Checkmat Headquarters Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

"Absolutely love this place! I’ve been training here for a while now, and I couldn’t be happier. The instructors are not only super knowledgeable but also incredibly welcoming and supportive. The whole team makes you feel like part of a family from day one. The facility is always clean, the mats are well maintained, and the atmosphere is just awesome — positive, respectful, and motivating. Whether you’re a beginner or more advanced, this is a great place to train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Highly recommend!"

"Best gym I've been in SoCal. I've started training here after I made a visit. Mestre Leo Vieira and all the professors are well rounded. Besides mentioning that every once in a while I get to train with top world champions like Jasen Gimes and Adam Wardzinski. Amazing team"

"Best decision I’ve ever made! Joining this BJJ gym has been an absolute game changer for me. From the very first day, I felt welcomed, supported, and inspired. The coaches are world-class — incredibly skilled, patient, and genuinely passionate about teaching. They push you to be your best while making sure you’re learning in a safe, respectful environment. The energy here is unreal — everyone is friendly, motivated, and there’s a strong sense of community. It’s more than just a gym, it feels like a second home. The cleanliness and organization of the facility are top-notch too — they really care about every detail. I look forward to every training session. I leave completely exhausted but smiling ear to ear. If you’re even slightly considering trying Jiu-Jitsu, this is the place to do it. I seriously can’t recommend it enough!"
