A premiere no gi jiu jitsu academy in the heart of the San Fernando Valley, 10th Planet Van Nuys is headed by Eddie Bravo black belt, Alder Hampel.

His attention to detail on the basics helps create a better understanding of leverage and angles, giving you a dominate base that carries throughout the longevity of your jiu jitsu path.
Our Fundamentals program focuses on warm ups and techniques that emphasis a basic understanding of self defense, as well as movements and body mechanics needed to progress through the advanced classes. We rotate through a 6 month curriculum covering all of the major positions, concepts behind defense/staying safe in bad positions, basic takedowns, basic submissions, and general movement on the ground.
This class is where your understanding of jiu jitsu will grow much deeper, by introducing new, more sophisticated concepts and ideas that carry throughout all of grappling. We achieve this by not only showing you the techniques and movements involved, but by explaining “why” these movements are applied in the manner that they are. More live training will give you a more realistic feel of applying technique to a resisting opponent.
Whether you’re a beginner, or a professional fighter, we have every level of athlete on the mat, and pair everyone up accordingly. If you are starting out with “zero” martial arts background, then we highly encourage our students to complete our 6 month fundamentals program before entering this class. Every class will have a sufficient amount of warm up, technique, drilling, conditioning, and positional sparring. Come to step up your fight training or get an amazing workout!
