10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Long Beach

10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Long Beach was founded in 2016 by Chai Sirisute, a 3rd-degree black belt under Eddie Bravo and Rigan Machado. The academy carries forward the 10th Planet system’s focus on innovative, no-gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, with a strong emphasis on both technical progression and competition readiness. After a fire in 2020 forced a rebuild, the school came back stronger and continues to serve Long Beach as a home for those looking to challenge themselves on and off the mats. The coaching staff at 10th Planet Long Beach is led by Sirisute, with support from coaches like John Staat, Matt Soto, and Chris Zarate. Their approach is hands-on and rooted in the 10th Planet tradition, with attention to detail across all levels of training. The academy’s programs are designed for adults and include structured no-gi classes at the fundamentals, all levels, and advanced tiers. In addition to jiu-jitsu, the schedule features Muay Thai and dedicated strength and conditioning classes, reflecting a commitment to building complete grapplers and athletes. Daily training is available with morning and evening sessions throughout the week, as well as open mat times for extra practice. The facility is wheelchair accessible, and drop-ins are welcome for most classes. 10th Planet Long Beach remains focused on practical skill-building in a resilient, tight-knit gym environment, offering a proven path for anyone serious about no-gi BJJ, striking, and personal growth.
