“We endeavor to pursue our BJJ training and life by doing the right thing even when it is hard or seems unfair. We rise above and keep going forward. We take the High Road.”

What is High Road BJJ?

It is a club, a school, a team, and a thought process for everyday life. We are a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) club operating in partnership with Wall 2 Wall Martial Arts. Sensei Chuck Wall brought us on board in 2018. We are both like-minded, lifelong martial arts practitioners and instructors who want to share the benefits of martial arts with those willing to try. High Road BJJ is a school teaching traditional Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for self-defense, sports engagements, and fostering overall wellbeing. We have real-world experience that reinforces our passion to equip people to deal with self-defense situations. We also compete in BJJ tournaments because competition is the proving ground for BJJ techniques and strategies. As a team, we compete under Team Tsunami, the L.A. based Academy started by our Professor, John Ouano. 

High Road BJJ is driven by the unwavering commitment to embody the principles of the “High Road” both on and off the mats. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu demands patience, perseverance, and unyielding resilience. Within this martial art lie countless metaphors that mirror life’s journey, imparting invaluable lessons that ultimately mold us into healthier individuals. Just like life’s ebb and flow, the journey often presents more trials and tribulations than triumphs. We endeavor to pursue our BJJ training and life by doing the right thing even when it is hard or seems unfair. We rise above and keep going forward. We take the High Road.

Our Approach

As a business, financial sustainability is vital, but our true focus is our students’ happiness. We offer a flexible month-to-month payment option to avoid locking anyone into a contract that might diminish their interest in jiu-jitsu. BJJ is very rewarding but is also challenging enough on its own. We prioritize open communication to address concerns and make arrangements that satisfy both students and staff. That said, if students need to move on, we support their search for the best fit, never speaking negatively about other schools. Our goal is for people to study and pursue what they love, and for us, it’s Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. See what is out there and explore the world of jiu-jitsu with us!

Our goal

We have seen the power of what happens when people believe in themselves. We have seen how jiu-jitsu is a strong vehicle toward self-belief. We have also seen where regular training has helped people through life crises, made them healthier both physically and mentally and simply empowered them to do more than they originally thought. Not everyone may become the next jiu-jitsu champion but an enduring commitment guarantees they shall emerge as champions of their own lives. That is why we say High Road BJJ is a thought process – we draw many parallels from jiu-jitsu and apply them to our lives. 

Our remarkable staff epitomizes leadership honed through years of experience, enriched with operational and professional development tools that aid our High Road team. In the High Road journey, there is a mutual exchange of knowledge as learn from our students as much as they learn from us. Our goal is to simply elevate good people to evolve into better versions of themselves through jiu-jitsu training.
