh and his wife Polly cleaning after each day's last class. Polly also trains here herself and definitely knows how to handle herself in sparring. Highly recommend Beehive Fight Gym whether you are a beginner, looking to get in shape, or want to train seriously.

DO NOT GO HERE IF YOUR CHILD IS TRYING TO LEARN SELF-CONTROL AND FOCUS, THEY WILL NOT SUPPORT YOUR…read moreCHILD WELL . My son is 8 years old and is a very energetic, happy kid. He has challenges with focus and self-control at times which is precisely why we wanted to enroll him in the Krav Classes. He started in the Lil Dragons program, and after about 4 months he was promoted to the Juniors program because he was doing so well. HERE is where it gets sad...he was told we would "trial" the Juniors class to see how he would do. After 6 weeks, he having difficulty with focus and self-control in the larger setting, but was making improvements over the last few sessions based on staff report and my observation. This past Tuesday, he wasn't paying attention and accidentally punched another kid in the face with his glove on (not hard but I'm sure it still hurt...he apologized to the child and resumed the class). I recommended that we put him back in the smaller class considering that my son was thriving in Lil Dragons, and he was consistently practicing safe partner work in Lil Dragons so there is no reason he would not thrive there again. Trying out lil Dragons to see how he does again posed no risk to anyone's safety. He just has ongoing challenges with focus and self-control which impacted his performance overall in the larger class. My son in a smaller class size would have more adult support and less distractions which would ultimately help him focus. This issue with the partner work the other day was not aggression, it was a lack of focus that resulted in a punch to someone's face (focus is precisely what a smaller class would support and DID support as of 6 weeks ago). 360 Krav's response was that he wouldn't be appropriate for the Lil Dragons class either (even though he was doing so well there 6 weeks ago that he was promoted!)...effectively expelling him from the program altogether. How 360 Krav has handled this is totally unacceptable. You promoted him to "try" out a new class...it was not a good fit, and now you are not letting him go back to the class that he was successful in. This is a disgraceful way to teach...you are literally punishing a child for being brave enough to try something new and then failing at it.

Our daughter Delilah has been training here, and we've decided without hesitation to keep her enrolled long-term. From day one, Coaches Warren, Alex, Jefferson and all the coaches at BTT have been nothing short of phenomenal. They've shown an incredible amount of patience, dedication, and care with Delilah, and it's clear they genuinely love what they do. What really stood out to us is how they treat each child as an individual, recognizing where they are in their journey and guiding them not just physically, but emotionally and mentally as well. They give each student personalized attention while also nurturing a strong sense of discipline, confidence, and respect. The environment is supportive, structured, and full of positive energy. You can see how much the kids are enjoying themselves while learning real skills. There's a beautiful balance here between focus and fun, and as parents, that means the world to us. We're so thankful to have found a place that not only teaches technique, but also reinforces character development. Brazilian Top Team Long Beach has already made a lasting impression on our family, and we're excited to see Delilah continue to grow here. Thank you again to Coaches Warren, Alex, and Jefferson and all the coaches at BTT for everything you pour into these kids. Highly, highly recommend this gym for anyone looking to introduce their child to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in a place that feels like family!

After…read moreabout a couple weeks of my daughter being signed up and got the itch to jump on the mats which Char and Coach Marcelo were more than accommodating to give me a trial class. I was immediately hooked. This is a two part review as we have two members in the household: Kids Classes: There are two kids groups. 4-8 and 9-13 My daughter is in the 4-8 class. The coaches are attentive and incredibly patient with the kids while still pushing the kids to be the best versions of themselves. Since signing her up. I've noticed a big boost in my daughter's confidence, attentiveness, and there have been benefits in the classroom as she does a better job staying focused and listening to her teachers. Adults: I had prior experience from a different academy when I was younger and was turned away from jiu jitsu till coming to BTT and now I'm obsessed with this beautiful sport. The instructors are all incredibly detail oriented and do a great job of breaking things down starting from the fundamentals classes to the more intermediate/advanced classes. The original goal was to help lose some weight and that has happened, but the greatest accomplishments have been helping find an outlet for the normal stress/ anxiety of a parent along with finding and befriending an incredible community of people that are there for you on and off that mats. If you're even thinking about giving it a shot. Do it. You won't regret it.
