As a Former-D1 wrestler, I could not say better things about this gym. The community, instructors, and environment is really special. Give it a shot if you want to learn more about material arts and meet some great people 🤙
I cant speak highly enough of this place. Ive trained at some elite level BJJ gyms around the country and Guillobel is hands down the best one. Super friendly vibes, awesome professors, challenging rolls, and the best part--tons of high level black belts with a genuine desire to help the lower belts grow. Beyond grateful to Paulo Guillobel, Andre Pontes (Pretzel), and everyone else there!!
Very welcoming of my girlfriend and me! Great training partners, not spazzy, generous mat fees for the knowledge, felt safe, will definitely be visiting again. Thanks for the great training!
This place is a life changer I have not just Grown as a martial artist but also as a person, it is an honor to be able to have a world class jiu-jitsu champion as a sensei.On day one of walking in the vibe of camaraderie Is felt everyone there is humble and respectful, Every time I come in to train at the dojo I feel like I’m at home with family.If you take martial arts seriously and you want to level up on your jiu-jitsu game I highly recommend to come and train at Guillobel.
By Far The Best Jiu Jitsu Around. Amazing training and the knowledge is second to none. It is literally like a second family here. If you have been wanting to train but have been nervous this is the place to give it a go. Everyone from new white belts to black belts will welcome you like they have known you for years.
I live in LA and come to San Clemente occasionally to train with the family at Guillobel BJJ. I have nothing but great things to say about all my experiences there! The instruction is always excellent, the facility is clean and beautiful, and the people are all super friendly and fun. Its the perfect place for beginners to experts. Paulo has deep knowledge and experience in BJJ and he loves to share with those who are willing to learn. A great place for beginners to experts for BJJ training!
Jiu-Jitsu in its purest form. Both adults and kids classes are excellent. World Champion, Sensei Paulo Guillobel is completely hands on when it comes to his classes. No question on why this place was voted best martial arts academy.
Ive trained here for just over a year, and Im glad I did my research in the area before committing to go to Guillobels. This is not the McDonaldization of Jiu Jitsu- Paulo and Andre have the pedigree, patience, and experience necessary to be true teachers and mentors. A year ago, I was looking for a relaxed yet dedicated workout regimen within the martial arts, and Ive found it in jiu jitsu, specifically at this academy. Im grateful for the humble and tough students Ive trained with, and detail-oriented education Ive received, thanks guys!
I have been Sensei Guillobels student for now 10 years, from purple to black belt. I drive 55 miles each way just to be at his class. Best Jiu-Jitsu in San Clemente and OCs best!
