I found the gym through one of its managers who encouraged me to join. He insisted that they approach both the boxing and jujitsu from a more engaging perspective helping students focus on both technique and cardio. Since attending classes, I have had immense appreciation for this approach. The instructors helped me far more than any previous boxing or jujitsu experience in shaping my understanding of the respective sports. This attention to detail along with the workout has made me appreciate how little I knew coming in. I highly recommend the gym to anyone looking to enter or improve their boxing and jujitsu skills.

I’ve been training here for the past month. As a newcomer to boxing and jiu jitsu, the environment at Guardian is extremely welcoming. Classes are open to a variety of skill levels and provide not only an excellent workout, but one that is based in solid fundamentals. Training here has become a highlight of my week. The gym is two blocks from the 19th St Oakland BART station and I’ve always been able to find street parking within a block of the gym. Gym memberships help support free classes for kids, which just adds to the great feeling you get from training here.

I totally agree with every single review here! I can honestly say that there is nothing bad about this place, its members nor trainers. They offer a very flexible schedule and the trainers put great emphazise on each individual. Since its a new gym, it is perfect for beginners and rookies. Everyone is commited and trying to form a great community that spends time together outside of training as well. For example UFC gatherings. If you are looking to work hard, leave all you got in the gym and be greatly rewarded with quality time and athletic achievements I highly recommend checking this place out. The trainers cant wait to meet you and help you get there. Come hang out with us!

I have been training at the gym a few times and for boxing and Brazilian jiu-jitsu training and the only thing i have to say is that I LOVE it, and I’m not the only one, many friends from college are also going and loving the place! The teachers are awesome, and we have a lot of hard training but we also have so much fun! Plus, these guys decided to become Guardian not just a simple gym, but a place where children can practice martial arts for free, what make of them not just a simple gym, but something more.

Guardian provides an excellent environment to learn new skills and get a great workout. Having been to other boxing gyms in the past, there can be somewhat of an intimidation factor for new members. This is not the case with Guardian who have done a great job of creating an inclusive and encouraging atmosphere from day one. I’m looking forward to many more classes with them.

I’ve been to Guardian now a few times since it’s opened, and plan to keep going back. The trainers are amazing, and it’s obviously for a great cause. I’d never boxed before this, but they do a great job coaching and training to any skill level. After two classes there, I’ve already cancelled my other gym membership. Great workout, great people, awesome project.
