Power of Leverage Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
About
Beach Boulevard Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Power of Leverage Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu sits on Brookhurst Street in the south end of Huntington Beach, one of the densest BJJ markets in Orange County, where the school has built a 5.0-star reputation over years of training. Professor Kelly founded the academy and serves as Head Instructor, holding a 3rd Degree Black Belt with more than 25 years on the mat and competition titles from IBJJF, NABJJF, and SJJIF.
Kids Jiu Jitsu Programs
The kids curriculum is split tightly by age so preschoolers train at their own pace and older kids work toward live rolling. Programs include:
- Kids 4-5 (intro to grappling games, listening drills, basic position concepts)
- Kids 6-7 (foundational positions, escapes, partner drills)
- Kids 8-12 (full BJJ curriculum, live rolling, beginner competition prep)
- Teens (adult-tempo training with age-appropriate sparring intensity)
- Adult Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (parents can train on the same schedule)
What's Included
- Founder-led head instruction with championship-level competition background
- IBJJF kid-belt rank progression
- Pathway from preschool through teen and into adult program
Experience
The school emphasizes responsibility and discipline alongside technique, framing BJJ as personal-growth training rather than tournament-first. Parents in 89-plus reviews consistently call out the safe environment and patient coaching. A good fit for families who want a long-term home gym rather than a six-month trial of three different academies.
