Turlock Academy Of Jiu Jitsu

At Guerrilla Jiu-Jitsu Turlock, we pride ourselves on providing a comprehensive martial arts system that combines the technicality and fluidity of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, the explosiveness and timing of Olympic Judo, and the persistent mentality of wrestling. Our primary focus is on self-defense, and we achieve this through a non-striking, grappling art that emphasizes the power of proper technique as a force to balance out potential strength disadvantages.

Our mission is to encourage those interested in martial arts to reach their full mental, physical, and technical potential in a fun, family-friendly, yet hard-working and focused environment. Whether you're a beginner looking to get in shape, improve your self-defense skills, or an experienced practitioner seeking to take your Jiu-Jitsu to the next level, we have something for everyone.

Our Philosophy

At Guerrilla Jiu-Jitsu Turlock, we believe that martial arts is not just about physical technique, but also about mental toughness, discipline, and personal growth. We strive to create a supportive community that fosters camaraderie, respect, and mutual support among our students. Our goal is to help our students develop a strong sense of self-awareness, self-confidence, and self-discipline, which will benefit them not only in their martial arts journey but also in their everyday lives.

Our History

Jiu-Jitsu has a rich history that dates back to the early 20th century, when Mitsuyo Maeda, a renowned Japanese judoka, introduced the art to Brazil. Since then, Jiu-Jitsu has evolved and developed into a unique and comprehensive martial arts system that combines the best of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Olympic Judo, and wrestling. At Guerrilla Jiu-Jitsu Turlock, we are proud to be a part of this rich heritage, and we strive to honor the tradition and philosophy of our art.
