From Garage to Greatness

Where to Find Us

2031 Main St. Oakley, CA 94561

Coach Mark has shared his passion for jiu jitsu all across the Bay Area, teaching at respected academies like Six Blades Oakland, Gracie Fighter Brentwood, Tapout Fitness in Alameda, and 610 Academy in Richmond. Now, he’s brought that experience home—right here to Oakley, CA. Come train with us at our new location: 2031 Main Street.

You’re welcome to come by for a trial class, meet our tribe, and see firsthand what makes our training different.

What makes Growth Mindset Collective different isn’t just the setting — it’s the experience.

We keep our classes small on purpose. Every student is known, coached, and challenged at their level. Our training culture is built around respect, presence, and progress — values that matter more than belts or medals.

You’re not just joining a gym. You’re joining a movement where character development and martial arts go hand in hand.

Mark & Sabrina — Coming Home to Make a Difference

Meet Your Coaches

Head Jiu Jitsu Coach

Mark immersed himself in high-level jiu jitsu in Richmond, Oakland, and Berkeley. He earned his black belt under 5-time world champion Eduardo Rocha and spent over two decades honing his skills on and off the mats.

Homeschool Program Director

Sabrina pursued a Master’s Degree in Kinesiology and became a collegiate-level teacher in health, wellness, and movement. Her passion for holistic living and education now shapes everything we do at Growth Mindset Collective.

We’re Coach Mark and Coach Sabrina — and this is our hometown. We both grew up in Oakley, CA, before heading to the Bay Area to chase growth in our respective fields.  After years of developing ourselves, we chose to come back to Oakley to raise and homeschool our own kids, and to build something meaningful for families in this community.

That’s what Growth Mindset Collective is all about: homegrown training with world-class intention.
