Patrick Craig
"Highly Recommend BJJ gym in the East Bay! San Lorenzo BJJ is an excellent program. Great for beginners and seasoned grapplers alike. Manny is a great instructor who provides clear and informative classes. The community that's been cultivated here is welcoming and kind. Everyone is incredibly supportive and friendly. I've been attending here since May 2024 and I've grown so much not only as a beginner Brazilian jiu-jitsu practitioner, but as a person as well."
Brittany Arroyo
"Great gym! The people here are friendly and respectful- they make you feel welcome, no matter your skill level. Classes are a good mix of technique, drills, and live rolling. Iβve learned a lot since joining, and have had a lot of fun doing so. Highly recommend!"
Marne Chiccarelli
"I had the pleasure of teaching a seminar at San Lorenzo BJJ this past weekend. The school is easy to find and located in a plaza with some great food options. Everything was immaculate and very spacious. Manny was an amazing host. I look forward to returning soon!"
