At first I was nervous but coach Brandon and Jasmine made me feel comfortable learning and belonging in the class. I left feeling excited for the next class! I met a bunch of ladies and made new friends. I finished class famished and had the 'black belt' açaí bowl made by Kiana, it was so yummy and replenished me! Can't wait to continue my jiujitsu journey!!

This place is by far the MOST unethical place I've ever had the disservice of attending. I began…read moretaking jiu jitsu in September religiously, and the morals of the gym have steadily declined ever since. The owner sneakily switched and canceled class times without talking to clients (3 times in 2 weeks), brought in unqualified coaches who are known to have poor reputations around the community, AND failed to tell the jiu jitsu instructor that class times were canceled/changed - leaving both students and parents confused and frustrated on the status of the classes they invest hundreds of dollars to take on a monthly basis. Once I was made privy to these changes, I took the liberty to take my frustrations to the owner's father, Kent, who runs the front desk. I explained that I felt that his business practices were unprofessional and unethical and he proceeded to raise his voice and verbally attack me in front of his paying customers. I highly discourage anyone from even considering attending this place. They run a poor business and don't value their students or the people that work for them.

I can no longer support this place. They have completely changed their entire program and moved…read moreaway from being about martial arts mentality. There is no respect or loyalty with their clients or instructors. Without warning or discussion they eliminated my jiu-jitsu program and eliminated the boxing program. They brought in some shady guy who has burned several other gyms in Stockton, Concord, and San Jose to run a striking program. The martial arts community is small and this Tony guy they now have is not trustworthy. I am now training with Darcio Lira Jiu-jitsu in Livermore and would strongly encourage anyone reading this to not trust this place. You are not respected here as a client and you will not be respected here as an instructor.

We've tried other dojos, but we came back because of the quality of the training and the strong focus on safety. Training can be challenging at times, but the kids truly enjoy it and everyone is very welcoming. I really appreciate that the students are taught to help and take care of new students. It sets a great example and teaches respect instead of bullying.

We ended up joining with a monthly membership and feel it is affordable as we are regular paycheck to paycheck people. This place is very clean and everyone is so friendly!!! It is a very different experience for me compared to other gyms or classes I have been in. It has been life changing for me to feel accepted and supported as I am in NO WAY an athlete or "in shape" person. I have felt nothing but support and kindness. It has been very positive for my 11yo son as well!!! Arena training center truly has a family vibe! You walk in and you are welcomed.

We came in as potential clients for the youth classes and we were shocked how disorganized the…read moreclasses were. There was no seemingly structure. I think there are too many kids with different status (beginner vs advanced) and age ranges 4-16. When they broke into drills there was an instructor showing the 6 (ish) year olds the drill and then walked over to the older kids with another instructor. I was baffled. How do you leave little ones to do a partnered hitting drill by themselves? There were 5-6 instructors but they seemed to talk amongst themselves and not demonstrate or monitor the kids. Sandy stated they have students completing their degrees, who need hours coaching. So basically, volunteers who don't care. I'll keep my money. They need to reevaluate their business model and hire dedicated coaches.
