A rare gem. Such a great balance of competition and hobbyist. While training here I've met Animal vets, painters, EMT, hippies and they all mesh so well. Not only is the head coach Michael SUPER knowledgeable but the higher ranking members are as well. Also very welcoming & safe space for ALL levels.I always tell people who are interested in trying BJJ to come here.

I have been training at 10th Planet Oakland for about 6 months and cannot say enough about this gym and the people in it. Michael does a really good job in setting the tone for the culture in the gym. Everyone, not just the coaches, are super kind, respectful, and quick to help you out if you are struggling with a technique. If you are interested in trying out Jiu Jitsu or are on the fence, I highly recommend coming in for a trial class and see what it's like. You won't regret it.

I have been training at 10th Planet Oakland for 2 months and could not be anymore pleased. The coaches and the other members are phenomenal humans who have been super supportive in getting me started. My personal preference are the am classes due to fewer people which allows for more personal attention. Also my 8 year old son is now training here and I'm excited to learn and grow with him in this environment. Just this week we found out that the gym will be moving into a larger location just a few blocks away which I'm super excited for. All that to say I'm proud to be a Savage!*** The new location is beautiful!! Again I can't say enough about the quality of people I meet here. It's a direct reflection of Professor Hillebrand (owner/head instructor).
