Three free classes across the morning for kids, teens and adults, our Official Ribbon Cutting Ceremony, then food from our neighbors in the plaza, music, and a prize drawing before we close at one. Come train, come eat, or just come look around.
Free · Ages 4 and up · No experience neededCome stand in the photo. We're cutting the ribbon on Foster City's newest jiu jitsu academy, and we'd like the neighborhood in the picture when we do it. Food goes out right after.
Ceremony time announced soonThese are our normal Saturday class times, so what you see that morning is exactly what a regular week looks like here. Every class is free and open to anyone who walks in.
Come for one class or stay the whole morning. Open mat runs between sessions, so there's always something happening on the floor. Wear comfortable athletic clothes and bring a water bottle. We handle the rest.
Three classes across the morning covering every age group, taught the way we teach them every week. Total beginners are the whole point. No uniform needed, no signing up for anything.
Our Official Ribbon Cutting Ceremony with the Foster City Chamber of Commerce, followed by food catered from the restaurants right here in Edgewater Plaza. We'll post the exact ceremony time on this page once it's locked in.
Three free months of membership, private lessons, gear and gift cards from our plaza neighbors. Everyone who walks in gets an entry. Book a free class that day and you get three more.
Matt and Raf will both be on the mat the whole time, along with the family. Bring your questions, about jiu jitsu, about your kid, about whether your knees can handle it.
Book a free class on or before Saturday September 5 and we'll hold the Founding 50 rate for you through September 10, even if you're away for the long weekend. We don't sell memberships online. Everyone takes a free class first, then we sort out the paperwork in person.
These are real classes, not a demo. Kids warm up with games and learn their first techniques at kid pace. Parents can watch from the lobby or get on the mat themselves.
Adults, you will not be the only beginner in the room and nobody is going to try to hurt you. Wear a t-shirt and shorts or leggings. That's the entire dress code.
Nothing costs anything that day and we won't chase you around the room. Take a class, eat some pizza, look at the mats, decide later.
There's good jiu jitsu all over this peninsula. The difference here is that it's five minutes from your house, in the plaza you already shop in, so you'll actually keep going.
Right next to Osaka Market in Edgewater Plaza, across the street from Foster City Elementary. Free plaza parking, and more of it on the far side by the market.
Open in MapsYou can absolutely just show up. But telling us you're coming means we hold a spot in the class you want, and we know how much food to order.
