R S
"Signature of Jiu Jitsu: A welcoming family oriented martial arts in the Bay Area. Great for young kids who are interested in starting for the first time & or excellent for veterans who wish to return training. #1 priority in the gym is safety. #2 is training hard to surpass limits. Signature Bjj offers experience on and off the mat. A place to leave ego aside for the sole purpose of growth. The gym does not shame or judge. They elevate. Personally, I’ve crossed paths with numerous academy’s/ gymnasium’s regarding training self defense & offense. Without a doubt, mention that professor Taidi pertains not only a vast knowledge on Brazilian jiu jitsu and Japanese judo, however, a caring heart who genuinely enjoys teaching what he loves. Highly recommend young blood & old heads to swing by and try out a free trial!"

"I started my BJJ journey at Signature of Jiu Jitsu and have been training here for over a year and a half. From the beginning, the environment has been incredibly welcoming and encourages you to challenge yourself both physically and mentally. One of the things I’ve found most beneficial is the wide range of experience on the mats — from beginners to more experienced teammates, as well as competitors and non-competitors. This diverse mix helps round out your game, giving you the opportunity to learn from a variety of perspectives. Coach Taidi is a dedicated and attentive instructor who works closely with each student, fostering a community that’s not only respectful and supportive, but also focused on learning and growing together. Training is tailored to your goals, whether you're looking to compete or just train for personal growth. Everyone here genuinely loves jiu-jitsu, which makes it an inspiring place to train if you’re truly interested in diving into the art."
