What Our Students Say

Andrey L
"Coach Chris is an exceptional coach/owner at Orange County Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. His patience, knowledge, and attention to detail create an ideal learning environment for students of all levels. Whether you’re a complete beginner or more advanced, he takes the time to break down techniques clearly and ensures everyone understands the movements—not just how to do them, but how to do them safely. One of the things I appreciate most is how seriously he takes injury prevention. He closely monitors the intensity and mechanics during drills and sparring, always prioritizing safety without compromising the effectiveness of the training. Another major bonus for me is the family-friendly setup. I’m able to get a great workout while my kid is in a separate class at the same time. It’s incredibly convenient and makes it much easier to stay consistent with training. Coach Chris brings professionalism, skill, and genuine care to every class. Highly recommended for anyone looking to train in a supportive, safe, and positive environment!"

"I have been training here for a year and a half. As a guy in my 40s, my main goal was to not get hurt. Thank goodness I found a gym that has avoiding injuries as their number one priority. Chris, the owner is a great guy and excellent teacher. It really is like a family here. I feel comfortable growing in my training and feel safe. Chris is attentive to feedback and truly cares for his students. My 8 year old son also trained here and he really enjoyed himself. If you're looking for a great bjj experience, this is the place. Highly recommended."
Brian Lindstrom
"I’ve been attending Orange County Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for about a year and half. I’ve really enjoyed the focus on self defense, the detailed break-down of the techniques and theories, and the community that trains here. Coach Chris lives and loves Jiu Jitsu, and it shows with the attention he pays to his students on and off the mats."
Stuart Jankoff
"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We couldn’t be happier with our experience at OC BJJ. The instruction is top-notch—every class focuses not just on technique, but on building real-world application and muscle memory. The coaches make sure the kids truly understand how to use what they’re learning so they don’t freeze under pressure. Chris, the owner, has been incredible with our son, Decker—patient, encouraging, and deeply committed to helping him grow both on and off the mat. His confidence has soared since joining, and he’s learning discipline, resilience, and self-defense in a way that’s both fun and meaningful. Highly recommend OC BJJ to any parent looking for a program that puts learning and personal growth first. This place is the real deal."
