Explore Jiu Jitsu Techniques“Amazing gym with great people. I started as a complete beginner with no background in grappling. The head coach genuinely cares about everyone in his gym and wants the best for each person. His high-level teaching across all skill levels allowed me to earn multiple gold medals. I highly recommend this gym to anyone looking to stay fit or learn Jiu-Jitsu at a high level.”
“I have been training at BJJ Lifestyle Academy in South County since 2019. I served 8 years in the USMC got out in August, 2018, my transition back to the civilian sector was very difficult, I was having issues with PTSD and missed being part of the brotherhood in arms. It wasn’t until November 2019, that I knew I need to fill that void in my life, so I started researching and calling around for places to train. I called a bunch of places but Mike was the only one who called me back, he welcomed me with a free trial and was very friendly. After speaking with him in person I immediately knew this wasn’t something he did part time or outsourced to others, BJJ was his life passion and he spoke about it as if he was speaking about a dear friend. I soon realized what Coach Mike was offering wasn’t simply BJJ lessons, he was offering a chance to be part of a family which was what I sorely missed, he was offering a chance for me to push myself outside my comfort zone and develop my mind and body. Mike is an exemplary coach, his attention to details and small nuances with techniques makes all the difference! I have spent my military career dealing with professionals and what sets the professionals apart from others is they have a extremely good foundation and are experts at the FUNDAMENTALS! I feel Coach Mike takes the same approach and has a crawl, walk, run, sprint approach to teaching. It has been an honor being his students and training with him has helped my mental health tremendously. I would recommend BJJ Lifestyle Academy to anyone!”
“Great place, definitely recommend. I immediately got a good first impression with Coach Mike - there was no high pressure sales pitch or “discounts” for immediate sign ups (actually get free week to try). Between the two gyms, class times are offered in early mornings, late mornings, evenings, and wknds, and have gi and no-gi options, so easy to work in variety. Coach and instructors are credible with lot of competition experience, but remain approachable. I have two years in and look forward to more at BJJ Lifestyle Academy.”
“Phenomenal people, coaches and owner. There is a great mix of all levels (beginner, intermediate, and advanced) of people who train here, and all are extremely supportive, respectful and passionate about the game. The owner Coach Mike is extremely genuine, skilled and passionate about teaching not only the game of jujitsu but for people to achieve their full potential. Too many great things to say about this place!”
“Top notch BJJ instruction at a very fair price! Whether you’re looking to enroll your child or train yourself BJJ lifestyle academy is the gym you’re looking for. Coach Mike takes great care to ensure you are learning the art and he teaches with passion. From competitors to hobbyists this gym will have plenty of appropriate training partners to choose from along with world class instruction. Don’t wait another day to start training and find out what the best version of yourself looks like”
