The 10th Planet System

What Is No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu?

Unlike traditional Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu that relies on the kimono (gi) for grips, No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu is practiced in rash guards and shorts. This modern, fast-paced grappling style focuses on clinch control, submissions, positional dominance, and real-world self-defense.

At 10th Planet Orange Park, we teach the proven 10th Planet system — designed by Eddie Bravo and followed by top-level grapplers and MMA athletes around the globe. The system is known for its innovative guard work, unorthodox positions like the Rubber Guard and Lockdown, and a philosophy that prizes creativity, problem-solving, and constant evolution.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu good for self-defense?

Absolutely. No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu is one of the most practical self-defense systems because it teaches you to control and submit an opponent regardless of size — without relying on clothing grips. Every technique we teach works in real-world situations.

What’s the difference between Gi and No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu?

Traditional Gi Jiu-Jitsu uses a heavy cotton uniform (the gi) that allows for collar chokes and sleeve grips. No-Gi is practiced in rash guards and shorts, making it faster-paced and more closely resembling a real self-defense scenario. The 10th Planet system is exclusively No-Gi.

How long does it take to earn a belt in Jiu-Jitsu?

Belt advancement in Jiu-Jitsu is based on consistent training, technical growth, and mat time — not a fixed timeline. Most dedicated students progress through each belt in 1-3 years, but the journey is different for everyone. Our coaches work with you individually.

Can I train BJJ if I’m out of shape?

Yes. You don’t need to be in shape to start — that’s what training is for. Our classes are designed to progressively build your fitness while you learn technique. Many students tell us Jiu-Jitsu is the first workout they’ve ever stuck with.

Do you have competition classes?

Yes. Our Wednesday night class is dedicated to competition training for both youth and adults. We also have advanced classes throughout the week that focus on high-level techniques and live sparring.
