Was in town from NorCal and was recommended to check out this gym by a friend from mine. As one of their black belts had stopped to train at our a few months back.We stopped in on a Sunday morning and at the initial opening of the gym by the owner Stephen, my family and I greeted him and told him where we were from. He was very cordial and welcomed us, showed us around and pointed out the changing room for us.We were unaware it was no-gi but my son and I had brought that gear with us, while my girl didn't. She ultimately wasn't going to roll, but hoped she could buy a gym branded shirt to roll. And Stephen was nice enough to just give her one so she could still train.Everyone we met and rolled with were friendly and very welcoming; making our brief time here enjoyable.Overall: Very friendly and professional, and would stop in again if/when in the area again.

I signed up our five year old for a trial class to see how he would do. The coaches are great and I knew that we would continue his journey with BJJ. Since day 1 our son has shown significant improvement with his rolling, discipline, technique and overall confidence. I'm really impressed within the few short months he's been here at peerless how he improved. He was attending karate up the street, and although we did find some benefits, we found that BJJ was just better for him. You can bring you child literally everyday, I don't think I've seen anything in corona quite like that, GI and no GI classes available. Personally, my child enjoys the GI. I love how the coaches just show the kids that they cannot just mess around and need to learn respect. That's one thing I really appreciated during our time here. They always kept the kids in line. As a parent, thank you. Some parents don't like that, but these kids need that! Lastly, the kids always followed the directions of the coaches. Each day is something new. The first 30 minutes is a warm up, then the rest of the class is a new move they need to master and practicing with each other. It all depends. It's also clean and tidy. Overall, if you are looking for your child to learn how to protect themselves, learn something new, or overall just do something active, then 100% put them in BJJ.

Great place for kids! Honestly, the kids program here is the best I've experienced in a solid 30 mile radius. The coaches are extremely patient they teach great fundamentals and lessons. The lessons taught can correlate to both the sport and life, and it seems as though they all genuinely care about your kids growth and success. They will take the time to make the little corrections to their form as they do both the warm ups, and the actual practice, which helps the kids gain confidence as they continue to come and get better and better. Can't recommend this place enough, especially for kids (I think they start at age 4 on up but not sure)

We love Peerless, the coaching is top notch. We switched gyms almost a year ago and our daughter loves it here- she has improved her skills and met great friends along the way.

We looked far and wide for the right Jiujitsu Gym to fit our families needs. Transitioning to Peerless has been an amazing experience. Professor Stephen is a wonderful instructor with great knowledge and skills. All of his Blackbelt instructors are knowledgeable, skilled, and conscientious. The gym is family friendly with all levels of JiuJitsu practitioners, from MMA fighters to hobbyists. Myself, my husband and two sons love the environment, the training partners, and the techniques being taught. We look forward to many more training sessions for years to come at Peerless.

After checking out a few gyms and training at a couple gyms, Peerless stood out and became my home gym for a multitude of reasons. Being a beginner I was welcomed not just by Stephen but by everyone there. Peerless has an amazing community which truly makes this place unique. Coach Stephen and Anthony do a fantastic job spending time with you helping you progress. They're very thorough and detailed with their instructions and set you up for nothing but success. If you're contemplating on checking this place out, whether you're new or a veteran this gym has something to offer.

I've been with Professor Stephen for 4 years now, and I still look forward to coming to practice. Stephen made it possible for my family to train with me all these years at Peerless, and I appreciate that to the end.
