From the reviews
SD/FC has a welcoming fun family vibe. The coaches are high level instructors who are easily accessible. The training partners are passionate about getting better and protecting their partners. The facilities are new and kept very clean. There’s tons of parking.
When I first stumbled upon the San Diego Fight Club, I was a shell of the person I used to be. Lost in a fog of depression and anxiety, I felt like I was drowning in a world that had long since forgotten my name.
I really can't explain what the San Diego Fight Club has done for my family and myself. Charlie Kohler has really provided an environment to grow mentally and physically. The coaching staff is top notch!
Came in not knowing anything about Jui Jitsu except for watching fights on TV, but Nick Oliver gave me an introductory class, was super patient with all my questions, and walked me through basic etiquette, positions, and terminology which helped me feel more comfortable and confidence.
Your first BJJ class at San Diego Fight Club
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.
