My name is Michio Grubbs and welcome to the Team Magnitude Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Academy Website. We are a Chris Haueter, 4th degree Black Belt , affiliate school and
are members of the Combat Base Grappling Association.
Serving North County San Diego, we are located in Oceanside, California. We help build self-esteem, self-confidence, self-discipline and provide an excellent environment to excel your current capabilities and skill level in the art of grappling. We train for fun, fitness, sport, and competition. We specialize in No-Gi (shorts and T-shirt) Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (also called Submission Wrestling or Freestyle.) Combining Brazilian Jiu Jitsu with Greco-Roman and Freestyle Wrestling, you willlearn: throws and takedowns, submissions and control, positions and strategy, counters and escapes.
Team Magnitude
We believe in team building. Each one of us is committed to help one another improve on a daily basis. We look after each other on the mat and off of the mat. Our #1 and #2 Rules that everyone memorizes from day one : Protect yourself from potential injury and Protect your training partners at all times. Off the mats, we often do activities together such as UFC parties, get togethers, movies, field trips to other academies for friendly training, etc. We are fortunate to have a wide variety of training partners from small to large, women and men, slow to fast and the cool part is: Everyone extremely friendly and welcoming!
TRAINING
Dedication, commitment, discipline, and attitude are just some of the words thrown around at the academy. We take our training very seriously and start slow to build coordination and precision to progressively work towards a faster, smoother, flowing Jiu Jitsu Game.
BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU
Very physical in demand but also a thinking man's game. Derived from Japanese Ju Jutsu (related to Judo) the art was brought from Japan to Brazil. It was taught to the Gracie Family in the early 1900's where they refined the art into their own style which is now known as Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu was made popular in the United States in the early 1990's through the Ultimate Fighting Championships where representative Royce Gracie displayed amazing martial arts skills defeating dangerous and much larger and stronger opponents. Today, the sport of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is growing stronger than ever at an incredible pace with tournaments in GI (uniform) and NO-GI (shorts & T-shirt) appearing everywhere and frequently including the World & International Championships. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a very big part of mixed martial arts fighting, no holds-barred (fighting in a cage or a ring), along with wrestling, boxing, and kick boxing.
