I really can't explain what the San Diego Fight Club has done for my family and myself. Charlie Kohler has really provided an environment to grow mentally and physically. The coaching staff is top notch! From Brandon Magana(Old Guard) to Nick Oliver(New Guard) and everybody in between, the coaching has always been enjoyable! Five of the six members of my family has trained on that mat including multiple siblings and cousins. I recommend jiu jitsu to everybody, especially San Diego Fight Club Jiu Jitsu!

SD/FC has a welcoming fun family vibe. The coaches are high level instructors who are easily accessible. The training partners are passionate about getting better and protecting their partners. The facilities are new and kept very clean. There’s tons of parking. There is also a gas station right next door, as well as other good local food spots for post training.

San Diego Fight Club is an amazing place to train. The level of skill from the instructors is unmatched, the camaraderie between the students is amazing, and quality of instruction is outstanding. Whether you want to training strictly in BJJ or you are looking to round out your arsenal with striking technique like boxing and kickboxing, this is the club to join.

Great place as a woman to Train! Charlie Kohler is a legend in the San Diego MMA/Jiu Jitsu community. It was a blessing to receive my blue belt from him and I look forward to keep rolling til the belt turns black. Nick Oliver is an ADCC Open winner and his techniques will elevate your game and make you a better roller. Come try a class for free 😊

I have been attending SDFC for a few months now. Charlie Kohler (the head coach) creates and extremely non judgmental, physically challenging, and rewarding atmosphere at SDFC. The other coaches (such as Nick Oliver, the one who introduced me to SDFC) help facilitate this atmosphere with their personability and martial arts experience. The 'fight-club' like atmosphere as well as extremely knowledgeable/personable coaches and staff is the reason that I have kept going back. If you are looking for a fight gym or training center that has the more personal feel of a 'fight-club' rather than a corporate MMA gym, yet trains just as hard (if not harder) SDFC is the place to go for BJJ, boxing, and kick-boxing.
