"Excellent place to train and learn jiu jitsu. I've been a member here for 7 months and have high remarks to share about: 1) the quality and consistency of the instruction and training room, 2) the positive culture carried by the members, and 3) the cleanliness and tidiness of the facility. Quality/Consistency - The coaches/instructors here lean into modern teaching philosophies and have an emphasis on specific training and live sparring. Every session is a great workout that has you focusing on skill development with movements and situations that will contribute to your jiu jitsu game. Culture - The members here genuinely care about each other and only focus on getting themselves and each other better at Jiu Jitsu. Outside of this, there is a strong affinity for keeping each other safe and having fun overall. There isn't a pressure to compete, but we do have regular competitors in the gym -- it's been fun to see people test/challenge themselves. Facility - The gym is cleaned meticulously including the mats which are disinfected after every session. The bathrooms are clean (and smell nice) which also have a shower if you need it. It's conveniently located with ample parking. Lastly, and most importantly, there was never any pressure to join as I was looking for a new gym. The staff highly encourage you to see what else is out there and ultimately decide what is best for you. I can't recommend Aspire to Inspire Livermore (JG Academy) highly enough. Let's train!"
"I visited JG Academy in Livermore for a Saturday morning open mat recently. What a beautiful space! It was very clean and well-maintained. The atmosphere was welcoming and supportive, and I got some great technical rolls in with their students. I highly recommend if you’re looking for a quality jiu jitsu school in Livermore."
"What a phenomenal place to train at! This family run gym maintains an extremely welcoming, friendly, and fun atmosphere. The instruction is top notch as well. Coach AJ is not only a very knowledgeable instructor, but also a highly effective teacher. There are also morning and evening classes, which is very convenient when I can’t make an evening class, and an open mat on Saturdays as well. This gym has great training partners, great instructors, and is an ideal place to train"
"I’ve been training jiu jitsui for over 7 years now and have about a year of training at JG Livermore. Great gym, great people, and no egos. AJ runs a great class and Robby does a great job with the morning class too. There’s no bad vibes in the gym at all and the competition is phenomenal. Whether you want to come in and get tournament ready and get a lot of really tough rounds in or you just want to get started learning bjj it’s great for both. It’s a relaxed environment with no weird rules and everyone gets treated like an adult. Also great representation at every belt level with experienced jiu jitsu veterans and phenomenal talent. This gym has taken off and it’s only gonna keep getting better."
