EDJ Academy is described as more than just a gym and as a training facility and academy offering world-class Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training. The academy is led by founder Juan Pablo Garcia (also referred to as Juan Pablo García and JP), a 4th-degree black belt who has won multiple Jiu-Jitsu and MMA tournaments, including titles such as Florida State No-Gi Champion, IBJJF Long Beach Open Champion, multiple submission-only event wins, and NAGA Expert Division Champion.

In 2008, Juan Pablo Garcia moved to the U.S. permanently and officially joined Gracie Barra, and by 2011 he had earned his purple, brown, and black belts under Carlos Gracie Jr. In 2014, he moved to Corona, CA, and opened his own school, EDJ Academy (formerly PTT Corona). EDJ Academy states that “your success is our mission” and is described as a global community committed to excellence in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and to helping students grow both physically and mentally. The academy proudly serves the communities of Corona, Riverside, Hemet, and Rancho Cucamonga and has affiliated academies in Germany, Chile, Ecuador, Nicaragua, Colombia, and the U.S.
Unique features of EDJ Academy Martial Arts Programs include world-class Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training for students of all ages and skill levels, programs for adults, kids, and women-only Jiu-Jitsu, a Competition Class for advanced training and tournament preparation, and Private Classes offering personalized instruction tailored to individual goals. The environment is described as supportive, welcoming, and community-focused, with a focus on self-defense, technique, fitness, confidence, discipline, and resilience, along with a structured curriculum and hands-on coaching. The academy offers free trial classes and exclusive web-only specials and emphasizes both personal development and realistic self-defense, with training under a 4th-degree black belt instructor with extensive international experience.
Parent and student feedback includes comments such as, “Joining this academy and being a part of the EDJ team is one of the best decisions I’ve made by far” (Adrian M.), “If you're looking to join not just a team but a family. This is the place” (Juan M.), and “If you are considering stepping onto the mat, or have your littles try Jiu jitsu, I’d start here!” (Evelyn T.).
