IF I COULD I WOULD GIVE IT 6 STARS Such a great place, friendly staff, great coaches. I have two boys, 7 and 4, who started going there and they absolutely love it. Coaches are patient and very tentative to the kids. They always have a lot of fun time, great learning experience, and building their confidence. They also have classes for adults, which I am looking forward to. Definitely recommend it!

My kids and I have been training at Primal Grounds Jiu Jitsu for about 7 months, and it has been an incredible experience. My 7-year-old son and 5-year-old daughter are enrolled in the kids’ classes, and they absolutely love it. I’ve seen their confidence grow tremendously, thanks to the supportive and attentive coaches. The instructors are patient and create a fun, encouraging environment that allows the kids to feel comfortable and learn quickly. The gym fosters a warm, family-oriented atmosphere where everyone is welcoming and supportive. I began my Jiu Jitsu journey at 35, and my only regret is not starting sooner. The quality of coaching, sense of community, and overall experience have been outstanding. I highly recommend Primal Grounds Jiu Jitsu to anyone, regardless of age or skill level, who is looking to build confidence, learn a valuable skill, and be part of a great community.

I've been training at Primal Grounds for about 6 months and it's been a great experience. The atmosphere is friendly, and the instructor does a great job of teaching clear, structured classes. They also revisit lessons from previous months to help reinforce techniques so skills aren’t lost over time. This makes it a solid option for all skill levels, from beginners to more advanced students. The facility has new equipment and a great layout. Highly recommended for no gi jiu jitsu training.

Awesome place to train! Came in for an open mat a few months ago and had a great time. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly. After just a couple of times training here I knew this was the gym for me. I would highly recommend checking out Primal Grounds! They even have mid day classes which is a huge plus.

I started here after a couple years of experience at a previous gym (moved for jobs). Dom is a great coach who will always answer questions and teach a variety of techniques. The gym atmosphere is great, great rolls, lots of camaraderie.

My boys been coming to Primal for about 3-4 months now. It's been amazing to watch how the coach’s are attentive to each kid no matter their experience. They welcome everyone (adults and kids) with open arms. These coach’s have everyone’s best interest at heart, they love this sport and only want to share their knowledge with each of you. I have seen my son grow not only in jiu-jitsu but also as a young man. He’s gain so much confidence. The kids class is growing from when we first started, so spread the word and bring your kids down to train 👊🏼🤙🏼

This review is long overdue but as a first timer in martial arts with no other experience or knowledge I wanted to wait a few months. Now being 40 with no experience it can be very intimidating walking into a place for the first time. Not here! From the second I walked in there was just such an amazing group of ppl running and teaching the place, the vibe was something I’ve never imagined a jiujitsu gym would be. Dom is an amazing instructor for any level of skill and experience. He is patient, very knowledgeable, and makes the learning process fun and enjoyable. Due to this gym I will be a lifer in jiujitsu! I have done drop ins at other gyms and not one matches Primal Grounds. Not only does it offer jiujitsu but also striking classes, gym equipment for weight training, heavy bags, and bikes. They have a space for my kids to hang out at to do homework or even just relax on the couch and watch their favorite shows. This is the place to be!

Everyone treats each other with respect and the trainers are well knowledgeable. What I like most is that it doesn’t matter if you have experience or not they’re willing to climb through the ropes with you. I started with barely any fighting experience and I’m still having a good time. I highly recommend this place to anyone who’s a beginner or experienced, you definitely learn a lot.

I have been training at primal grounds for 2 mouths now and it’s has been a great experience, I have learned a lot of self defense with the jiu Jitsu and the striking class. The community is super great everyone is respectful and kind. The coaches are excellent they teach the classes well and they work at your own pace.

This is a great place to learn grappling with a good variety of people, big and small, old and young. Teachers are excellent and qualified. The place is clean and kid-friendly. Kids Jiu Jitsu classes are right before the adult classes, which is very convenient.

Dom is excellent at teaching the fine points of BJJ techniques. He knows everyone's name and after a short time will also be able to focus you on areas of improvement!

I cannot recommend Primal Grounds enough, I literally tell everyone about how awesome it is! I was referred to this Jiu Jitsu gym because my five year old son was struggling with the transition to school because he is so hyper. We tried multiple sports and this is the first time he’s participated and connected with coaches. The kids classes are 4 days a week and my son wants to go everyday, he has so much fun. The coaches are very patient and kind and very knowledgeable. You can tell they care about anyone who walks into the gym. The gym setting is also very clean and aesthetically pleasing. Just an overall good vibe. I even want to try a class soon! The membership is also very affordable!

I’ve been training here for 6 months. I do not have enough good things to say about this gym! The staff and the attendees are all incredibly kind and welcoming, as well as talented and serious. In the past 6 months I have seen myself grow not only in my jiu jitsu but also as a person. If you’re considering coming to a class do not hesitate. Come on down and train!

Love this spot. I’ve trained off and on for about 10 years and it’s easy to be consistent here since the classes are so engaging. Dom, the head coach, is a great teacher helping us with the latest moves while making sure our fundamentals are solid. It’s great to have a black belt and active competitor constantly checking to make sure everyone in the room understands. The live-rolls at the end are great. There are often multiple black belts in the room, along with many other skill levels - all respectful and there to get better.

I’ve been here for about a month and I have to say it is amazing. I’ve made close friends and some good Rivals coach, Dom and Andre are the nicest people in the world. They’re not like traditional gyms where you have to treat them like gods or anything like that they’re just normal guys who loves Jujitsu and know how to do it Recommend this gym, If you love. No gi jujitsu

I can not speak highly enough of Primal Grounds, regardless of your age, gender, or if you've been training in BJJ for years or never trained at all and want a great BJJ experience this is the gym for you. The facility is clean and well kept, and you couldn't ask for a better more skilled instructor then Dom, always patient, encouraging, and truly wants you to improve and be your best. Along with instruction and tips from Andre you are guaranteed to improve, great bunch of guys and girls to train with.

Highly recommend Primal Grounds! This is a fantastic gym!! By far the best facility around. Andre and Dominic are super friendly and great at what they do! I really like how they give me tips and tricks to get the most out it! Everything is so clean, and Dominic as the coach, closely watches and corrects everyone! Great mix of Jiu Jitsu and traditional gym equipment. They are reasonably priced as well which is a bonus!! Primal grounds is my 2nd family and I would not hesitate to recommend this gym to anyone!

The coaching at Primal Grounds gym is exceptional. The instructors are highly skilled, patient, and dedicated to helping each student reach their full potential. They provide clear and detailed explanations, ensuring everyone understands the techniques. The personalized attention and constructive feedback create a supportive learning environment. Whether you're a beginner or advanced practitioner, you'll find the coaching here invaluable. I've seen significant improvement in my skills since joining, and I attribute it largely to their outstanding coaching.

Unquestionably, a 5/5 star Jiu Jitsu gym. I would rate it a 10 if I could. Hands down, EXCELLENT coaching. Dom and the other coaches are patient, incredibly kind, and detail oriented. Not only do you get superior coaching by world class coaches, but they also have brand new Rogue-brand workout equipment. This Jiu Jitsu gym is a gem unlikely to be replicated in the entire Sacramento area. Get down to Primal Grounds and start your Jiu Jitsu journey!

Just what Roseville needed!!! This is a family friendly environment. I stopped in today for weight training while my grandson trained BJJ. Great place for parents to bring their kids and create a legacy of sport training. Bring your sons and daughters!! The class kept the kids engaged and they all had fun!
