What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Chris Tiopan
"My son and I have been coming here for a little over a year now. They have great kids and adult classes. In the past year I have not only seen my son’s skills increase in BJJ, but I also see his confidence and discipline improving daily. As for the adults class, there are all levels of skills here, from just starting and getting a good workout in to high level competition training. Even the upper belts work with you and want to see your BJJ skills improve. The details and technique that coach Jerry shows us is what we all like most about this place. Whether you are looking for a great family gym or want to compete at a high level, I recommend BJJ Society to everyone!"
Yosemite Bent
"I joined the Jiu Jitsu Society about 3 or 4 months ago, and I am a huge fan of Coach Jerry and this school. I was an avid gym lover for probably 20 years before joining, and I still train at the gym, but Coach Jerry and his team are a home away from home. His entire family trains here, and my son and I both train as well. It has been humbling to have muscles ache I didn't know I had and to be submitted by kids much younger than me, but I know if I stick to it even at my age, I will soon be at the other end of those submissions. Coach Jerry is quick to show me ways to get out of chokes or holds and gives real world advice to both my son and I. Additionally which I didn't expect at first my son has gained a confidence I hadn't seen in him before and it has been excellent for bonding with my son and I. He also shows me moves he learned in practice. I love Jiu Jitsu Society, and I am a lifelong member. Thank you, Coach Jerry"
Jeff Robbins
"I have known Jerry for a few years and have been training at his school for a couple of years. The teaching and camaraderie are top notch. If your thinking about trying bjj or have been doing it for awhile definitely check out this school"
Lisa Wharton
"Great gym, support on and off the mat. Watched my sons confidence grow and finally jumped on the mat with him. Only place he can put me in a choke and not get in trouble! Coaches break things down, and everyone is great to roll with. Nothing but positivity."
