Alchemy Jiu Jitsu

Alchemy Jiu Jitsu in Tehachapi is known for its blend of technical instruction and inclusive atmosphere, built on the foundation of the Camarillo Jiu Jitsu lineage. Owner and head kids’ coach Yin-Chi Fuller, a Daniel Camarillo black belt, leads the academy with a structured and engaging curriculum shaped by her background in education and her own journey in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu since 2016. The school’s ties to Professor Daniel Camarillo, a 5th degree Guerrilla Jiu Jitsu black belt and 4th degree Judo black belt, bring a deep technical pedigree and a strong judo influence to the mats. Students at Alchemy train in both gi and no-gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, with programs for adults, kids, and women. The schedule includes fundamentals and advanced gi classes, no-gi sessions, and open mats, as well as specialized offerings like women’s self-defense and kids’ competition training. Youth classes are divided by age and experience, ensuring that young students get age-appropriate instruction and the chance to progress through focused practice. Adult classes emphasize technical skill, fitness, and practical application, with instructors like Steve Davis—a decorated competitor and black belt—bringing real-world experience and detail-oriented coaching to every class. The teaching team at Alchemy includes black belts and experienced competitors, each contributing their own strengths and backgrounds. Coaches like Rachel Jager and Andrew Felts support both kids and adults, making the academy accessible to families and individuals alike. The school welcomes drop-ins and offers wheelchair accessibility, reflecting its commitment to making martial arts available to a wide range of students in the Tehachapi area.
