Hardy gym with real fighters and training. Trainers have an experienced eye with things. I was pulled aside individually and told all of my flaws in stance etc. this shocked me because it was very generous and also it showed they care, this is as someone who drops in every few months so for that I give five stars

Best gym for Muay Thai in SF imo. The fight team has a solid stack of savages if you want to compete and really push yourself. But at the same time everyone's friendly and welcoming. Coaching vibe is friendly, chill, no-ego and they let everyone can go at their own pace. Def recommend regardless of skill level. Good mix of beginners & experienced classes.

Been going to rise for over a year now. Love the coaching staff and people. They're helpful, funny, knowledgeable and willing to take you as far as they can based on the work you put in. Built a second family through Muay Thai

I had the privilege of training at this BJJ gym for 5 months before I relocated, and I can't say enough positive things about my experience. Marcos Yunes, an instructor with a solid background from Ralph Gracie, leads the classes. One of the standout features of this gym is the well-balanced mix of gi and no-gi classes, catering to a variety of preferences. They offer beginner-focused classes where fundamental techniques are emphasized, as well as a competition focused class on Wednesdays. There isn’t an excessive amount of time spent on warm-ups which I really appreciate. Finding parking is easy which was the reason I initially chose this gym. What I appreciated most was the inclusive atmosphere with a diverse group of practitioners, including white belts and upper belts. Marcos adapts the class content to the attendees and their skill levels, ensuring that everyone gets valuable training. Marcos also takes extra care with new beginners, often setting them aside and providing them with a solid foundation in basic fundamentals. Hygiene is a top priority here, with mats cleaned before every session. Additionally, the presence of a spacious changing room, a rare find in the city, and the option to rent lockers for a nominal fee enhance the overall gym experience. Overall, I can confidently give this gym a well-deserved 5-star rating. It's a fantastic place to train and grow in your BJJ journey, with excellent instruction, diverse class offerings, and a commitment to cleanliness and convenience. I will come back and train as a guest whenever I’m in SF!
