He quickly made his way to the 6-9 year old class and with Professor's guidance he jumped on into competing allowing him to earn a silver metal. For context my kid is really shy and quiet. Being at APEX has allowed him to feel more comfortable opening up and has gained a lot of confidence in the short time that he has been there. My husband and I enjoy how welcoming the environment is for us as parents and the kids are also welcoming and help each other out in order to get better. Professor Ramos is very gentle, patient, and observing in every kids individual level. He teaches them fundamentals, and technique as well as how to stay focus. For adults: i personally really enjoy going for myself. I started off with some private lessons with professor Ramos to get some basics. He was very patient with me and allowed me to feel comfortable starting my journey at 35 years old. I also joined in on the women's class which is filled with such incredible women who teach me something new at every class. I started attending the 630am class and it's been so much fun. Everyday is a challenge and a learning lesson. I leave Apex with a solid workout and a feeling of accomplishment and determination to do better next time. But one thing that is consistent are the amazing people and their support. The gym is very clean, mats are always being cleaned. Overall a wonderful place, I really would recommend to everyone to check it out. Can't wait for what the future holds for our kid, one thing is for sure, he'll keep on learning a life skill from one the best, professor Ramos.

This is THE place to train in Solano County if your focus is no gi Jiu Jitsu/submission grappling,…read moreyou're a wrestler who wants to supplement your training off-season, you're hoping to build self-defense skills, or you are simply looking for a really fun way to improve your cardio, strength, and mobility. There are so many reasons I have chosen to train at this gym. To summarize: 1. Coach Nick is well-versed in the constraints-led approach to training, a format that is quickly gaining support in the grappling community due to its capacity for promoting problem solving and creative thinking, rather than simply replicating "moves" that may or may not work in a particular situation (and often don't). I feel strongly that had I started my training years ago with this approach, I would have a much broader skill set. 2. The atmosphere at this gym is fun, supportive, and encourages a humble approach to learning, including by way of making "mistakes." As one of my daughter's school teachers loves to say, "Mistakes make your brain grow." If you don't make mistakes, are you actually learning anything? This is not a gym where you will be scoffed at for doing something "wrong." Trying new solutions and thinking outside of the box are encouraged. 3. At this gym you're not going to encounter silly rules disguised as tradition, like having to line up by belt rank, or lower belts not being "allowed" to ask upper belts to roll with them. Ego has no place here. 4. Classes are scheduled for an hour and you are actually going to get an hour of training. Classes start and end on time and you won't be directed to engage in a 10-15 minute warmup that is irrelevant to the skills of grappling and honestly a waste of time. Yes, we warm up, but it is by getting right to work. 5. This is a no gi only gym. You will not encounter anyone telling you that you have to train in the gi in order to learn Jiu Jitsu or promote in rank. Before this gym opened I was looking all over Solano and neighboring counties for a no gi gym. There weren't any...until Apex Grappling. In the time since this gym opened my skills have increased exponentially. I can't say enough good things about Coach Nick and Apex Grappling.

(The other person's membership charge was even more than my own.) Once I noticed, I contacted Fabio and let him know. He acted like he would do something about it but did not. So I waited then asked him again. If I remember correctly, he still did not refund my money. After asking repeatedly, I eventually got some of the money back...but it was NOT the full amount and it was only for ONE month. He never paid me back for the rest. I lost over $100. I wanted to be nice and give Fabio time, but in doing so, the window passed for me to file a complaint with my bank. I have never heard from Fabio since. Additionally, this gym needs to pay more attention to who is in their gym during sparring. This gym has an unsafe environment. I was a beginner white belt and I was once paired with a Napoleon complex hothead who was also named Austin (coincidence), and he was a higher belt than me. During sparring he quickly slammed me on my head. This is extremely dangerous and shows a complete lack of sense. He had no respect and showed no remorse. It was 100% intentional. One black belt here would not wash his gi and smelled like urine and feces (this is a known tactic for actual competitions, but I was amazed that someone would do this for simple practice against white belts). This is not a good gym. There is a lack of supervision and safety, and I had money taken that has still never been returned.
