Mountain Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Mountain Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Arcadia is led by Paul Nguyen, a black belt under Renato Magno of the Street Sports Jiu Jitsu lineage. Paul began training over 18 years ago with the Machado brothers before continuing his journey under Magno, who awarded him his black belt in 2013. His experience blends traditional instruction with a focus on building confidence, fitness, and camaraderie among students, reflecting the training culture he grew up in. The academy’s curriculum emphasizes a solid foundation in gi Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, starting with beginner classes such as BJJ 101 and progressing through adult and juniors programs. Students can also join specialized competition classes or schedule private lessons tailored to individual needs. Training is structured to develop technique and personal expression of the art, with classes available for men, women, children, seniors, and executives. Mountain BJJ operates from a wheelchair-accessible facility in the heart of Arcadia, offering group classes and private sessions. The gym supports drop-in students and encourages steady growth through consistent practice. The approach is straightforward: focus on fundamentals, train hard, and foster friendships on and off the mats.
