10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Seattle

10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Seattle is led by Kyle Parker, a 2nd-degree black belt in the 10th Planet system and the academy’s owner and head instructor. Located in Bellevue, WA, the school operates within the globally recognized 10th Planet network founded by Eddie Bravo, focusing exclusively on no-gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Parker has built the gym around an ego-free, beginner-friendly culture where students can start training without prior experience or a uniform, emphasizing a modern, leverage-based grappling style designed for real-world application. Training at 10th Planet Seattle follows a clear, layered curriculum split between Fundamentals and All Levels classes. Beginners receive detailed instruction on the core principles and positions of the 10th Planet system, while more advanced practitioners engage in live drilling, situational sparring, and positional control work. The academy schedules classes seven days a week, including specialized sessions like positional skill building and a “10 Round Thursday” for intense live rolling. Open mat times are also available for additional practice. The academy welcomes children aged 5 to 13 with a structured kids’ program that focuses on confidence, discipline, and respect through grappling. The facility is wheelchair accessible, supporting a diverse range of students. With a focus on sustainable training, 10th Planet Seattle encourages consistent attendance and personal growth both on and off the mats, offering a space to develop skill, fitness, and resilience over the long term.
