Hustle Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is led by Professor Russell Cantorna, a third-degree black belt under Lucas Leite and a member of the Checkmat team. With two decades of experience competing and coaching, Russell brings a deep understanding of both gi and no-gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, proven through multiple competition titles. His approach emphasizes technique over size and strength, reflecting the philosophy he’s developed through years on the mats. Classes at Hustle follow a structured progression, starting with fundamentals before moving into more advanced techniques. The academy offers instruction in both gi and no-gi formats, with programs designed to develop practical skills for self-defense as well as sport competition. Students of all ages train here, and the facility is wheelchair accessible, allowing a diverse range of practitioners to work on their game. Located in Santa Ana, the academy balances serious training with a focus on personal growth and empowerment. Open mat sessions and private lessons are available to support individual development, and the schedule is designed to accommodate different lifestyles without compromising the quality of instruction. Hustle’s connection to the Checkmat lineage underlines its commitment to high-level Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu rooted in proven technique and competitive experience.
