Diz
"I could not recommend Kaizen Jiu Jitsu enough, especially for women. Going to a new gym let alone trying out a new sport as an adult can be a little intimidating — but the Coach here does a great job of making you feel welcomed and a part of the class. Super good vibes from everyone I drilled and rolled with, everyone is ready to help you learn and is focused. Not to mention the building itself is great, it stays super cool with that big fan. This Jiu Jitsu gym is really a hidden little gem in Sacramento. Excited to come back to the next class and train!!"
Luis Perez
"This is an awesome gym to train at! Gibran is a great coach to learn from, takes time with his students to make sure they’re understanding what is being taught. The gym itself is very clean and has lots of mat space. It’s a great, safe environment to train and make friends!"
Lizzy Reavis
"This gym is next level with masterful instruction. Kaizen is truly something special. From the moment you walk in, the space you're welcomed into is sleek, spacious and super clean. There’s plenty of room to roll on the mats and a huge fan which is great for how hot it gets in Sacramento in the summer. Everyone is always welcoming and kind, and the overall feel of the room is just super fun and friendly!! What really stands out here is the instruction. The head coach is not only highly accomplished but genuinely passionate about sharing their craft with a knowledgeable, technical approach! Gibran breaks down complex concepts in a way that's easy to understand, whether you're brand new or a seasoned grappler. If you are looking to get exceptional training while meeting some great people this is the right place."
