Norwalk is a mostly residential city of mid-century ranch homes and quiet grid streets in southeast Los Angeles County, tucked where the 5, the 605, the 105, and the 91 all meet. That freeway access is exactly why the drive to Fullerton is so easy — whether you're near Cerritos College, the Studebaker neighborhood, or the neon-signed Norwalk Town Square, you're only a few exits up the road from our mats on Euclid St.
We see members make the trip from all corners of the 90650 — commuters who park near the Metro C Line station, parents dropping in after picking up at school, and shift workers who like that we run classes morning and evening. From the Civic Center or the Hargitt House Museum area off Mapledale, it's a straight shot southeast on the 5 to Fullerton. Quick enough that training after work in Norwalk never feels like a chore.
Your first class is free — come try it before you decide anything. Because every class is no-gi, there's no gi to buy; just wear comfortable workout clothes and bring water. And one simple membership covers every class on the schedule, so you're never paying extra to add the program that fits your goals. No hidden fees, no guesswork.
We welcome neighbors from all around Norwalk, including Santa Fe Springs just to the north, Cerritos right across the college campus, and La Mirada to the east. Wherever you're starting from, you're a short drive to the closest 10th Planet no-gi room.
