I have been wanting to find a martial art for a long time, and at age 43 decided to finally take the plunge.
I reached out via e-mail and got a response the same day from Jun one of the instructors at the academy. Jun is very patient and professional with students. He is encouraging, while focusing on maintaining proper technique, without crushing your spirit. The academy is very easy to reach off of the I-5 or the 101, and the facility is very clean and welcoming.
Professor Michael Phelps is very knowledgeable and mixes in competition level techniques with real world experiences. He offers adult

I recently signed up my 4 year-old son and myself at this gym. I gave my contact info through the website and June contacted me directly. He gave me good advice on the best way to start out my son and myself. Having a good first experience is important when getting a young child interested in something new and my son already loves 'ninja class' as much as I do! I'm only about 2 weeks in, but I've already seen that June and Mike are amazing instructors. It is impressive to see them wrangle a class of wild 3-4 year old. They teach with patience, and instill discipline while the kids are having a

I Highly recommend Del Mar Jiu Jitsu Club. This is a safe, clean, family friendly environment that we enjoy going to. Professor Michael Phelps is a Masterful Black Belt who is truly invested in having his students succeed. He has a very unique and professional style of teaching and capturing the interest of his kid/adult students. His Kids classes are Excellent. Mike focuses on his students strengths and provides encouragement to work through weakness. 2 years ago my child started as a timid 4 year old. He now has gained confidence to execute many Jiu Jitsu techniques. Personally, I have been attending

Michael Phelps is one of the most relatable instructors I've ever trained with. He truly cares about making his students better and will go out of his way to make sure you understand a move, a position, or a technique that you are working on.
Mike doesn't treat you like just another student, he treats you like family. Jiu jitsu is fortunate to have a school and instructor like what you'll get with Mike and Del Mar.

I have known Professor Mike since he started jiu jitsu and I can honestly say that I've never known someone with so much passion for a sport and commitment to helping his students better themselves. Professor Mike is always there for the students. On and even off the mats, you are treated like family. He is at every tournament coaching, providing support, and offering words of encouragement. He has excellent technique and is always studying jiu jitsu between classes.
The gym is very well-maintained. The mats are cleaned after every class and Professor Mike makes sure everyone has a clean, welcoming

I've been coming here for almost 4 years and couldn't be happier with this school. Professors Mike Phelps and Sinistro are great instructors who are extremely knowledgeable and always looking for ways to help you improve your game. We train hard but it's also a very laid back atmosphere which I like a lot. If you are on the fence about starting Jiu Jitsu I would start here...you won't regret it!
