CBJJSC

CBJJSC is known in Melbourne, Florida for its large, family-oriented training space and a deep roster of experienced coaches led by Professor David Sutton, a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt under Carlson Gracie Jr. With more than two decades on the mats and a background in both BJJ and Tae Kwon Do, Professor Sutton has shaped the academy around discipline, character, and personal growth for students of all ages. The coaching team brings over 80 years of combined martial arts experience, including standout instructors like Professor Jesse Rademacher—who leads both gi and no-gi programs—and Professor Jahsua Marsh, a 4-time collegiate All-American wrestler and active MMA heavyweight champion. The academy’s 11,000 square foot facility offers dedicated spaces for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, MMA, wrestling, and even yoga, supporting a wide range of classes throughout the week. Adult students can train in both traditional gi and no-gi BJJ, with additional opportunities to focus on wrestling, striking, or competition preparation. There’s a strong emphasis on making martial arts accessible to the whole family, with programs for kids—including a homeschool jiu-jitsu class and summer morning sessions—plus a women’s only no-gi class led by Professor Eddie Folger. Open mats and beginner-friendly sessions are a regular part of the schedule, and drop-ins are welcome. CBJJSC also hosts the annual Carlson Gracie Spring Camp, drawing instructors and students from across the country for a week of intensive training. The academy’s approach blends old-school lineage with modern, practical coaching—helping students develop both on and off the mats while building a foundation of respect, hard work, and resilience.
