Essence BJJ Walnut Creek

"We’ve had both of our boys training at Essence BJJ Walnut Creek for over a year now, and it’s been a fantastic experience. We come every week for different age group classes, and both of my kids are always excited to go. The instructors are amazing with the kids — they know how to connect with them, earn their respect, and create a really positive and encouraging atmosphere. You can tell they truly care about helping the kids learn and grow, both on and off the mat. The recent remodeling also really improved the facility — it’s a great space now, very clean and welcoming. Highly recommend Essence BJJ to any families looking for a top-notch martial arts program for their kids! Even though I only have my boys enrolled right now, I plan to sign my youngest daughter up in about a year as well."

"My son started jujitsu classes at here when he was four and a half, and now, at nearly six, he's excited to move up to the next age group. We like everything here so far! The coaches and staffs are awesome—skilled, patient, and dedicated. My son has shown remarkable improvement in both his physical abilities and confidence. The class atmosphere is welcoming and supportive, also teaching children discipline and respect. He's not only learning defense skills and becoming stronger but also developing a calm mind and good manners. Highly Recommend!"

"We love the experience we’ve been having at Essence BJJ. The professors are so kind and so patient while at the same time very observant and helpful. I really enjoy how family oriented the environment is and the outside events they hold really is a great way to get to know parents who already are welcoming. Kaylee and Gabriela do such a wonderful job at communicating and assuring any questions or concerns are answered. I appreciate the newsletters sent to keep us updated on that’s going on and tournaments we can attend. We look forward to being part of such a wonderful team and family."
