10th Planet Columbus

My kids have been doing jiu-jitsu for years, and in just their first few months with Coach Zach they learned more—and more advanced techniques—than they had the entire time before. The progress has been incredible to watch. Even better, they genuinely want to go to class and look forward to training five days a week because they love it so much. Coach Zach teaches more than just jiu-jitsu. My kids have learned patience, toughness, confidence, and so many other life lessons that carry over into everyday situations. His ability to connect with students and push them to grow is truly special. Whether your child is shy, energetic, loud, unsure of themselves, or full of confidence, Coach Zach meets them exactly where they are. He brings out the best in every type of kid and creates an environment where all students feel supported, capable, and excited to learn. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend training here.

We were traveling and my 9 year old wanted to check out another 10th planet. I reached out to Zack and he was not only prompt to return my email but very welcoming to us stopping in for him to get rolls in. The gym was super clean and Zack was amazing with the kids. Super clean and super welcoming. I can't recommend the 10th planet family enough and this gym is top notch. My son has already said if we ever travel back to Columbus, he wants to make sure we stop in again.

Checked out 10th Planet Columbus Today Saturday at 12 for the free Veteran class. It was originally scheduled as a Muay Thai session, but since the coach was traveling, it turned into an MMA situational class With the owner — which turned out great. Solid workout, great people, and an overall positive atmosphere. The owner is a veteran, so I fully support this business. The gym is clean, well-organized, and offers a variety of classes for all levels. If you’re in the Graceland area of Columbus, Ohio, it’s definitely worth checking out. I wanna get a lot of my veteran buddies up here on Saturdays to get a good smoke session.

Absolutely amazing experience from the very start of my first class. My first day of class I was approached By multiple students That introduced themselves to me and made me feel at home, Everyone I’ve met at this 10th planet is eager For you to grow and learn While doing it safely And learning the right way The first time. Coach Zack is incredible at teaching you in depth while making sure you’re learning and staying safe while progressing. I started out doing No-Gi jujitsu and this 10th planet and now I also do wrestling and striking classes. It’s not just a physical way to challenge yourself it’s also a great way to get a mental relief at the end of the day or to get a fresh start to you’re day at the morning classes. For me personally it’s therapeutic and I’m eager to learn and progress with Coach Zack at 10th planet jujitsu in Columbus.

I made a post on Facebook looking for a kids BJJ facility and Zack reached out to me. I told him my son was a nervous kid and that I wasn’t sure how he would do but he showed interest in it. Zack made him feel so welcomed and my son has gained so much confidence, coordination and respect skills from starting here. I highly recommend 10th planet to anyone!!

Had an absolute blast dropping into 10th Planet Columbus. Zack responded to my inquiry email super fast, and was welcoming and friendly from the second I stepped through the door. The facility itself is super clean, and the mat space is plentiful, as are the tough but friendly training partners. The technique instruction was really enlightening and educational, thanks to Zack's great teaching skills. It was my first time visiting a 10th Planet affiliate and I am glad this was my first opportunity to visit one. Hope to be back in the future!

10th Planet Columbus is an awesome place to train. Zach does a great job of keeping things interesting and switching up the usual drills so training never feels repetitive or boring. Classes are challenging but still welcoming for all levels. Great coaching, clean mats, and a laid back environment!

I had the privilege of training with Coach Zack during his time in California, and I can't recommend his instruction highly enough. As a jiu-jitsu instructor, he brings an exceptional level of detail to every technique, demonstrating patience as he breaks down complex movements into digestible (and effective!) components. What truly sets Coach Zack apart is how his teaching methodology is deeply informed by his formal education and experience as an educator. His technical instruction consistently produces results on the mat — but it's his character that makes training under him truly special. Coach Zack genuinely cares about each student's development, creating a welcome and supportive environment where everyone can thrive. Having experienced his coaching firsthand, I can confidently say his new gym offers an outstanding opportunity for anyone looking to advance their jiu-jitsu journey under the guidance of not just a skilled practitioner, but an exceptional human being.

I was out visiting the area for work and noticed they had a 5am that worked perfectly with my meeting schedule. I messaged and Prof Zack let me know they were ok with drop-ins. The hospitality, facility, and class was amazing. If you live in the area, or if you're on travel, I highly suggest checking them out. Thanks again for the warm welcome!

Coach Zack was with me from the start of my jiu jitsu journey at 10th planet Redlands. He is a great mentor and instructor, with extensive knowledge in wrestling, jiu jitsu, judo, and military combative experience, he is a great fit to be anyone’s coach. Whether you are new to the sport of jiu jitsu, or you are a seasoned practitioner, Zack and the 10th planet Columbus team make an amazing atmosphere and training platform to help you further your own knowledge of the sport!
