Whether you’ve been with us since day one or just started your journey, this celebration is for YOU. Let’s pack the mats, celebrate progress, and keep building together.

The coaches at GBP! The kids returned from spring break and classes were full each day, but we have a great team. We appreciate these special people so much and have enjoyed helping them spread the love for Jiu-Jitsu!

We have so many amazing families at GB Pasadena, but Marina and Jacklyn are our first mother & daughter joint promotion! We are blessed to have them. Jiu-Jitsu for Everyone!

Schedule update! Our Juniors & Teens have been working hard and have showed a tremendous enthusiasm for learning, so we are excited to announce an advanced class for them on Fridays at 5pm. It is open to students in the program with a red stripe on their white belt or higher.

Congratulations to everyone that competed yesterday at the CompNet! Win or lose, we are proud of everyone for overcoming their fears/doubts and more importantly, supporting each other in the process. Back at it tomorrow!

Kicked off our first No-Gi class this past Friday. It has been 8 months since our doors have opened and we are excited to continue to grow our programs for the team!
