Paragon Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Arroyo Grande

Paragon Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Arroyo Grande follows a structured curriculum that guides students through beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels, making Brazilian Jiu Jitsu accessible for adults at all stages of training. The program integrates techniques from wrestling, Judo, and submission grappling to create a comprehensive approach to ground fighting. Classes are offered in both gi and no-gi formats, with instruction led by experienced coaches including Aaron Steed, Aaron Rapp, Larry Hall, Jeremy Dawson, Jon Green, and Loweau. Open mat sessions provide additional time for students to drill and spar outside of formal classes. Beyond Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, the academy offers Muay Thai kickboxing classes taught by professional instructors such as Kiu Albert and Wes, including sessions tailored for kids aged 7 to 14. This blend of striking and grappling supports those interested in mixed martial arts training, while also emphasizing discipline, fitness, and self-defense. The Arroyo Grande location is part of the larger Paragon Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Association, which operates several schools throughout San Luis Obispo County and beyond. The facility at 1420 E Grand Ave is wheelchair accessible and welcomes drop-in students. Paragon’s teaching philosophy centers on providing a safe and respectful environment where students can develop skills through consistent practice and a progressive curriculum. The combination of diverse class offerings and multiple qualified instructors allows practitioners to focus on technical growth, competition preparation, or general fitness according to their individual goals.
