What Our Students Say

Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.

Armando Gutierrez

"My daughter absolutely loves her jiu-jitsu class at Ethos Jiu-Jitsu! She attends the kids' class at 5 pm, and it's been such a fantastic experience. The instructors, Jerardo and Brett, are truly exceptional. They are incredibly thorough and attentive with all the kids, and as a parent, I really appreciate how they prioritize safety. What I also value is that they aren't "soft" instructors – they genuinely want the kids to learn and progress, which is exactly what I was looking for. If you're looking for a great jiu-jitsu program for your child, I wholeheartedly recommend Ethos Jiu-Jitsu!"

Elijah Kim

"The classes are well-structured, and there’s a good mix of technical instruction and live training. Everyone—from the coaches to the students—creates a positive, respectful environment that makes it easy to keep coming back. Whether you’re new to jiujitsu or have experience, this is a great place to train."

Israel Ortiz Soto

"My son has been training at this location for 1 1/2 years. He’s growth in confidence and skill has been exceptional. I started 6mo ago and have found a new outlet for growth and competition. Coaches and students are respectful and create a nurturing curious environment. If you have a kid or are 40+ you’re never too old or too young to come out to the mats. The new gym is also a huge plus!"

Gabriel Melendez

"Great location near Torrance for jiu jitsu. Clean mats and knowledgeable instructor. All classes are taught by black belt coaches. Great for kids and adult Jiu-Jitsu"
