I came to Huntington Beach for a Celebration of Life for a family member, I train Jiu-Jitsu in the Gi and No-Gi Weekly. Even when I Travel I try my best to get 2-3 Training sessions in per week on the Road. Paulo Gazze's BJJ/MMA Gym is a Legendary Stop for anyone who loves to do and learn the highest level of Jiu-Jitsu, Professor Gazze is a 5th degree blackbelt who will soon level up even higher. When I visited his Gym, he loaned me a Gi and a Belt to use in his class, where I was absolutely treated like family. The class was high level and everyone walked away better for it. Im glad to say I found a new Friend and Coach to Visit when I travel to Visit Family in Huntington!! Highly Recommend this Jiu-Jitsu Coach and I am Very Picky. His Gym is like a Ferrari amongst BJJ Gyms, only the best way to go.
My journey at Gazze Academy began in 2006, and it has truly transformed my life in ways I never imagined possible. When my Muay Thai coach Mike Nolte first recommended this place to me, I had no idea I was about to embark on a path that would become so central to who I am today. Walking into the newly expanded facility fills me with pride every single time. Seeing how the gym has grown to double its original size reflects the incredible community we’ve built together over the years. The convenient parking might seem like a small detail, but after those grueling training sessions when your body is exhausted and your mind is still processing everything you’ve learned, having that ease of access feels like a blessing. What moves me most deeply about training here is how Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has woven itself into the fabric of my character. The respect I’ve learned on these mats extends far beyond the academy walls – it’s changed how I inter

I just took my first Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai classes at Gazze Academy, and I couldn’t have had a better experience! For the Jiu-Jitsu class, I had the opportunity to learn from the owner, Junior Gazze. He was incredibly knowledgeable, welcoming, and brought a wealth of experience to the mat. As the only woman in the class, I felt completely comfortable and supported. The entire group was respectful, helpful, and genuinely encouraged my learning. In the Muay Thai class, I trained with Seuua Daao. Wow, he was amazing. His passion for the art is contagious. Not only did he correct my form with care, but he also shared valuable insight into the history and tradition of Muay Thai. His energy, wisdom, and motivation made a lasting impact. The conditioning circuit was both challenging and empowering. I walked out feeling stronger, more confident, and inspired. Also, the gym is very clean, well-maintained, and organized, which made the overall
It would be an understatement to say that Gazze Academy helped me lose weight. It’s more accurate to say it changed my life. While i can personally attest to the benefits I’ve experienced physically, down 28 pounds and counting, the true change has come from the community at the gym. Professor Gazze is a beacon of positivity in each class he runs but he is not alone as the other instructors like Gio, Ryan and Francisco have pushed me to be better all around. I’ve made great friends and although it’s a great class, it feels like a community of driven and positive people who are all working together to improve each other. I cannot fully put to words what this jiu jitsu gym in Huntington Beach has done for me, because it continues to help me grow into a more confident, stronger individual. Thank you to professor and everyone else who has pushed me. You guys are the reason I cannot stop getting friends and family into the sport and specific
