About

Ground Dwellers Cabo is a sports school in the Lienzo Charro area of Cabo San Lucas specializing in ground-based martial arts including Brazilian jiu-jitsu and grappling. With a 5-star Google rating from 130 reviewers, the school has clearly built a loyal following among both locals and visitors. Sessions run in the early morning, midday, and late afternoon on weekdays, with a Saturday morning slot — an accessible schedule for families with a flexible vacation itinerary.

The coaches here emphasize technique, respect, and controlled movement, which makes the environment appropriate for older kids and teens who are curious about martial arts. It's not a drop-in arcade; this is a real training school, so expect instruction with structure. Families staying in Cabo for a week can sign up for multiple sessions and actually see their kids improve.

Located away from the tourist strip, this gives your trip a more authentic local feel — you're training where Cabo residents train. Closed Sundays.
