Essence BJJ Danville

“We joined Essence about a month ago and it was the best decision we have made. The facility is modern, spacious and clean. My daughters love the classes, the professors are amazing at keeping the kids engaged. I’d highly recommend Essence to anyone who is either interested in trying Jiujitsu for the first time or has been doing it for a while.”

“More than a team, I've built a family here. The whole team is always attentive and focused on your self-development, both on the mats and in life. The best jiu jitsu team in the region. Thank you team for all your support and teachings.”

“Professor Jerry, Professor Tony, and Carol have been amazing! Our child recently started Jiu Jitsu and I just completed a trial class as well. The professors are great with children (which isn't always the easiest thing to do). I appreciate their patience and the environment they create in both the kids and adults classes. The classes are structured and fun, teachings are easily digestible, and I was so thrilled to be able to stitch multiple movements together by the end of class. If you're new to BJJ (like we are) or if you're experienced and looking for a clean, beautiful studio to learn/practice BJJ, check out Essence. They have a great team. We're really, really happy with our experience so far!”

“Thank you Team Essence BJJ, you have created a warm welcome environment for my 8 year old son to come in a learn jiu jitsu and meet friends. We love coming in as the space is beautiful and the people are so kind. We highly recommend to everyone to come try it out.”

“Essence BJJ Danville is a beautiful, brand-new facility that looks and feels like a premium academy. Just like the Walnut Creek location, the atmosphere at Essence Danville is warm and inviting. Everyone is dedicated to improving themselves and others. The Essence professors Tony, Vini, and Jerry are high-level back belts with decades of teaching between them. Similarly, Eduardo and Brian are elite brown belts that compete regularly. Finally, Saturday open mats at Essence Danville are the best. There's a palpable feeling of community and togetherness. Can't recommend Essence enough!”
