I have tried…read moreother gyms that offer similar instruction, but none come close to the authenticity and quality at Extreme Power Gym. Ajahn Ruben takes a personal interest in every member of this gym. He uses his years of experience, training and knowledge to make each class and personal training session valuable. My daughter and I attend the adult classes and open gym training. She enjoys the disciplined training and the supportive atmosphere. My grandson attends the kid's classes, and he absolutely loves and respects Ajahn Ruben. Ajahn Ruben has taught him better listening skills, focus, discipline, and the importance of being teachable. I have watched the transformation of a quiet, shy kid into a confident, strong young man. Thank you Ajahn Ruben!

If I could give no stars I would. This gym is a one way relationship. As long as you're dumping…read moremoney in, they are nice. As soon as you want to cancel your membership they hassle you, ghost you, and bring up unclear contract verbiage. Their fight nights are also not transparent what so ever. They encourage you to join and then surprise you with $20 a person door cover. In the course of maybe 4 or 5 months I spent over $1k on a youth membership with hidden fees, overpriced gear, and a lack of transparency on events. Management is impossible to get ahold of, and the female manager Jessica? Looses all customer service skills the moment you say you want to cancel your membership. Absolutely DO NOT recommend.

This review is long overdue, but it's better late than never…read more As a petite woman, stepping into a dojo and starting a sport that is typically dominated by male athletes is very intimidating. Professor Michio and his wife, Coach Kidd, make this sport really worthwhile. The people who also train BJJ here are just as friendly and welcoming. I honestly didn't think that I would ever stick to training BJJ, but here we are now, over three years of my first day of jiu jitsu, Excel is still THE best place to train, even after training at different facilities, hands down. If you're on the fence about trying BJJ or checking out Excel, go for it. You won't regret it.

This time around I wanted to find an instructor that was patient with beginners and could articulate the lessons in a way that anyone at any level could comprehend. Maz is just that. He is a super intelligent being who adapts to the individual he's working with. Over the last 9 months I've improved my boxing skills and Maz always is sure to change things up and throw in challenges to enable consistent and continued growth. Aside from the wide variety of combat sports, Maz also offers healing sound baths, cupping sessions, and AMR/RMR testing through PNOE which has taken my fitness to a whole new level. Most importantly, I love the community. The gym has heart and soul, and is a safe place all individuals to come and be themselves. I've never felt judged. Not mention there are two precious dogs that brighten up the atmosphere anytime you walk in door. This place is my home. Thank you Maz/Zenith Active!

I was able to drop-in on the 6 AM and 7 PM Jiu Jitsu classes. I had reached out via Instagram and…read moregot a response quickly. I arrived at the gym, and signed a waiver and paid a drop-in fee. To my surprise, the fee was for a day pass with access to all classes (not a class fee). This gave me the desire to want to come back later that day to get in another class. The morning class was taught by coach Jonathan, there were about 10 people in attendance. Class consisted of warm ups/stretching, techniques, and live rolls. The night class was taught by Coach Geo. As he was greeting everyone he was familiar with, he shook my hand and greeted me as he didn't recognize me (thought that was really cool of someone who is so accomplished within the sport). This was a much larger class with about 40-50 people in attendance. Class consisted of warm-ups, techniques and live rolls. This academy has more than just Jiu-Jitsu for those who like to cross train in other martial arts or strength & conditioning. It was a solid day of training. Thank you for allowing me to drop-in and I would love to return again!

I wish I had had time to take more classes. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. As a woman, it feels a bit daunting walking into a BJJ class, but I felt at home and at ease almost immediately. The gym is clean; I loved the access to locker rooms and although I didn't use it, loved that they have a sauna available in the women's locker room. The class format was easy to follow and the instructor (Ricky) did a great job explaining the technique and giving feedback as he walked around. Thank you to Lauren for the warm welcome and tour when I arrived, and to all the "regulars" for helping me feel right at home!

I can't say enough good things about Master An and his studio! I drive several miles just to bring my son here even though we live next to a couple studios in town. I wouldn't go anywhere else - this studio is worth every mile! We highly recommend Master An and his studio to anyone looking for a Taekwondo class in North County.
