Fastidious American Jiu Jitsu

Fastidious American Jiu Jitsu in Palm Bay is led by founder Justin Bounauito, whose experience on the mats shapes the academy’s practical approach to training. Justin is joined by instructors Erick Jordon, Chaz Brockington, Nenem Santos, and co-founder Jaxon Bounauito, each bringing their own perspective and dedication. This team’s ongoing commitment to learning and growth sets the tone for a school that values accuracy, detail, and constant improvement in both instruction and personal development. The academy’s curriculum centers on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu fundamentals, with a nod to the evolving American Jiu-Jitsu scene. Students train both in the gi and in no-gi, reflecting a balanced focus on traditional techniques and modern grappling trends. Wrestling-based takedowns and leg entanglements—including techniques like heel hooks usually reserved for advanced practitioners—are incorporated for those interested in competitive formats that allow a broader ruleset. No-gi open mat sessions offer a chance for students to test and refine skills in a less structured, dynamic environment. Fastidious offers classes for kids, teens, and adults, with programs designed to build skill, discipline, and confidence at every age. Kickboxing, influenced by Muay Thai, is also part of the schedule, adding striking and clinch work to the grappling foundation. The facility is wheelchair accessible, and drop-ins are welcome, making it easy for visitors and locals alike to train. Located near the Palm Bay-West Melbourne border, the academy provides a practical training option for the surrounding communities.
