Who We Are

A Different Kind Of Gym

10th Planet Van Nuys is part of the world-renowned 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu system founded by Eddie Bravo, a system that revolutionized no-gi grappling and produced some of the most dangerous submission artists in the world.

Walk through our doors and you'll find no fancy uniforms, no ego trips, and no shortcuts. What you will find is a community of fighters, hobbyists, parents, kids, and complete beginners, all training together to become harder to kill, easier to love, and a little better than yesterday.

We're built for the long game: real technique, smart training, a culture of respect, and coaches who actually care whether you show up.

Our Mission

Equip every student, from first-day white belt to seasoned competitor, with the skills, mindset, and community to thrive on the mats and in life.

01

Technique First

We teach jiu-jitsu and Muay Thai the right way: structured fundamentals, position-specific drilling, and live sparring that pressure-tests what you've learned.

02

Family Culture

Real friendships are built on the mats. Our gym is a no-ego, no-attitude space where everyone is welcome and everyone gets better together.

03

Built For Self Defense

Every technique we teach is fight-tested. The 10th Planet system was built for real combat, not point fighting.

04

Real Progress

You'll see measurable improvement every month, fitness, technique, and confidence. Our coaches make sure of it.

Our Roots

Born From The 10th Planet System

The 10th Planet system was created by Eddie Bravo to solve a single problem: how do you do jiu-jitsu when there's no gi to grab? The answer became a revolutionary, no-gi-first methodology, heavy on the rubber guard, lockdown, twister, and a unique vocabulary of positions that have produced world champions and UFC athletes.

10th Planet Van Nuys carries that legacy forward in the heart of the San Fernando Valley. Our coaches have trained under the system for years, our mats are open to everyone, and our standard is simple: get better every class.

Whether you're chasing a competition gold medal or just trying to be a more capable, confident version of yourself, you'll find a home with us.
