I was in town for a few weeks for work and quickly found out that Unum Jiu Jitsu is the best plan to train in Ridgecrest! Coach Cory and his team were incredibly welcoming from day one. Great vibes, great coaches, and great training partners. I highly recommend Unum Jiu Jitsu!
Posted 1 year agoCoach Cory is incredibly knowledgeable, accessible, and detail-oriented in his instruction. What sets this place apart is the principle-based coaching, which is something I rarely get at the big corporate gym I train at. Cory’s teaching style breaks down the “why” behind the moves. The environment is always welcoming, and the people here bring great vibes—supportive, respectful, and genuinely accepting.
Posted 1 year agoQuite simply the best gym in town. I was in town for three months because of work and whoever trains Jiu Jitsu knows you simply can't go 3 months without rolling. I showed up to the gym on my second day in town and was welcomed with open arm by Coach Cory and his wife. This gym was truly like a second home for me and i hope to be able to come back some day. I left with a ton of knowledge, a newly found appreciation for the GI coming from a mostly NoGi background and more importantly ive made friends along the way.
Posted 1 year agoI have such an amazing time in this place . The people in the school have such a great vibe. Good space for rolls and training. I really enjoyed my time here at Unum . Cory the head coach gave us a really good class with details that help to develop our game. Top level class . Thank a lot to the whole family of Unum . There’s good level of jiu jitsu . For sure you will have good rolls if you go visit or sign up . Oooossss
I travel a lot and find myself dropping in to train at a number of different places. I was delightfully surprised to see such a quality gym with such a large membership in Ridgecrest. The facilities are excellent. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. The jiu jitsu is top notch. There is a heavy emphasis on sparring, making the little detour especially worthwhile for the travelling martial artist who probably won't internalize the move of the day in one session. If I lived a little closer, I'd come here more often.
I am out of town for work and was looking to get a training session in. As soon as I walked in I knew I was in the right place. Cory let me jump right in his class and treated me like family. The facility is big with tall ceilings and a large matt area. I enjoyed their playlist of music. The music was explicit, which is something to take into consideration if you are taking your kids here. They train hard at this gym and I won’t be suppressed when they continue to win tournaments. I am from Morumbi Jiu Jitsu in Ventura California, but anytime I am visiting from out of town I will absolutely be stopping by to train!
My husband and son have been going here for almost 2 years. They absolutely love it. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the adults/kids who train here are wonderful! It’s a great place to get your kids involved in an after-school sport. Highly recommend Unum:)
Signed up in July dropped 45 pounds and get to hangout with some great people
My family has trained here for years! Awesome team, excellent coaches, and a very family friendly environment. It doesn’t matter if you are training just to get in shape, or if you are a serious competitor. Classes range from fundamentals to advanced technique. The facility is very clean, and they have an awesome kids program!
I started with Unum a couple of years ago and it is now my home away from home. The gym is awesome, people are great, and the training is second to none. Something for your whole family. Kids classes, women’s classes, advanced classes, and comp classes. If you, your family and friends are looking to get into shape and or learn a great self defense then I highly urge you to try Unum Jiu Jisu!
Greatest place in Ridgecrest
If at first your worried about you kid going here don't be! The instructors are vigilant watching over the kids while training the owner really makes them all feel like a family and treats them as one. Overall 10 out of 5 stars can't wait for my other son to be old enough to join.
Such a great atmosphere to learn in and make yourself better! Couldn't ask for a better place to learn a new life skill that truly affects all aspects of your life in a very positive way! Highly recommend giving this place a shot if you're looking to learn JiuJitsu.
Great Gym with adult and kids program. One of the most important things to me in a gym is the culture of the gym. This gym is family oriented, the people are friendly, and helpful. There is absolutely friendly competition, but the overall feeling is supportive. The people here, both students and instructors want you to be successful and are always willing to help improve technique or give you pointers here and there.
We have had wonderful experience with this Jiu Jitsu and would recommend it to anyone! When you enter the doors you become like family.
My son enjoys learning at Unum Jiu Jitsu. The staff and instructors take time to teach and coach the fundamental skills. The staff are welcoming and helpful. If you're looking for an activity for your kids I highly recommend Unum Jiu Jitsu.
In early 2019 Blacksmith Jiu Jitsu became Unum Jiu Jitsu, and I’ve been attending since the swap! It’s an awesome atmosphere, built around humility and a drive to learn and improve. Stop in any weeknight to see what it’s about!
When I first visited Unum Jiu Jitsu, I was impressed by the number of people getting to spar and learn with each other. I felt like I could engage with people and safely roll. When I tried my first session with them, I was able to explain how I have Epilepsy and what to do should I have a seizure. Everyone was very understanding, and it made me more comfortable when rolling. That comfort was recently dashed on the ground. I ended up PERMANENTLY contracting a highly transmittable rash (H. Gladiatorum). I was able to narrow down how I contracted it, who I may have gotten it from at the studio, and felt it was my responsibility to tell the coach when I had symptoms start showing. When I tried to inform the head instructor, I assumed that he would know what it is and provide me with some sense of security about it all. Instead, he told me he had "never heard of it before" and that "you couldn't have gotten it here". I felt completely blown off and bewildered that someone invested in a sport so much that they'd open a studio for it has no idea what it is until his student tries explaining it. There are children rolling at this studio. If there is a chance that someone gave me this rash while practicing, there's a chance that it spreads to them. It's a risk of the sport, but there was a disturbing lack of understanding what this was from the person in charge. If you're a parent; ask yourself if you want to risk your child randomly getting blisters on any part of their body for the rest of their life, and if you feel safe leaving them in the hands of someone who doesn't know what that rash is. If you're just starting out or wanna see what Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is, ask yourself if you want to risk getting a strain of HSV-1 from your free trial lesson. I wanted to like Unum, and for a while I did. The sport has a great community, and I feel like I had to leave the one I started to create with others. My trust was breached. Don't let yours be either
