City of Champions

City of Champions is my home. I first started looking into bjj gyms around the fall of 2016. I tried a bunch of places out and felt right at home at City of Champions. Everyone respects each other, rolls hard, and keeps each other safe most importantly. The facilities are clean and the atmosphere is mellow off the mats, which is exactly how I like it. Dustin (head coach) is an amazing teacher that has an old school mindset, with new school techniques. His experience in competition at the highest level of Bjj has made an impact on my own mindset and abilities under duress. I absolutely love it here. You will become family just like I did! 2.5 years later, and I am still as excited to learn as the day I first walked in. The only difference is that now I could choke my previous self out :)

City of Champions is easily the first gym that I would recommend to anyone who is interested in learning BJJ or Muay Thai in the San Diego area.

Dustin, head coach and owner, is an extremely knowledgeable and talented BJJ practioner; along with being an overall great instructor towards both competitors and hobbyists; kids and adults. Dustin teaches both gi and no gi.

Hiro, the Muay Thai instructor, is equally skilled and an outstanding teacher in his craft. Hiro teaches a traditional Muay Thai style.

Lastly, the sense of community at City of Champions is second to none.

Highly recommend to come to this place to learn Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and others.

I found this gym while walking my dog around the neighborhood. I take Muay Thai with Aziz and Hiro. I also take Strength & Conditioning with Aziz. They are fantastic coaches and they are truly committed to the growth of their students. I've been going there about 10 months and love it.

I've been to a few gyms, but this is by far the best gym I've been to. It's a friendly and welcoming environment. It's a great place to train, be fit, and start living a healthier lifestyle. The coaches are very friendly, knowledgeable, and motivating. There are classes in the morning and evening, so it's perfect when it comes to working around my schedule. It's also a perfect place to meet some awesome people. You would have the opportunity to try out any classes as much as you please for 1 week for FREE! I always leave satisfied and feeling great about myself!
