Mike is a phenomenal instructor. He is methodical, clear, intentional, and patient. He has high standards and wants to make sure all of his students are challenged to learn and grow. He knows how to make sure people feel comfortable asking questions while also pushing them past what they *think* they can do. My son always hears Mike tell him, “Don’t accept it!” on the mat, and he tries harder. I cannot recommend Mike and his teaching style enough. If you’re on the fence about trying jiu-jitsu, this review is your sign to dive in!

This is by far the best jiu jitsu instruction and community I’ve been a part of in the area. I joined around 4 months ago. Coming from a “big-name” gym in San Jose, Mikey’s personalized instruction was a breathe of fresh air. Mikey makes sure each student walks away from each class with a better understanding of how to integrate that days’ concepts to their game. Training is methodical and structured so that all students are safe at all times. 100% recommend checking out this gym, whether you’re a hobbyist or competitor.

I recently started doing jiu jitsu with no knowledge whatsoever. Coach Mike is tremendously knowledgeable and is very patient with first timers!! The gym is very clean and the other students are welcoming. Can’t wait to learn more!!!

I’ve rolled with all sorts of world-class athletes in this sport, including the top names… Mikey was incredibly tough and very talented… He is very skilled and I would recommend his Jiujitsu.

I recently had the pleasure of training at Mōst Dope Submission Grappling in Mountain View, CA, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Mikey, the standout athlete and head coach, truly embodies the core values of dedication, innovation, and relentless pursuit of excellence.

At Mōst Dope, they focus on the ever-evolving meta of modern competitive Jiu Jitsu, ensuring their athletes stay ahead of the game. I purchased a package of private instruction to improve my Jiu Jitsu ahead of ADCC, and Mikey’s ability to articulate complex movements and his attention to detail impressed me immediately.

If you’re looking to delve deeper into the sport, I highly recommend spending some time with Mikey at Mōst Dope. Their commitment to excellence and the quality of instruction is unparalleled.
