Brentwood Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Academy is owned and operated by multi-martial art blackbelt Jeremy Akin. We are part of the Luiz Palhares Jiu-Jitsu Association. Our main goal at Brentwood BJJ is to provide the most solid technical training possible for EVERYONE while maintaining a relaxed friendly atmosphere free of EGO!

"When I started this academy in 2005 I wanted to make sure that we focused on all areas of Jiu Jitsu - from the proven Gracie self defense techniques, to the constantly evolving tournament Jiu Jitsu seen at the world level competions.

No matter how long I teach I will always remain a student first, constantly looking to improve and refine the techniques for myself and my students." - Jeremy Akin
