Built on six core values—Family, Honor, Respect, Attitude, Discipline, and Loyalty—Six Blades Jiu-Jitsu Pacific Beach is a martial arts academy at 969 Garnet Ave in the 92109. Professor Gustavo Dias, a world-champion Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competitor, founded the academy in early 2023 alongside business partner Joshua Zdunich, and operations manager Mehgan True oversees daily scheduling. Dias trains in the lineage of Saulo and Xande Ribeiro, and he was profiled by SDVoyager for his commitment to building a family-oriented dojo rooted in traditional martial arts values. Students currently range from age three to sixty-nine, and the structured curriculum includes youth leadership assignments designed to build confidence, manners, and decision-making skills. Athletes looking to supplement grappling with strength and conditioning often train at Renegade, a group fitness gym nearby in PB. The academy holds a perfect 5.0-star Google rating across 113 reviews, making it one of the highest-reviewed martial arts schools in the 92109. Reviewer David Yoshimura, who has also trained at the Six Blades La Quinta location, praised Dias&s technical instruction and the welcoming open-mat culture. Beyond standard gi and no-gi classes, the schedule includes women&s self-defense workshops and mobility sessions open to non-members. After evening rolls, many students grab dinner at PB Sushi just up the block on Garnet. Free parking is available in the lot adjacent to the academy, and a free trial class can be reserved through the website. The academy is open Monday through Saturday, with Friday afternoon and Saturday morning sessions rounding out the weekly schedule.
