Bay Jiu-Jitsu

Fantastic experience: I coached wrestling at Berkeley High School and this is where I went to train my own grappling. The instructors here *know* their game, the classes are well-organized and regulated, and the training partners are some of the best I've encountered.

Fantastic experience: World class grappling here. Amazing coaches. Great for working out.

Fantastic experience: Stephan Goyne has that rare mix of being an excellent fighter and competitor, an excellent teacher, and having a way with kids. His classes offer everything from top competitive moves for the serious BJJ competitor, to confidence and coordination building exercises for kids who need a focus in their life.

Fantastic experience: I love this place. The coaching is top-notch, just beyond great. I regularly take classes from Reilly and Matt, who are AMAZING, and have had classes with Stephan and Chris and John, also awesome. I love the philosophy behind the grappling here, it’s smart and analytical and practical but all about doing/application rather than thinking about how to grapple. The instruction is clear and the coaches work with your strengths. I have the best training partners, people are kind and respectful and helpful, there’s a real sense of being part of a team. As someone who has been in many martial arts gyms, I’ve never seen an environment as good as Bay. And as a woman in contact sports and as someone who coaches athletics for a living, these are the things that matter to me, I’m pretty grateful on a daily basis I found this place. AND there’s wrestling and CAMBO classes—-my favorites. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Just started as a 40-year-old. The instruction is excellent.

Fantastic experience: Great people and it's good training

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Stephan Goyne for probably 20 years. My two boys have been at Bay JiuJitsu since they were toddlers, the oldest is now a teenager. Wouldn't go anywhere else given a choice. Great group of folks to train with, more family than anything else. No attitude, no ego, just a great place to train and be a part of. Rielly Bodycomb is a great addition to the team, amazing Sambo skills and great with the kids. Come on in and try a free class!
