    Both my 6-year old son and I attend classes at Hybrid so it's become a family affair for us. We love it! I can't speak highly enough on the level of technical teaching that come from the coaches. They're great with kids - a typical class teaches them discipline, techniques, and skills-based games that drill in the fundamentals. Also, the teammates and families that attend are great people. No egos. Just great vibes and respect. Ultimately, my main reasons for joining Hybrid were the option of a 6am class for both gi and nogi, good kids program, great price, instructors, and awesome people.

    Hybrid Academy was awesome! They have a little something for everyone. I'm currently a brown belt in Jiu Jitsu. I've been a MMA, and Jiu Jitsu competitor for over 10 years and I found a lot of value in Rick's personality and teaching style. Rick and the team are very friendly, welcoming, professional, and hard working. I really enjoyed the wrestling classes and love the wrestling/ AOJ influence in the Hybrid Jiu Jitsu style. Couldn't ask for a better training environment. Thank you guys!

    The perfect gym to join post Covid. This gym has 2 coaches with really big hearts. They are very positive, supportive and have lots of coaching experience. My nephew who is 6 loves it there. I train there as well as so fo some friends I referred. Classes are 1 hour long, consist of a light, 5 minute workout followed by close attention to technique. The classes are small, less than a dozen students most days. That means all of your learning is guided closely by the instructors and if you're an upper belt who is rusty can finally fix those little parts of the moves you've struggled with. Academy dues are among the lowest I've seen in years. They show takedowns and go from standing at least one round. No one is that over the top, aggressive, practitioner. They are easy to spot as the classes have two coaches overlooking everything. Gi and no Gi classes are taught and you can take a free trial.

    Not only am I learning Self defense but also getting into the best shape I've been in years! Honestly it's the best decision ever and the coaches are amazing,you have nothing to lose.

    If you're looking to challenge yourself mentally and physically while learning self defense, this is the place. I've seen top level competitors as well as beginners from all walks of life train here. Super friendly environment. Nothing but positive vibes and good energy.

She quickly progressed to the Team Impact MMA class and in 2024, after building confidence with the help of her coaches and teammates, she finally tried BJJ! She now competes and has multiple medals under her belt. Coach Kaitlynn, Coach Byron, Coach Reggie and Coach Junior are all amazing in their instruction in keeping it focused and fun! Their dedication of countless hours with the kids, especially on competition days, does not go unnoticed. The community we have found have become family. If you are looking for a MMA/BJJ gym for your kid, look no further than POI! A bonus is how clean the gym is!

With three classes a week, the value is incredible and the confidence boost I've seen in him has been huge. The coaches are amazing. Coach Jr brings this high energy that keeps the kids excited and engaged, while Coach Kaitlynn is very focused on teaching proper technique. They balance each other perfectly, and even in a group setting it truly feels like your child is getting one-on-one attention. If you're looking for a place where your kid can build confidence, burn energy, learn discipline, and have fun, I definitely recommend Point of Impact MMA for every kid.

They were needing some firm, but encouraging, semi-private lessons from a knowledgeable movement professional for their spinal conditions. I bought an initial package of 12 semi-private lessons just to see how they would do. Coach DJ is the ultimate megalomaniac instructor...he has all the requisite qualities to impart wisdom when your kids are not listening to you for pretty much similar stuff regarding fitness, form, nutrition, etc, It's been an awakening for me as the mom who just gets into a routine myself and not make the uncomfortable changes for the better... but it's happening!

Our oldest son has severe ADHD and has often been politely asked to never return to every sport or martial arts studio he's ever tried to attend. DJ was able to harness that energy and turn him into an amazing grappler who is entering into his first competition in December. Our littlest son is just there for a good time as he's only 5 but he absolutely loves it! Shortly after our sons started Jiu Jitsu, my husband and I quickly followed. We both wanted to do something fun and as a family but also for weight loss. He and I are both killing it and will be summer bod ready in no time! lol I recommend anyone to Welcome to the Jungle even to just try a class out for either you or your kids. You'd be surprised how much fun it is. I wish I could give them a million stars

I have been a hobbyist of various martial arts for years. Since day 1, the environment at Rounders was a perfect fit. The people are friendly and helpful. The hours and the selection of martial arts classes are excellent. Every last coach knows their stuff, and they teach both kids and adults classes with professionalism and care. I am also always grateful that the black belts, pro fighters, and other experienced trainees are so helpful during class. Not only do you have knowledgable coaches, but your peers support you here too. I have seen multiple martial arts gyms over the years, especially in Orange County, and while all have nice things to say about them, Rounders just hits every single mark. It's a nice and spacious facility with a great setup, but the people are what make it stand out. My only complaint is that I wish I had started here sooner.
