What Our Students Say

Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.

Daniel O'Henley

"Dojo is my sanctuary! As a long time Jiu Jitsu practitioner when I moved to Huntington Beach and had to leave my first school, Dojo was the best place I found after checking out all the schools in the area. Both brothers Alvin and Frank are super cool and Leo is one of the nicest Bjj legends I've ever met. I have been training there 4 years + now and I feel very comfortable there. I use jiu jitsu as a stress relief these days but this school is top notch for competitors and lifestyle players alike. Joining Checkmat has been everything I ever wanted in a jiu jitsu school, I just wish I found them earlier in my career. The vibe in this school can not be beaten and anyone who comes by will notice that right away. Highly recommend!"

Eduardo Lomeli

"Dojo is one of the pillars of Jiu Jitsu with amazing trainers. The location, art and vibe are incredible. I fell in love with the location as soon as I went through the door. If you want to take your child and or you're an adult looking to get training from inspiring instructors, definitely give them a try. You won't regret it. 🥋"

Tom Dude

"Dojo is amazing. The vibe is unbeatable and you can tell everyone wants the whole team to improve and meet individual goals. While many note that people there are not the type to try to take your head off every roll, they are also the type that will meet the intensity of the other person, so you can go easy or not. High level practitioners come by regularly, including world champions and legends. I could not have found a better place. The community really makes you feel like you belong which makes me want to stay for decades to come."

Jaime Jimenez

"The community here is amazing, with fellow students always willing to roll and share tips. The facility is clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything you need for a great training session. Whether you're looking to get in shape, learn self-defense, or compete, This place has something to offer everyone."
