I enrolled my child at Kaizen Jiu Jitsu in Sacramento, and the experience has exceeded our expectations in every aspect.

My daughter is really enjoying Kaizen! She's building confidence, learning new skills, and sweating like crazy 😀 Classes move at a good pace with demos and lots of time for practice with classmates (while guided as needed). Kaiser has a really supportive culture. It wasn't about "winning," the teacher and other students were all focused on helping each-other excel.
Kaizen Jiu Jitsu is a very special training facility. I’ve been to other fight gyms and this one is definitely in its own tier. The patience and understanding Gibran really embodies is that of which a true coach should have. Not only is everything explained and shown thoroughly but through his energy the rest of the athletes pick up on the positive culture and support that is needed for everyone in the gym to grow and thrive. There is no toxic or aggressive energy and no matter who you are you can fit in, whether you’re just figuring out what grappling is or you’ve been in the game for quite some time and you’re a legitimate practitioner. Something different is being built around Kaizen and I’m excited to be a part of it. If you’ve been considering beginning to train this is absolutely the place to start. The community here is unparalleled and is evolving into something great!
One of the nicest looking gyms in Sac, it’s also very clean. The location is great as well, it is right off the freeway. The coach, Gibran is very passionate about jiu jitsu, his way of teaching is very clear and concise. I highly recommend this gym.
I could not recommend Kaizen Jiu Jitsu enough, especially for women. Going to a new gym let alone trying out a new sport as an adult can be a little intimidating — but the Coach here does a great job of making you feel welcomed and a part of the class. Super good vibes from everyone I drilled and rolled with, everyone is ready to help you learn and is focused. Not to mention the building itself is great, it stays super cool with that big fan. This Jiu Jitsu gym is really a hidden little gem in Sacramento. Excited to come back to the next class and train!!
