Atos Jiu-Jitsu

I’ve been bringing my 5 year old daughter here for more than 6 months. The vibe is very family like. It’s relaxed and serious at the same time. We are happy here!

Will definitely come back here again to train! Although I came to train at Atos solo, they really foster a strong family friendly atmosphere - so I was immediately made to feel welcome coming from a different gym and city entirely.
I came during Gi worlds, however still had quality instruction. Shout out to coaches Mike Perez, Fred and Calon for world class techniques and hospitality. And also a shout out to Laura at reception for being so helpful! If you are a hobbyist or competitor, you'll have no trouble finding your feet here.

Super technical instruction, tough training partners. If you want to get as good as possible as fast as possible.. why would you go anywhere else? Atos is the Harvard/Stanford/Yale of BJJ.

Oh and.. the people are super nice all around: students, administration, coaches.

Also.. lots of classes, plenty of training time to fit my busy schedule.

I do day time class and rude and act like they are god in this sports. No thank! Thet go diferent place and cheaper to! $240 month and i have to pay registrate money and have to buy atos clothes to use only? No thank!

Best place for kids to train, this place is a factory for little Jiu-Jitsu monsters, they treat the kids with respect and love, but they teach complex techniques and don't treat them like babies, they are taught submissions and how to tap right away, truly excellent Jiu-Jitsu teachers. They do offer a one week trial if you're on the fence.

Trained here for 7 months and absolutely loved it.
Prof. Galvao and his staff have really created something special. Not only does every class feel like a seminar, comp class and the rounds really leveled my game up fast.
After class there's always someone willing to drill or try new moves. Will def go back whenever I'm in SD.

Came all the from Brazil just to train with them and couldn’t be more grateful. They welcomed me and my dreams with opened arms and they are so helpful towards my goal. They have the BEST environment that I ever seen in a Jiu jitsu gym.

I love training at Atos for so many reasons! Yes, they teach the best jiujitsu, their method of teaching and structure works so well for how I learn, but they also have an accommodating class schedule for any lifestyle and such a good environment, good vibes, and great leadership. Definitely check it out.

Best place I’ve ever trained at and I’ve been doing Jiu Jitsu for 7 years. Very friendly training environment and has many people at different skill levels for if you want to train as a hobby or if you want to be a world class competitor. Andre and Angelica have been amazing representatives of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu! I’m in law enforcement and I continue to get everyone I work with to come train and learn this essential martial art.

I’ve been training Jiu Jitsu for over a decade and have been fortunate enough to visit academies from all o we the world. Without a doubt, Atos HQ is the best Jiu Jitsu academy on the planet. It doesn’t matter if you want to be a world beater, or just enjoy training for the fun of it, you won’t find a better atmosphere of more welcoming individuals. The instruction quite literally cannot be topped anywhere else. Do yourself a favor and stop in!

Best BJJ gym in the world. If you’re in San Diego and want world class BJJ, Atos is your place. There is a reason people move from across the country to San Diego, to train at this gym. From beginners to world-class, they have you covered.

Atos is home. I value the instruction and commitment to the sport and martial art that Professor Andre Galvao displays through his daily habits and self. It’s a inspiration and not only him but the multiple champions and overall team. If your a beginner, advanced and/or looking to get the best experience out of your self through challenging training or through technique and learning the art, then Atos HQ is a great place to invest. I believe you will be making the best choice. 🙏🏽❤️ And you don’t have to take my word for it. When you step through the door you will see for yourself

This place is amazing. They say San Diego is the mecca of BJJ. Well, Atos is the mecca of the mecca of BJJ. Everywhere you turn, you see a world champion. Honestly, it's a little intimidating, but if you get over that and embrace that a place full of so much talent will help you become the best you can be (whatever that is for you), then you will get a lot out of this experience. The instruction is top notch. They offer tons of classes at good times for working stiffs like me. They also have a thriving women's program--the largest of any gym I've ever seen--thanks to Prof.

Atos Jiu-Jitsu is a great place. I mostly train in the women's class and it's always so fulfilling. The women are so supportive of each other. My children are also a part of the program they have been through the kids program and are now old enough to do adult classes.

Welcoming, safe and clean environment with world class instructors for all ages and levels.

This place is truly amazing. We enrolled my son when he was 6 and the instructors are all so wonderful. The kids learn respect, discipline and have a great time while forming amazing bonds and friendships with the other kids as well as the instructors.

We loved it so much here my husband and I joined shortly after. Everyone is so welcoming and supportive you can't help but feel like part of a family. I highly recommend Atos to anyone, any skill level or age you will not be disappointed.

If you're looking for a gym whether you've never done jiu jitsu , or you're a competitive athlete, this is the place. I especially recommend this school as a woman, since there's an incredibly supportive and welcoming group of ladies. The environment here is condusive to rapid learning yet still having fun training. Every instructor is knowledgeable and having so many different instructors with their respective stylistic differences is a game changer. Highly recommend. Ladies, drop by the women's class every Tuesday and Thursday night at 5:45!!

My husband, daughter, and I joined this gym a few months ago and have had a great experience so far. I was a little skeptical but I did the week trial and ended up loving it. I typically attend the evening basics class with Prof. Mike Carbullido and the Tu/Th women's class with Prof. Angelica Galvao these instructors are nothing short of amazing. They are very welcoming and helpful to new students. The other students in the class have also been welcoming and nice especially when I let the higher belts know I have not been practicing for long. I highly recommend this gym to anyone looking to

Atos has been an amazing experience for my son who joined when he was 6 years old. The coaches are outstanding and truly care about the kids. They make you feel as if you are part of their family. The will teach your child Respect, Humility, Discipline, and provide your child the guidance on how to be successful. We are truly blessed to have our son part of the Atos Team

Happened to be in town to visit family and go check out the sights in San Diego, so we came to train in one of their fundamentals classes to satisfy our bug for some bjj training.

What an awesome experience! Staff was friendly and super helpful, and the Galvao's are so sweet and welcoming.

Being a girl training in BJJ, it's always hit or miss with finding a place to help challenge you but also to help you grow. Their students were all so friendly and helpful. It was easy to feel accepted from the very beginning.

Thank you for the opportunity to meet and roll with you all. Oss!

New to jiu-jitsu and San Diego... this place made me feel EXTREMELY COMFORTABLE even as a young woman grappling with 30+ year old guys at 6:15am.

- Top notch instructors and competition

- Plenty of parking

- 1 free week for locals

- Carlos at the front desk is the man

- Awesome, intense energy the moment you step through the door

- I don't know how they keep the facility so damn clean (including bathrooms)

Can't say enough good things about the place.

Atos is one of the best places to train jiu jitsu in the entire world. Since being here for only a few months, I met so many people who have moved their lives from another state or another country to be in San Diego just to train at Atos! This place truly does live up to its name with top notch training from Professors Andre and Angelica Galvao.

I have enjoyed every class I've taken here. Every instructor is always clear and breaks down each technique so anyone can understand and learn. Questions are always encouraged here. The other students are super supportive and welcome every new

We switched to Atos jiu jitsu 6 months ago from another jiu jitsu studio. What a huge huge difference. It's a whole new level for my 6 and 4 year olds. Amazing things about this academy:

1) huge studio with two large mats, waiting area with couches, two bathrooms (big plus for a large studio), breezy and doesn't even feel air conditioner, comfortable, many benches around the mats for parents and spectators to sit.

2) a lot of parking nearby. We never ever had issue getting a spot right at front of the door

3) flexible schedule of classes. Classes for kids of all levels offered daily

THE BEST ACADEMY IN THE WORLD. You'll be learning from top Black Belts in a clean and respectful environment, with good rolls and hard training. The Women's team is absolutely the best, lead by Angelica Galvao, Black Belt World Champion, with a wide variety of levels & sizes on the same mat, the atmosphere is positive, filled with encouragement & the best motivation to keep training hard while improving your jiu jitsu day by day. If you love jiu jitsu, this place will become your HAPPY PLACE.

I knew Atos was at the top of my list for places to visit and all of my expectations were met.

Everyone from the staff to students were very inclusive to a visitor, which is a lot more than gyms of a lesser caliber have been able to do. That brings up the talent level here: Professor Galvao has done a great job building a team and curriculum, and it's reflected in the skill level of everyone here. If you want to sharpen your fundamentals, this is the place to do it, because the technique is top notch.

The facilities are kept immaculate, and when you put it all together, I have zero hesitation

If we lived in SD my Hubs would probably train here! Staff are so very friendly. Professor Galvao is super personable and it was an honor to meet and conversate with him. We watched as they prepared for ADCC in their morning competition class. Walk ins are welcome but if wanting to jump in their competition class you need to check with staff for an invitation. It is pretty intense from watching. Nonstop for about 2 hours. Check website or call for dress code ahead of time. Parking is great. Watching is free and if you decide to roll if you check into Yelp you'll get a discount. Gym is very

I moved from San Francisco to San Diego in May 2015. I came from a Checkmat school that I had been training at for about a year and Atos was my first choice on the relocation to San Diego purely out of reputation.

The training atmosphere was much different than my experience in SF, and it was mostly for the better. Highly competitive, supportive, and the best day-to-day training I've ever experienced. Lots of higher belts on a daily basis and lots of train-cationers come through.

I usually split my week between gi and nogi classes, both are great training sessions. (Little more conditioning
