EXCELLENT Based on 13 reviews Christine Tacotaco2025-04-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Friendly atmosphere, comprehensible lessons, in my opinion this place is the go-to for Jiujitsu. Joe Mendoza2025-04-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great instructors! Super clean! Excellent location and schedule of the classes! I love GB San Marcos! Chris Tunstall2025-04-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was very excited when I saw this studio open up. In the past I have joined a few different JJ studios, but I kept getting injured and spent more time recovering than actually training. I have had no issues at all with injuries and based off of the way each technique is being taught and the mentality of the students, I know I have found the perfect studio for myself. Professor Mike, Terri and Alex are all wonderful and great teachers. The structure of each class is well thought out and even the warm ups are designed to build up flexibility and strength in order to accomplish more demanding moves. If you are thinking about joining the JJ community, I highly recommend considering this studio. If you are anything like me, you will get hooked on the first class and you'll be in good hands for a long journey in Jiu Jitsu. Kathy Martin2025-03-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have learned really a lot in a short time practicing at the new GB studio. It is so bright there and nice and we really like Prof Mike & Coach Alex. They are fun to practice with & we like the games we play at the end of class. Written by Declan & Finn. Ryan Kendall2025-03-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Starting my Jiu-Jitsu journey here has been an absolute solid decision. The staff is impeccable, the professors are clear in their instruction, very attentive on feedback during drills, very safety conscious on avoiding unnecessary injuries, and very personable and approachable off mat. Could not be happier! carlos sibaja2025-03-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is an amazing place to train. Professor Mike is great. I tried jj in another school before and didn't like the class this one is for me. Great cardio my body is sore everyday and I look forward to getting better and escaping Mike. Alexandra Sibaja2025-03-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I LOVE THIS PLACE! Mike and Terri are great professors. I felt so welcomed and seen. Mike pays close attention to all the students and explains all the techniques so well. I love the community they have built and am so happy to be a part of it.
