Rivalry Jiu Jitsu is hands down one of the best academies I’ve ever trained at! Victor, the owner, is not only an incredible instructor but also an active competitor, which adds so much value to the training environment. His firsthand experience on the competition mats translates into high-level techniques and practical advice that’s incredibly effective. What really sets Rivalry apart is the vibe Victor has created. The atmosphere is welcoming, yet you can feel the passion and drive in everyone who trains here. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned practitioner, there’s a place for you in this community. Victor's ability to balance intense training sessions with a supportive environment is unmatched. If you’re looking for a place to learn, grow, and challenge yourself in jiu-jitsu, Rivalry Jiu Jitsu is it. Highly recommend checking it out! 👊🔥has truly cr
If you're looking for a jiu-jitsu gym that feels like family, where you can get choked out by people who actually like you, then Rivalry is the place to be. My kids train here, I train here, and at this point, if my dog could do an armbar, he'd probably be signed up too. Coach Vic is the fearless leader of our squad, keeping my kids in check while also making sure I don’t embarrass myself too much on the mats. Everyone at Rivalry is all about getting better—no egos, no nonsense, just hard work and great vibes. The savages who train here push you, support you, and sometimes crush you in the most respectful way possible. It’s the ultimate "iron sharpens iron" environment, which is a fancy way of saying you will leave every class sore but smarter. If you want to learn jiu-jitsu, get in shape, and have a blast doing it, Rivalry is the place to be. Five stars, two tired kids, and one exhausted dad. Did I mention the gym is basically an art g
Excellent Jiu Jitsu academy. I have trained here for a number of years. Here is what sets Rivalry apart from many other schools/academies in my humble opinion: family owned and operated with a welcoming and friendly environment, the owner teaching the majority of the classes (qualified higher ranking belts teaching in his rare absence), great instruction with instructors that travel to train and stay up to date on the latest changes in Jiu Jitsu, competition training for those wanting competitions (but not mandatory), clean facility with showers.
Great gym! My husband, young son and myself all train. We have been apart of this gym for 6 years now. Coach Victor has created a perfect environment to train and grow and the proof is in the retention of the gym members. Many different opportunities to train during the week to meet your schedule. BegInners, Intermediate and Comp class available. Clean gym, separate men and women locker room with showers, elevated mat and something you will also notice is the amount of women that train here, which speaks volumes. 100% family friendly. A safe environment BUT definitely with a competitive edge!! If you’re thinking of starting this sport then this is where you want to be.
My kids have been doing BJJ for over a year and we recently switched to Rivalry because they needed more structure. My husband and I are beyond impressed with the kids competition class and regular class. Victor is a great professor and even keeps track of points for the kids when they roll which motivates those who love to compete. Since joining, my kids have been so excited everyday to go to class and even more excited for their next competition! Everybody there has been so kind and welcoming. Thank you guys for providing such a great place for my whole family to train.
Today I visited Rivalry Jiu-Jitsu in Fresno, California, during a weekend work trip, and it was an excellent experience! I checked their schedule online and decided to drop in for a class. From the moment I arrived, Coach Victor and the team were extremely friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere was very inviting, and everyone went out of their way to make me feel at home. The gym itself is clean and well-maintained, with spacious locker rooms that add to the overall comfort. They offer both Gi and no-Gi classes, including intermediate fundamentals, making it a great place for practitioners of all levels. If you’re local to Fresno, this is a gym you should absolutely check out. And if you’re just visiting like I was and want a great workout while you’re in town, Rivalry Jiu-Jitsu is the place to go. Highly recommended!
