10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Van Nuys

Step onto the mats at 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Van Nuys and you’ll find a no-gi jiu-jitsu school shaped by the fight-tested 10th Planet system—one where beginners, hobbyists, and seasoned competitors train side by side. Founded in 2010, this family-run academy in the San Fernando Valley has built its reputation on practical, modern grappling and striking, with a focus on real progress and a culture where everyone is expected to work hard and leave ego at the door. The academy follows the 10th Planet lineage established by Eddie Bravo, known for its innovative approach to no-gi jiu-jitsu, including techniques like rubber guard, lockdown, and the twister. Students can expect a steady progression through structured fundamentals, all-levels classes, and advanced sessions, each emphasizing live sparring and position-specific drilling. Muay Thai and wrestling are also core parts of the curriculum, and for those interested in MMA, there’s an invite-only program that brings the disciplines together for experienced students. Programs run from age five through adult, with Little Rollers (ages 5–8) and Youth Warriors (ages 9–12) introducing kids to grappling in a setting that values discipline, focus, and fun. Adults benefit from a full schedule that includes morning, evening, and weekend classes, plus open mat sessions for extra practice. Drop-ins are welcome, the facility is wheelchair accessible, and parking is available on site. At 10th Planet Van Nuys, the expectation is clear: show up, train hard, and get better—one class at a time.
