Claim this gymAuburn CA Jiu Jitsu Academy is led by head coach Jacob Rivas, a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under Professor Terry Maxwell. With over 14 years on the mats and a background that spans Kyokushin Karate, Muay Thai, boxing, and Pankration, Jacob brings a broad martial arts perspective to his teaching. Raised in Loomis, he opened the academy to offer high-quality martial arts instruction in the county where he grew up, aiming to share the values of discipline, respect, and technical skill with the next generation. Assistant instructor Hannah Rivas supports the kids and youth programs, drawing on her own competition experience and a detail-oriented, energetic approach that connects well with younger students. The heart of the program is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, with a class structure that separates kids (ages 5–7), youth (8+), and adults, allowing for focused instruction at every stage. Both gi and no-gi formats are taught across all age groups, and fundamentals classes are available for youth and adults interested in building a strong technical base. The schedule also features open mats, specialized adult no-gi sessions focused on leg entanglements, and a youth kickboxing class that gives younger students a chance to cross-train and develop striking fundamentals alongside grappling. Auburn Jiu Jitsu’s curriculum is designed for steady progress, whether a student’s goals are self-defense, fitness, or competition. The academy emphasizes individualized attention and technical growth, with drop-ins welcome and a wheelchair-accessible facility. The inclusion of striking arts and a clear pathway for kids and youth makes this academy a practical choice for families and adults seeking a well-supported introduction to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Auburn.
