SBG NorCal Jiu Jitsu & Mixed Martial Arts

Great staff, classes and people. The owners are some of the nicest people around.

Love this gym coaches give great feedback and cater really well to a variety of skill levels.

This is a great place for all levels. Friendly and knowledgeable instructors. Can’t wait for the next class!

Every gym should be like this; all-family friendly, clean, high energy, cool space makes you want to move in, SAFE, good parking. Full disclosure, growing up in the area I have known some of the staff forty years and completely trust them with my kids and health. I don't know if there is a another place like it.

PROS: Very beginner friendly, Jiu Jitsu class is very friendly. 10 DAY FREE TRIAL to see if you like it. (This is really awesome even though I didn’t like it.)CONS: Limited class schedule, high cost, they make you start in the intro class even if you’re experienced, the Jiu Jitsu class doesn’t have much live wrestling.WHOLE STORY:I’ve trained in Jiu Jitsu and Kickboxing for over a decade with a couple breaks. I’m just returning from one of those breaks (9 months) so I’m not in my finest form but I’m still pretty capable.I’m interested in the integration kickboxing class but after the fundamentals class which was very introductory drills I’m told by the coach that I’m not ready. To the surprise of the others I trained with in the intro class who were staying for the integrations class, I was told by the coach I couldn’t stay for the class. I didn’t get a good workout and a fundamentals class is absolutely not what I’m looking for which I communicated to the coach to no avail.Again, I’m not that good but I’ve had several exhibitions and won my one amateur fight by unanimous decision (at some rinky dink community venue, again, I’m not anything special) so I think I could hang in the integrations class. Did the coach think I’d get hurt or couldn’t keep up? What would be the harm in me staying for the class to see if I liked it?This is in addition to high prices for a limited schedule.SUMMARY:If you want to begin training in Jiu Jitsu and you don’t have much experience then this place might be just right for you. Otherwise, I’d keep looking, especially if you’ve got a bit more experience. BUT they do offer a 10 DAY FREE TRIAL so there’s no harm in checking it out for yourself.I’d also ask for their full schedule and prices at your earliest convenience. It was a red flag for me that neither of these are posted on their website.UPDATE: I just signed up at Pacific Ring Sports which has a wider class variety and schedule for a notably lower rate. Dropping my review down to 1 star.

Amazing Gym

I seriously don't recommend this gym company to anyone that coaches here are some the most Irritable rudely people I've ever met and nothing but condescending hypocrite.

SBG NorCal has a wonderful atmosphere and a terrific community.

Great place

Great atmosphere and coaches. Everyone on staff is friendly and wants to help you improve. It's all about getting better by that one percent and pushing yourself. The coaches and staff know everyone's names which makes it feel more like home.-
