After training for many years in Oregon I moved to San Diego and was looking for a new place to train. I found this gym based on the reviews and so grateful I did. If you are just starting to train or have experience this gym is excellent for all skill levels. A relaxed atmosphere with great instruction and an awesome place to improve and learn. If you’re looking for a place in SD I highly recommend it.

I moved to San Diego and was recovering from Hip Surgery. I walked in and asked if I could watch training while I finish my recovery. For 2 months I would walk in and just watch training and made friends and felt super included into the team. One year later I still train here and consider them a family. The vibes are great, the people are great, and the kids program is great.

Grappling Dynamics is a great place to learn and train jiu jitsu! The head coaches are extremely friendly, skilled, and talented instructors. They foster a friendly and mature environment and the students reflect that. There is also a wide range of skills represented by the students, so I would recommend beginners and experienced practitioners alike to train here!

My son has trained at Grappling Dynamics for a little over year. I'm a Jiu Jitsu black belt myself, have been to a ton of gyms, and can confidently say that Grappling Dynamics has the best kids' program in town (their adults program is great too, I drop in occasionally). The coaches strike the perfect blend of discipline, technique, exercise, and fun. Kids just "get" the vibe and expectations, and are shockingly well behaved in class. We probably have 5 gyms closer to us, but I happily drive out to Grappling Dynamics a couple times a week for my kids' Jiu Jitsu classes. Can't recommend it enough!

We can’t get enough! I had to even buy some Mats for the garage. Brandon, Mike, and Seymour are top notch. I love everything about this place. From being treated like family, to the discipline, and of course the skills and training. I often ask my son what was his favorite part of the day. It’s usually jiu jitsu at grappling dynamics. I’m so glad I got my son involved in this at 5 years old. Wish I would have started training 20 years ago but better late than never. I highly recommend grappling dynamics to anyone and everyone. You won’t regret it
