During that time, I've trained at a couple other gyms and they don't compare in regards to ethics, teachings, cleanliness, environment & respect level. My teammates are seriously the best people! Jiyu is truly an overlooked hidden gem! The Lead Professor, Ron Dinson is as cool as they come. His passion for Jiu Jitsu is contagious and it shines through in his teachings and training!

“Jiyu is a quality, safe, and welcoming place to train! It was very clean. I came in for an open mat, and Professor Ron provided amazing advice based on his observations. All the students were welcoming and nice as well. Definitely coming back!”
“I dropped in for a class while I was visiting from CT and the class was awesome. Instructor was super friendly, class was comprehensive (standup, takedowns, passing, submissions). Will definitely be back next time I'm in the area!”
“Such an amazing Brazilian Jiu-jitsu school in Santa Clarita. Ray, Jen, and Ron are seasoned veterans and great BJJ instructors which is hard to find. They truly care about their members. Everyone is super welcoming. Overall great place to train.”
“Best place for your kids to train Jiu Jitsu in SCV! My son (age 11, and daughter, age 5) train there. We were looking for a school to train at after trying all the gyms in SCV and are grateful to have found Jiyu having it recommended by neighbors and friends. My son said, "I have learned more here than any other school he has been to" and he is having fun doing it. He is happy to have found a home for his training. There are kids that challenge him in different ways and he is learning a lot. They have white belts, grey belts of different ages and yellow belts, and open mat Sunday for anyone wanting to train. They have classes focusing on the advanced students which goes beyond the fundamentals. Whether you are a beginner like my daughter who just started, or advanced, this is a place that will create a fun and safe learning environment and will push your child's growth and confidence. Why Jiyu? Quality training, safe environment, Best Value and Culture! Jiyu has the most generous trial period of any other school in SCV, and various promotions and discounts available. One thing you will feel coming to Jiyu is the culture is inviting, no pressure sales. They have a number of Black Belts there teaching the class with other belts to help. Every month they have a friends and family day where your child's friends or family can get on the mat and show what they are learning in a fun way.”
