Sabre Jiu Jitsu Academy

At Sabre Jiu Jitsu Academy in Concord, students quickly notice the breadth of practical training options available for both kids and adults. The schedule features a strong mix of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in both gi and no-gi formats, along with wrestling and judo classes. Kids can start in basics classes—gi or no-gi—after just six months of training, and advanced youth classes are available for those ready to take the next step. Adults have access to fundamentals, advanced gi, and no-gi classes, plus open mat sessions throughout the week. Founded in June 2014, Sabre has established itself as a fixture in the local martial arts scene. The teaching staff includes Bryant Pangelinan, Cutter Marquez, Jason Ulloa, Drea Grace Santos, and Bruna Bueno, each bringing their own experience to the mat. The academy’s program structure emphasizes steady progression, with clear pathways for beginners to move into more advanced training. Adult students can also cross-train in wrestling, which is offered alongside the core BJJ curriculum. Sabre Jiu Jitsu Academy is also a proud partner of the We Defy Foundation, working to provide Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and fitness training as a resource for combat veterans dealing with life-disabling injuries or PTSD. The facility is wheelchair accessible, and drop-ins are welcome for most classes. Located on Detroit Ave, Sabre continues to serve Concord with a straightforward, hands-on approach to BJJ and grappling arts.
