Triunfo Jiu Jitsu & MMA

Triunfo is the best!!! Felipe is an awesome instructor. The whole class was so welcoming and helpful my first day. I can’t wait to try their Muy Thai class next.

Best jiu Jitsu school in the town, Felipe is a amazing athlete and trainer, one of the nicest and technical Jiu Jitsu fighter I ever met, and that is coming from another black belt

My boyfriend and I were doing trials at some jujitsu gyms close to our house. We finally decided signing up this jiujutsu gym. People are always kind and friendly. Felipe is always welcoming and a great teacher. I’m a beginner, everyone always helps me so much. Also I love Saturday women’s class! The teacher Dane and Terri are great teachers and really fun class. All classes helps me a lot!

I came here for open mats for over two years. Felipe was always very welcoming and friendly even though I was not an actual student. I was a student at gym nearby but had some friends that train there. I am now a student at Triunfo, the classes are bar none, I get a phenomenal workout and learn great technique. The people are welcoming and Felipe is a great coach.

This place is AMAZING. I started in Oct. 2014 and can’t stop! I look forward to working out, it no longer feels like a chore. Everyone at the gym is one big family. When I miss a day, teammates check in to see if everything is ok. Where else can you find that type of camaraderie?! Being a woman, I don’t feel out of place in a male dominant sport. Everyone supports and encourages you to do your very best! Come try it out– promise you won’t regret!

Can’t say enough good things about Triunfo. I started training here in August 2015 (both BJJ and Muay Thai) as a complete newbie. My biggest worry was what the environment would be like. Mostly, I was afraid that I would feel totally awkward, out of place, and unwelcome. I’m embarrassed to admit it, but I thought that the more advanced students would be total meatheads and complete jerks. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Everyone was warm and friendly, from the most experienced students to the beginners, and more than happy to share tips and advice on technique. I know it has been said multiple times on these Unilocal reviews, but Triunfo is truly a family. You can see it in the way everyone greets, supports, and encourages one another.
This is a reflection of the two coaches I’ve trained under, Felipe (BJJ) and Pat (Muay Thai). Both Felipe and Pat are knowledgeable, humble, and treat people with care and respect. All their students get the same level of attention, whether you have been coming to Triunfo for years, are preparing for your pro/​am fight, or you just started two weeks ago.
If you have wanted to try out BJJ or Muay Thai but have been hesitant out of fear of awkwardness or bad vibes, you need to check out Triunfo. Felipe and Pat have created a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere where people train extremely hard, but also have tons of fun. Stop reading these Unilocal reviews and swing by for your free trial week of classes!

This is my happy place. Felipe is the best teacher ever. He is brilliant, positive, without ego, generous, loving, fun, as well as an accomplished mma fighter. I have tried other gyms; the instruction and vibe don’t even compare. I read the reviews of the «family atmosphere,» but I never could have imagined how warm and welcoming Triunfo actually is. When you have someone at the top who is as killer and low ego as Felipe, the gym is filled with other loving, awesome, top notch people. You owe it to yourself to try it. Everyone will be so nice and awesome; you’ll be so glad you came.

It doesn’t get much better than Triunfo.
I’m originally from Colorado and moved out here in 2013. I’ve trained Mixed Martial Arts for about 10 years and spent my entire training career at the same gym growing up. Needless to say, it was tough to find a place that felt like home for me. I spent half a year training and dropping into tons of different gyms all over Southern California. Easily 30+ gyms.
First day I trained at Triunfo, my mind was made up. Not only head coach Felipe Fogolin but absolutely everyone at this gym was more than welcoming of me. It was that home town family feeling of togetherness this gym had that made the decision easy. Weather you’re a 20 year vet in the sport or a day one grappler, everyone was treated with love and respect.
Aside from a great group of people here, there is an unlimited amount of knowledge this gym as to offer. If you’re into Muay Thai, MMA, Boxing, Kick Boxing, Judo, Jiu Jitsu etc, this gym covers it all. However, if you’re interested in Jiu Jitsu in even the slightest bit, there is hands down nobody better to learn from than Professor Felipe Fogolin.
I highly recommend this gym to anyone and everyone!

Triunfo has been my home since 2011 when Felipe first opened up the gym on 17^th street. Felipe is the best, he took my brother and I in after meeting us and let us train under him ever since, it’s a blessing what this guy brings to MMA and how he can make you feel. Felipe will not only be your coach… But will also be your friend at any time you need. I go off and on since 2013 and have just started back up there since my uncle became a brown belt under Felipe… Truly and amazing gym for all type and all families to train almost any type of martial art, please come join the TRIUNFO FAMILY! Felipe is a world class in MMA!

Still amazing after four months now. I’m so grateful and blessed to be training with such a great group of people who are becoming more and more family each day.

I had a really great experience here as guest over the weekend.
The facilities are neat, clean and easy to understand where to go. Parking is great and it’s right off the 73 freeway so location is top notch.
The instruction was very detailed, and everyone from the top down was warm and inviting. Happy to greet newcomers and long time members with the same smile.
I will def be coming back when I travel out to CA again to train with these great people at a top notch school!

This my second home now. Pat teaches an awesome fundamentals and coach Tyler’s advance class is amazing! Tried juijitsu for the first time last week and feel in love with it! Felipe is an amazing coach!

I’ve been bringing young children here. 4 and 6 years old. I wasn’t sure the instructor could keep the young kids interested. He has a way of keeping the training fun and interesting. Highly recommend this studio to anyone. Not too difficult for any age!

Professor Felipe and Coach Pat are great people… professionals with heart. The gym enviroment is intense, but friendly. The instruction is detailed and good form/​technique is encouraged every step of the way. Bad habits and poor form/​technique don’t stand a chance! ;)
I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to translating verbal instruction into physical movement, but coach Pat (Muay Thai) is steadfast and patient with me.
As for BJJ, I arrived early one day during the kid’s class. It was so fun to watch, because Professor Felipe is so good with kids and they were having a blast.
Anyone, regardless of your experience or lack thereof (like me) with these sports, who are interested in experiencing BJJ or Muay Thai should checkout Triunfo Jiu Jitsu and MAA. It continues to be a great experience. Thank you, Richard.

Oh man the great things I can say about this place! I am beyond blessed to have found such a perfect fit for me.
They have everything I’m looking for!
World Class instruction in Jiu Jitsu/​Judo/​Muay Thai/​MMA.
They have the experience and knowledge, as well as the heart and team building spirit I didn’t even know I needed!
Martial arts is a vehicle for developing your human potential and there is no on else I would trust with such a feat!
I owe them much more than I can offer.

Triunfo is more than just a gym this is a place I consider home, it’s where I can can escape and be free. The energy is amazing nothing but love and positivity. This is a place you will meet life long friends who you can always depend on. Everyone is like family, we push each other to get better and achieve our goals. The coaching is world class, prefect for all levels, doesn’t matter if you have a absolutely zero Martial arts experience or you’re a UFC pro you will without a doubt learn something new and grow. The gym is new, only a few months old, very very clean, great equipment. The kids program is excellent. Kids will definitely gain confidence, self defense and learn life long lessons that will only benefit them later in life. Come check it out, it will only change your life for the best.

I’m not new to Brazilian Jiu Jitsu by a long shot. I’ve trained at several school (literally) throughout the world. Triunfo and Felipe Fogolin has Jiu Jitsu that will rival any place or instructor any where — period. Felipe pulls this school ahead of the pack with his dedication to combat sports and his attitude toward learning, which is «never stop». He actively seeks and encourages his students to seek the latest and greatest techniques then proceeds to learn and refine those techniques. He doesn’t stake territory or stumble over vanity.
TL;DR: Come here to train and improve in an environment and with a professor utterly dedicated to training and improving

The best jiu-​jitsu and MMA gym around. I passed by it for months before going in and I’m really glad I did. I had always wanted to learn a martial art but I put it off year after year.
Jiujitsu has a really cool community of people and everybody has been incredibally helpful throughout my training.
This is a full service gym that teaches several martial arts. I even had the chance to compete in a muay-​thai match after training in it for over a year.
Such a cool place. It’s like summer camp for adults.

One word to describe this place, RESPECT. White blue purple brown black belts it doesn’t matter this gym is color blind. Everyone gets treated with respect. No tough guy egos .
The head coach:
owner of the establishment is Felipe Fogolin. There’s a lot of good men out there but there’s always one that stands out from the others. I’m proud to say I’m coached by that one outstanding gentlemen. No aggressive attitude, no bleed or die mentality. No, Felipe goes out of his way to make sure you’re comfortable, learning and doesn’t have a problem going over things he just taught. If you really want to get the full effect of Felipe, Roll with him :). His words of encouragement and motivation is something that sinks in deep. You’ll always leave Felipe’s gym knowing you have friend who’s waiting for you to come back.
Now for the gym:
Talk about cleanliness. Bring your food to mats and eat off it ! Lol ok don’t do that but you get the idea. The gym believes in a higher standard of hygiene. Not just sweeping the mats but wiping down EVERYTHING with an anti fungal and anti bacteria liquid to prevent any kind of bad stuff laying around .
What do you have to lose besides a few thousand calories? See you guys there !!
R.C.

Triunfo Jiu Jitsu & MMA has top notch teaching from the ground game to the stand up game. The facility has a large mat space, very well-​maintained, and clean.
The jiu jitsu program is very well structured and organized. Professor Felipe is an amazing instructor. He takes time to break down complicated techniques so that you can understand it. I really enjoy that he teaches judo and takedown techniques too. The training partners and team are awesome. It has a friendly, positive and motivating atmosphere. At the same time, the team will help challenge and push you to excel toward your goals.
