Sonja Jimenez
"Brea Jiu-Jitsu has been a wonderful learning experience for my son. He has been in the program for 8 years. It is a safe environment for kids and adults. Coach Dan is great with training all ages. I highly recommend Brea Jiu-Jutsu."
Diego Tam
"Fantastic straightforward gym that caters to both competitors and hobbyists of all sizes and experience levels. Dan brings extensive experience in jiu jitsu and teaching, combining core jiu jitsu techniques with a focus on modern competition. This approach helps all students understand and improve. Highly recommend this gym to anyone"
Seton Seto
"Excellent Jiu Jitsu school. My 5yr old and I both train here and the instruction is top notch. Coach Dan is a Brea Unified school teacher by trade so he knows a thing or two about teaching. My kid loves the classes because technique is integrated with lots of fun and games. The mat is huge and its always clean and there is a 80" TV mounted with the day's technique playing during the class so that if there is some confusion about the move and Dan is helping another student, you can just look up and there it is. What a great idea! There are both serious competitors as well as people just looking for a good work out in the classes. One other bonus, a shower!!!! If you are looking for a school, this is one of the best. Try it, it may just change your life."
Michael Rodriguez
"Dan's jujitsu school is by far the best in Southern California. I wish I would have joined his school sooner. The quality of teaching is amazing, not only because of the detail he provides each student but he ensures we as students understand what he is conveying about the position he is showing. Also, providing video of Jujitsu tournaments allows us to see the move applied in real life situations. You cannot ask for a better Jujitsu school in Southern California. His open mats are packed with students from all over. Nothing but positive things to say about this school."
