    Bjj matts
    Caesar N.

    If your looking to become the best you have to train with the best. The gym is filled with great coaches and athletes who genuinely want you to become the best you can be. They have boxing, wrestling, bjj, judo , mma, etc.Great place to learn self defense, build confidence and overall fitness.Looking forward to representing .

    One of the best Jiu Jitsu programs in San Diego. Excellent no-gi instruction under ADCC invite/CJI competitor Adam Bradley. Good training atmosphere and super nice, clean facility.

    Hi everybody! I'd like to leave this review as a continuation of the conversation that's happening in the Google Maps reviews. Long story short - had complain about one of coaches who was screaming at me for like 10 minutes because I entered the wrong door (please see my mail to gym owners in attachments). More info you can find on Google, but I'll take a photos and attach it here just in case that review disappears (I've mentioned this can happen sometimes). Now gym owner finally replied to me and what he's saying is I don't even know whether it's funny or sad, but I'm definitely very sorry for him, because he's missing to understand the most important thing in life - how respect works. But that's ok, eventually he'll learn it. From my side I'd like to say that if you're not looking for "everyday porrada" gym "for the real warriors" and just want to work on your skills in friendly and safe atmosphere - don't go here. Feel free to reach out to me directly and I'll be more than happy to share my experience with you, because I've trained in a lot of gyms worldwide, I know what I'm looking for and it's definitely not what this place can offer. I'm wishing best of luck to this place and more "warriors, not whiners" customers. I'm personally very happy that I left this place. My health is way more important than whatever they can offer(nothing special, btw). Adios! Update from 02/13/2023: After another inadequate response from the gym's owner I reported it to Yelp team and it was removed (please see the email attach together with other communication). Thank you Yelp team for you quick response!!

    What are the prices?

    i have a two yr contract and that's $100 a month. i can't remember what the 1 yr contract and month to month rates are. want to visit as my guest?

    What are the boxing membership price?

    it varies depending on length of membership but they offer a free month.

    How do I cancel my membership? No where on the website is there any information about this.

    The staff make all the difference. It's awesome that it's never too crowded and as a larger person…read morejust starting on a new health journey; I don't feel super judged, and def feel welcome by all the trainers. Started doing personal training with Natalie S. After one session I feel like a whole new person. She listened to my concerns and my goals and tailored a regimen to my specific needs. Love the Chill Zone - just wish it was included in the membership instead of $20 a session (you do get one free session per month which is nice). The infrared sauna is a great warm down! Grateful for this community and excited to try out more classes. Just wish there were more offerings, the classes I like are only offered once a week.

    Visited on a $30 guest pass while my friend used ClassPass. We warmed up on the treadmill and stair…read morestepper, lifted in the main room, used the turf for sled work, and finished in the women-only sauna located inside the locker room. The sled was a lot of fun as my current gym does not have one. Towels are available at the front desk, and the locker rooms are clean, spacious, and well-appointed with showers, a large vanity area, and motivational signage throughout. The stretching room was a standout, offering assisted stretch machines along with open floor space for mobility work. The Chill Zone is an additional premium amenity--members receive one complimentary session per month, with additional sessions available for $20. Overall, it's a polished, well-equipped gym with thoughtful amenities, ideal for those who plan to fully utilize everything the club offers.
