“I tried out 2 classes and had a great experience! The community is very welcoming and the coaches are great! Very friendly to complete beginners and also as a woman it was very comfortable and there was no awkwardness. I was trying to find a gym with a similar culture to the one I trained in NJ, and I have found it :)”

“I met Martin when I started jiujitsu in Los Altos nearly 2 years ago. Martin was the first black belt who took time from his workout to help me out as a complete beginner. I'm very happy to see that he opened his school in Excelsior. If you want to try out something new, I can't recommend him enough!”

“I had a fantastic few months at Excelsior! I felt welcomed since my first day and learned a lot from Martin and Jyn. The sense of community is great and everyone is very friendly and willing to help each other out with techniques/drills or some pointers during rolls. A lot of members compete too if youu2019re looking for that. Would highly recommend people check it out.”

“I was excited to train again with the crew here at Excelsior. The coaches Jyn and Martin are long time training partners of mine and I have nothing but great things to say. Itu2019s a blackbelt wife and husband combination, something extremely unique in this sport and what stands out as something I can only get here at Excelsior. Two different games, two different (but complimentary) perspectives, two different strengths”

“Been working with Martin one on one now for a little over a month and if I was going to recommend anyone to train somewhere it would be here with him. He's a stand up guy, true to his word while also having a kind and welcoming tone.”

“Martin and Jyn are awesome! They are incredibly friendly and welcoming to new guests. They really care about their students and are thoughtful of the different levels of students that participate. Each student gets the proper attention they deserve. Parking is never an issue for me. I usually park right in front or just around the corner. Most importantly, my daughter loves coming to class. Kids have the opportunity ”
