The Jiu-Jitsu League

Private lessons available now! Book your Zoom lessons and in-person lessons (with restrictions) by texting (562)719-1555! DM for more info!

Checking in! As the Covid-19 numbers appear to be improving and more businesses are being allowed to open up, we’re working with the city to find a way to get you all back to training. Unfortunately, we aren’t there yet - social distancing guidelines and mask requirements don’t work well with our sport! It’s important to us (and our property management) to do everything legally and as safe as possible, so we thank you for your patience while we work out all the details. We miss you and can’t wait to see the mats full of your smiling faces again soon. When we get the green light, you’ll hear it here first! #atoslongbeach #jiujitsuleague #jiujitsuinlongbeach #covidsucks

Happy 4th of July! We hope everyone has a safe and fun holiday! How are you celebrating today?

Update on our reopening: We heard back from the city and at this time, we are not permitted to run any contact classes whatsoever. If anyone is willing to do contact-free classes for the foreseeable future, please let us know! We need to have a big enough group of people signed on to open the doors. If you're curious about what is allowed for fitness centers and gyms (which we are classified as), please check out the link in our profile. We are playing with ideas to run som...e different contact-free classes. Grappling dummy drill classes, conditioning classes, solo drill classes, and stretching classes are some options we're working on. Please let us know your interest level in any and all of these, and if you have any other ideas, we are open to suggestions! Thanks for continuing to support us in this uncertain and stressful time. We'll get through this together! #atoslongbeach #jiujitsuleague #jiujitsuinlongbeach

Hey everyone! Just wanted to give a quick update. We made really big headway last week in regards to our facility. After months of stressful negotiating with our landlord, we've come to an agreement that will allow us to return to our same space once we are allowed to reopen. This was a huge weight lifted from our shoulders, and we're feeling so optimistic about the future of Jiu-Jitsu League! Now that we've gotten over that hurdle and we know we have a space to return to, w...e have to move onto the next hurdle... When can we open??? The city announced yesterday that gyms will be allowed to reopen with restrictions beginning this Friday. They haven't released the guidelines on it yet, but once they do we'll have a better idea of what that means for our classes. So far, the rumor is there will be 6ft distancing, masks, and limited capacity to be allowed to open. Our member survey came back that the vast majority of our students aren't interested in training in solo, non-contact drill classes. If the rumors turn out to be true and we must distance and wear masks, we probably won't be able to open in the first wave of phase 3, but we are hopeful our opening won't be too far behind! Phase 3 was originally slated to start in August, and it's already happening in June, so if things continue to track faster than expected, our classes could be allowed very soon. When we do open, we are planning to have classes for all comfort levels - non-contact, small groups, full-training, etc. But please keep in mind, the schedule will have to change to accommodate these new classes and safety measures (mandatory temperature and blood O2 checks, entry to exit flow, etc.) We may also have a phased opening schedule so that people can get to drilling sooner than later. We appreciate your guys' support through everything and we are so excited for the day when all restrictions are lifted and we can have a big party and train together unlimited! We'll keep you all posted when we know anything! In the meantime, please continue to check in on each other and stay healthy! We miss you all and can't wait to train with you soon! #atoslongbeach #jiujitsuleague #jiujitsuinlongbeach : @mezatron See more

Hey Jiu-Jitsu League Fam!! We wanted to make further update to what we are doing with your accounts in lieu of the ongoing Coronavirus Pandemic, but first I wanted to provide you all with a very transparent view of our academy and how we arrived at this point. If you want, feel free to skip to the bottom for how we will proceed. Otherwise enjoy the trip down memory lane. In October/November of 2009, we opened our academy with a black belt partner and the adventure began...Continue reading
