Jiu Jitsu
and Life walk together.

At Inspirit Jiu Jitsu, we believe the lessons learned on the mat extend far beyond training. Our mission is to guide students of all ages through the discipline, respect, and resilience that Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu teaches — in every roll, every challenge, and every victory.

 

Rooted in tradition and driven by excellence, Inspirit is more than a school — it's a community. Here, we don’t just train athletes. We build confident kids, empowered women, and stronger families.

Originally from Belo Horizonte, Brazil, Rodrigo began training in 1997 and earned his black belt under the legendary Master Aldo "Caveirinha" Januário in 2007. After moving to the U.S. to help expand Gracie Barra, Rodrigo went on to build his own academy in 2015. Today, he leads Inspirit Jiu Jitsu in Redondo Beach, focusing on world-class training, strong community, and a family-first culture on and off the mats.

The Art of Control.
The Power of Calm.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art focused on ground fighting, control, and submissions. Unlike striking-based arts, BJJ emphasizes technique over strength, allowing smaller individuals to neutralize larger opponents through leverage and timing.

More than just self-defense, BJJ is a discipline of personal growth. On the mats, you’ll learn how to stay calm under pressure, make decisions in chaos, and build resilience — physically, mentally, and emotionally. Every roll is a lesson in problem-solving, humility, and persistence.
