Visiting for a couple weeks and took a Gracie Combatives class (beginner bjj) with Jeffrey I think.
Really enjoyed it, he was thorough and covered a lot of material. Also, he encouraged asking questions and paid attention to make sure everyone was doing the technique properly.
Everyone was kind and welcoming, definitely going to take another drop in or two. Highly recommended!

I've attended multiple other Jiu-Jitsu gyms in the area and Jeff's academy stands head and shoulders above the rest. As a physical therapy business owner, I am highly injury conscious, and the systematized, non-ego based, non-macho way that Gracie Jiu-Jitsu is operated makes this a super-safe and fun way to experience martial arts. Also, this Gracie form of Jiu-Jitsu is regarded universally as the MOST effective form of self defense around. So it's a perfect balance of safety AND effectiveness.
I highly recommend Gracie Jiu-Jitsu in Nipomo for kids, teens and adults alike, and this place is perfect

I was already doing Jiu jitsu and was going to a good spot that teaches Jiu jitsu. In the Jiu jitsu world the name “Gracie” is talked about a lot due to the history behind the founders the “Gracies”
So I came to see what all the fuss was about
& long story short I’m now training at “Gracie Jiu jitsu”

The owner/operator Jeff Martinez has a great understanding of not only Brazilian (Gracie) jiu jitsu, but of other martial disciplines as well. If you are interested in learning from a guy that will give you the tools to tango with all other arts, look no further.

Great place to start or continue your Jiu Jitsu journey. Jeff is a very welcoming, laid back, and educated instructor. Once you come here you will be addicted to your own self improvement, through Jiu Jitsu.

If learning badass martial arts in a safe, supportive, intelligent environment and creating connection and community with new brothers and sisters sounds good to you, I can’t recommend Central Coast Jiu-jitsu Academy enough.
I found Coach Jeff and Central Coast Jiu-Jitsu Academy through his connection with the Gracie family, who are at the cutting edge of jiu-jitsu- using ancient techniques, combining them with battle-proven real world concepts in which a bigger, stronger person can be defeated by a smaller, weaker person. In addition, distinct from any other local Jiu-jitsu group, Coach Jeff

Sensei Jeff Martinez is a truly well-rounded martial artist. Although trained in other martial arts as well, he values the technical, artistic and self-defense aspects of BJJ in addition to the more common sports-based application. A gentle ability to work with children and adults alike, Mr. Martinez also has experience as a former service member of the armed forces as well as a personal training expert. He will help you set your goals and attain them.
