Auburn CA Jiu Jitsu Academy

Excellent BJJ and kickboxing gym!! The owner and the coach Jake is super welcoming and chill. He's teaching high level techniques that are so good for all level adults and kids. My boys, 9 and 11, have been training jitsu and wrestling for 4 plus years and they are loving the classes and learning a ton from Jake. They love rolling with Hannah, she's another instructor there, and she's so great for any girls and women who want to try out combat/self defense like this. Highly recommend!!

My two kids absolutely love training at Auburn Jiu Jitsu, and I couldn’t be happier with our experience! The coaches are truly exceptional—patient, encouraging, and incredibly skilled at teaching kids of all levels. They create a fun, supportive environment that builds confidence and discipline while keeping the classes engaging. My kids look forward to every session, and I’ve seen them grow not only in their jiu-jitsu skills but also in their respect and teamwork. The facility is clean, welcoming, and the community here feels like a family. Highly recommend Auburn Jiu Jitsu to any parent looking for a top-notch martial arts program for their kids!

I just spent the last month with Coach Jacob and Hannah. What I like most about their teaching style is how intuitive and systematic the lessons are. You start most classes with a warm up and neck strengthening. Every so often you will learn wrestling/stand up that will pair with your Jiu Jitsu. Very friendly gym culture here and when I started here the first week was a free trial period. I’d recommend anyone beginner or advanced to come learn with the team.

I’ve been waiting patiently for a place like this to come to Auburn! I’m not a grappler but they do offer some slots weekly to work on your stand up striking game. If you’re interested in learning more about the stand up or grappling game I’d definitely recommend them as they’ve been very welcoming to me. Grateful to have them locally, thanks coach Jacob!

Coach Jacob and Hannah are wonderful coaches and people. I started here nearly a year ago and shortly after enrolled all three of my kids. They are encouraging yet firm. My kids have advanced so much since starting and have even won a competition. The adult class is a great group of people who train hard and are always respectful. Come check it out and bring your kids.
