EDJ School of Jiu Jitsu Hemet

EDJ School of Jiu Jitsu Hemet is part of the EDJ association founded by 4th-degree black belt Juan Pablo Garcia, who brings over 30 years of training and more than two decades of teaching experience to the system. The Hemet location follows the same structured approach that has guided students from their first steps on the mat to success at major events like the IBJJF Worlds, Pan Ams, and Europeans. The curriculum is built on clear progression, emphasizing technical fundamentals, discipline, and leadership—values that have shaped not just competitors, but a wide network of instructors and academy owners throughout the EDJ association. The academy offers a full slate of gi-based Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu programs for all ages, starting with a Kids 3-5 class and progressing through separate age groups for children 6-8 and 9-13. Adult students begin in a dedicated fundamentals program, designed to ensure a strong technical base and smooth advancement. A women’s only class is also available, led by experienced staff, reflecting the school’s commitment to making BJJ accessible and supportive for everyone. The focus on instruction quality and student development is evident in the way classes are structured and taught, with leadership and mentorship built into every level. Drop-ins are welcome, and the facility is wheelchair accessible. While the Hemet location maintains the high standards set by the original Corona academy, it retains a local character through its day-to-day teaching and personal approach on the mats. Students here benefit from a proven curriculum backed by a large association, yet receive the kind of individual attention that helps them grow both as grapplers and individuals.
