I have been training martial arts half my life, and Checkmat Buena Park is one of the most authentic jiujitsu schools around.I have been here 5 years and the team has become a family to me. Professor Robynho is a 4° Black Belt from Brazil and has amazing knowledge and skills as a practitioner and most importantly as a coach. He puts his heart and soul into teaching his students, and it really shows.The culture at the gym is great vibes and hard training. They offer beginner classes, early morning classes, nogi, as well as girls only and kids jiujitsu. Come check it out and visit us on the mats!!
