From the reviews
I had been training jiu jitsu for over a decade before I became ill due to Covid and was unable to train for over a year. I reached out to Coach Anthony help me get back on the mats.
Coach Anthony's technical skills and way of teaching is sharp as a knife. He presents instructions and a techniques that are easy to understand and apply. On top of that one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. Definitely recommend 👌
Professor Anthony is a lifelong martial artist, and his passion shines through in his instruction. Good energy, detailed, easy-to-grasp techniques and lessons, and accomodations for brand new students and skilled competitors alike.
Anthony trained me, he's a truly great coach. As an (inexperienced) woman, Anthony made me feel comfortable while taking his class. I've definitely learned a lot while having fun! He's very thorough and patient.
New to BJJ? Start at Oceanside Kioto BJJ - Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Oceanside Kioto BJJ - Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu 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 Oceanside Kioto BJJ - Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
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 when you call. 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.
