From the reviews

Was in town for the holidays and dropped in at Baem BJJ. The instruction was excellent and every single person I drilled/sparred with was super friendly. I’ve trained at many gyms and the people I met here were not only skilled and knowledgeable, but very welcoming.

★★★★★ — Kevin, Dec 2024

I've been attending classes at Baem for about two months and it has been an incredible experience. From the moment I walked in the door, I was welcomed with open arms and an attitude of true camaraderie. Denney has not only been knowledgeable and skilled, but he has also been extremely patient and encouraging.

★★★★★ — Tung, Feb 2023

I had the pleasure of dropping in on a Friday 6:30 AM Judo class. I reached out to the Baem BJJ instagram account and received a response promptly. The Judo program is a bit separate from the other programs so I was directed to reach out via phone to the coach of the Judo class.

★★★★★ — Kelson, Oct 2025

Highly recommend!!! One of the best training environments I have had the pleasure of experiencing. If you're living in the East Bay (or the Bay at large) and want to train BJJ (as hobby, self defense, or to compete) in a top notch academy, with a high level of instruction, and a REALLY great culture ...

New to BJJ? Start at Baem Jiu Jitsu - Fremont

Baem Jiu Jitsu - Fremont comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. If you've never rolled or set foot on a mat, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard rolling — reputable gyms build fundamentals (positions, escapes, and basic submissions) for weeks, live rolling eases in gradually, and tapping early keeps every roll safe. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out, and leave your ego at the door. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.

Your first BJJ class at Baem Jiu Jitsu - Fremont

Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

BJJ is a contact sport. Ease in, tap early and often, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
