Switch Fitness San Diego | El Cajon Muay Thai - Jiu Jitsu - Boxing - Judo - Yoga

Switch Fitness San Diego | El Cajon Muay Thai - Jiu Jitsu - Boxing - Judo - Yoga is led by Andy Murad, a five-time Bellator veteran who brings his experience as a fighter and coach to the gym’s diverse martial arts programs. Founded as a family-run gym in East County San Diego, it offers a mix of combat sports training designed to develop both fitness and technique. Murad and his team emphasize a practical approach that helps students build skills across multiple disciplines while supporting individual goals. The academy’s Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes welcome adults and kids separately, providing structured training that covers fundamentals through more advanced skills. Alongside BJJ, students can train in judo, Muay Thai, boxing, and MMA, which allows grapplers to improve takedowns, striking, and overall fight strategy. Strength and conditioning classes complement the martial arts curriculum, helping practitioners improve endurance and physical performance. Open mat sessions provide extra time for live drilling and positional work beyond regular classes. Youth programs are a distinct part of the gym, with age-appropriate classes in Muay Thai, kickboxing, boxing, and Jiu Jitsu aimed at keeping kids active and engaged. The gym’s location in El Cajon also makes it accessible to those from nearby communities like La Mesa and Santee. Drop-in training is available for visitors and locals alike, making it a practical choice for grapplers interested in cross-training across multiple disciplines rather than focusing on one narrow style. The facility is wheelchair accessible, supporting a range of students who want to train in martial arts and fitness.
