Building Champions On and Off the Mats
- In the 1980s, Master Romero Cavalcanti and his standout black belts, Fabio Gurgel and Alexandre Paiva, each built thriving academies, sparking a spirited rivalry rooted in respect and ambition. Recognizing the power of unity, they came together in 1993 to form Alliance—laying the foundation for one of the most successful teams in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu history. By 2014, Alliance had grown into a global force with over 300 affiliates across 27 countries, all connected through a proven teaching methodology and Fabio Gurgel’s leadership.
- Today, Alliance continues to expand, bringing its championship mindset and world-class instruction to new communities, including right here in Chula Vista. Alliance Jiu Jitsu Chula Vista proudly carries forward this prestigious legacy, offering students the opportunity to train under the same principles that shaped world champions. Become part of a tradition built on excellence, hard work, and community.
- At Alliance Jiu Jitsu Chula Vista, our specialized programs are designed to create a positive, rewarding experience for every student who steps on the mats. Led by highly trained and certified instructors, our classes emphasize inclusivity, growth, and technical excellence—helping students of all ages and backgrounds build both skill and character. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is more than a sport; it’s a lifestyle rooted in the principle of the “gentle art,” where technique and strategy triumph over size and strength.
- Our Adult curriculum is thoughtfully divided into Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced levels, with dedicated modules for Competition and No-Gi training, ensuring every student follows a clear, effective path toward mastery. For our younger students, the Alliance Kids program blends essential motor skill development with fun, engaging activities that keep them excited to learn. As they progress, lessons become more structured around discipline, focus, and technical refinement.

At every stage, our programs foster a safe, challenging, and encouraging environment where students are motivated to reach their personal best.
