CROSS TRAINING

At Orange County Judo Training Center, we are committed to providing the highest quality judo training possible.  With this goal in mind, we strive to provide an environment that places a practical element at the core of our training through cross training opportunities. 

Orange County Judo Training Center and Gracie Barra-Costa Mesa offer our students the best cross training value in Southern California. We provide an opportunity for students who want to learn the time honored martial arts of Kodokan Judo or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu from highly qualified instructors in an outstanding facility.

In addition to providing traditional judo training, we believe that a cross training program that combines traditional judo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu can complement any students' training regimen, making them a more rounded athlete and skilled technician. Our philosophy and commitment to the value of cross training in both traditional judo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, are best presented by Mr. Dave Camarillo, a world-class instructor and athlete who has excelled in the arts of judo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. As an instructor, Dave has trained several of the top mixed martial arts (MMA) athletes in the world. His article entitled "Judo and Jiu-Jitsu, Integrating the Arts" gives his unique perspective on the value achieved by cross training in judo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. In this article, David gives his thoughts on the benefits and correct approach to cross training in both arts. For more information about Dave Camarillo, please visit his website at http://dcacademy.info/.  You can also purchase his book "Guerilla Jiu-Jitsu" or his DVD "Position Impossible" at the website store. Both products receive our highest recommendation.

Orange County Judo Training Center offers a compelling value to all BJJ students who are seeking the highest quality Judo instruction to compliment their current BJJ training. We take pride in helping all of our students reach their goals. Tuition discounts are available for members who desire to cross train. Our schedule allows our students to cross train conveniently by scheduling the judo classes after the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes, reducing scheduling conflicts. Our members benefit from the savings in time, travel costs and tuition.
