Not managed on Matador yetJiu Jitsu
Alpine Jiu-Jitsu is a family-owned Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu academy serving East San Diego County from the town of Alpine since 2016. Founded by black belt Frank Califano, it teaches both gi and no-gi to children, teens and adults, from first-timers through advanced and competition-minded students. The head instructor is a multiple-time IBJJF World Champion, and the coaching staff is certified in CPR, AED and first aid. A large kids' programme, an invite-only youth competition team, women's self-defense events, kids camps and in-house tournaments give the school a strong community feel. Training takes place in a purpose-built space of roughly 5,000 square feet in the Alpine Creek Shopping Center.
