Our Philosophy

The goal of The Training Center is to enrich the community’s participation in martial arts by providing an environment for anyone to improve their fitness, mentality, or skills.

Training in any sport can be challenging, especially in the marital arts world. However, there’s a difference between a challenge and a negative environment. The Training Center is intended to be a challenging but fair environment, where people of all ages and abilities can explore their capabilities. No matter how old you are or what experience you have, there is a class or trainer for you at The Training Center.

Baret yoshida

Lead Jiu-Jitsu Coach

Master Baret Yoshida has been at the top of the jiu jitsu world for decades. His powerful “never say die” attitude allowed him to develop his signature submissions, today known as Baret Submissions.

Baret Submissions are headquartered here at The Training Center, making it one of the few places you can learn these powerful techniques and the only place where you can learn them from the master. No other jiu jitsu school in San Diego offers the same one-on-one learning with such a skilled teacher.
