Thank you, everyone!

Yesterday’s Grand Opening was something we’ll never forget. Thank you to every student, parent, friend, and supporter who showed up, rolled with us, ate with us, and helped us celebrate this new chapter for our academy.

Your energy filled the new gym with so much love, excitement, and community. It was exactly what we hoped for.

We put a lot of love into building this new gym, and we want it to be a place where you belong, where you can grow, and where you can be yourself.

The job isn’t done! We’ll be adding more features and amenities to make this space even greater for everyone.

A huge, heartfelt congratulations to Janice, Blake, and Glen on earning their black belts. This is one of the highest honors in Jiu Jitsu, and watching each of you reach this milestone was emotional and inspiring. Your dedication, consistency, and heart represent everything Jiu Jitsu stands for. We are proud beyond words.

Our goal is to be a place where the Chico community can be uplifted, supported, and positively impacted through Jiu Jitsu.

Thank you all for making the new academy feel like home from day one.

Let’s roll!🔥

We started our new classes yesterday, and all the students got to see the upgrades, including the half pit on our mat.

Why we have a pit in the gym:
Jiu Jitsu is a sport that’s always evolving, and we want to grow with it, not fall behind.

BJJ now has a new format of competition where athletes fight inside a pit, a setup made for submission-only matches (no points, no stalling).

You’ll see this style in organizations like CGI, UFC BJJ, and Karate Combat, and many others are starting to follow.

So why fight inside a pit?
The angled wall keeps the fight from going out of bounds and creates a faster, more dynamic pace. It pushes athletes to keep moving and gives the audience a much more exciting match to watch.

That’s why we decided to add a half pit to our gym, so both kids and adults can start learning and adapting to this new competition style.

If you’re curious about our pit, come check it out and take advantage of our one-week free trial.

Starting this Saturday, our open mat is open to all gyms. Everyone’s welcome! 👊

I hope to see you in the pit! OSS! 🥋

Last night was special! Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate our final class at our Park Ave location, the place we’ve called home for over 10 years. We moved there in 2013, and now, in 2025, we’re closing that chapter with so much gratitude.

I’m incredibly thankful for everyone who has trained with us, supported us, and shared this space over the years. Together, we’ve built a community, a family, and a place where lives have been changed through Jiu Jitsu.

As we move into our new home, we carry all the good memories, lessons, and energy with us. And the things we’ve learned we can improve, we will.

This next chapter is about new goals, new direction, new instruction, and continued growth. We’re committed to making it even better and continuing to give everything we can to the community.

We’ll keep focusing on what matters most: good people, strong structure, solid morals, community, and Jiu Jitsu that builds character both on and off the mats.

Thank you all for being part of this journey.
Here’s to what’s next.

New location: 2515 Zanella Ln., Suite 6, Chico, CA
