"Alex and the team at 10th planet Walnut Creek are great. We like that they have both JiuJitsu (no Gi) and striking classes. The other students are welcoming and supportive. My son has trained Gi for 3 years and found the no Gi techniques easy to pick up with Alex’s instruction. They make it fun to learn and are able to describe techniques in ways that are relatable to those new to the sport. You will get a great workout, learn a new skill, and develop mental fortitude. Also, parking is easy and the location is easy to get to."
"Awesome gym! Fantastic instruction and super welcoming community. I visited from out of town and felt right at home. Thanks for the class! 🤙"
"I would recommend training here to anyone. A good mix of eager competitors and hobbyist level practitioners."
"Alex Canders has a wealth of coaching & competition experience that he delivers in an accesible way to students of all ages & skill levels. My experience at his academy was nothing short of amazing, and I will be sure to stop by again when I am in the area. If you are so fortunate to live nearby, join this school! 💯"
