Cleber Jiu-Jitsu

About...

What seperates training at Cleber Jiu-Jitsu apart from other BJJ gyms is that Cleber personally teaches all the classes himself. This has become a rarity in the recent boom of BJJ schools in Southern California. Having the opportunity to train with a world-class BJJ artist is a privelage any enthusiast will enjoy. But to have this honor each and every time you train is almost unheard of.

Since opening his Huntington Beach school, Cleber has gained a reputation for being an energetic and enthusiastic teacher. Making each student feel involved and important, Cleber has mastered not only the fighting aspect of the art, but humility as well. This atmosphere has also created a sense of loyalty in his students and has rendered a large base of core students that assist and offer advice to newcomers.

In addition to quality instruction, an energetic and down-to-earth teacher, and loyal students, Cleber Jiu-Jitsu is also well known for it's family atmosphere. On almost any given day you can find a pack of children playing and enjoying themselves as their parents train. Cleber's own family is often present, solidifying this family-orientated martial arts school.

When you train at Cleber Jiu-Jitsu you are guaranteed personal involvement, quality instruction, and an atmosphere that promotes success and freindship. Each year, Cleber himself expresses his gratitude and repays his students by holding an annual beach party and an annual Christmas party.

Students at Cleber Jiu-Jitsu are also highly encouraged to participate in tournaments as well. Cleber sends his students to tournaments as he deems appropriate and also is the host of the annual "Copa De Pacifica". In April of 2008, the 11th annual Copa De Pacifica was held in Garden Grove California. And yes, you guessed it...Cleber was there cheering and coaching the entire time.

If you are considering more extreme competition, Cleber also facilitates a pankration competition team. In December of 2007, Team Cleber finished in 2nd place in Dual team championships. Team Cleber will also be competing in July, 2008 for another strong showing in the pankration dual team championships.
