Ultra Jiu Jitsu Academy

At Ultra Jiu Jitsu Academy in Santa Clarita, students step into a methodically structured learning environment built around a rotating 16-week curriculum. Every practitioner, from young beginners to seasoned adults, works through 11 key positions and their offensive and defensive options, ensuring that the vast world of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is broken down into manageable, logical steps. Dedicated “Fix My Game” sessions give students the chance to dive deeper into techniques, resolve trouble spots, and discuss strategy with instructors—helping to reinforce understanding beyond simple repetition. Founded in 2020 by Alexis Nixon and Pedro Serrano, Ultra Jiu Jitsu Academy was created to provide clear, quality instruction and to enrich students’ lives both on and off the mats. Head instructor Pedro Serrano and Professor Sky Lovell—who earned his black belt under Rômulo Barral—lead a team focused on both technical development and practical self-defense. The self-defense program is integrated directly into the Jiu-Jitsu curriculum, using realistic scenarios and situational drills to prepare students for challenges beyond the academy. The class schedule covers a wide range of ages and experience levels, with kids’ programs beginning at age 3 and progressing through advanced training for teens, including both gi and no-gi formats. Adults train in all-levels gi classes and live sparring sessions. Open mat times and an online curriculum library allow for continued growth outside regular class hours. Ultra Jiu Jitsu Academy welcomes drop-ins and emphasizes a respectful, focused training atmosphere with clear guidelines for conduct and hygiene.
