The BJJ program welcomes both gi and no-gi training, with classes for adults and a dedicated kids’ Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu schedule.

Beyond the regular class schedule, Candal’s offers martial arts summer camps and birthday parties, making it a family-friendly spot for training and special events. The school is known locally for its accessible location on Katella Ave, with convenient parking and a strong emphasis on integrity and personal growth. Whether students are interested in traditional martial arts or modern MMA, the academy provides a practical and disciplined setting for growth at every stage.
