The Best Jiu-Jitsu Training in Alameda

"This gym recently opened and is off to a great start. Zach, the head owner/coach, is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt and former MMA fighter. He is extremely knowledgeable, but also welcoming and friendly to everyone, no matter their level of experience. The physical gym itself is very nice. There's a big screen TV, a full-size arcade game, and big comfy chairs to lounge in at the front. The back has the mat space, which is large and clean. The classes have a good mix of students at different levels. Overall, a great place to train grappling, kickboxing or MMA (or all three) in Alameda."

"I can't say enough great things about Coach/Owner Zach and the amazing team at Island City Jiu Jitsu. Coach Zach is a BJJ black belt as well as a former MMA fighter, so he has a lot of experience and depth of knowledge. I've been training Muay Thai for several years now, and Island City Jiu Jitsu is the newest gym I've started attending—and it's been a fantastic experience so far. Their Muay Thai classes are a great balance of technique and conditioning. Coach Zach and Coach Uche do an amazing job tailoring each class to meet the needs of both beginners and more experienced individuals."
