Premier Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Training in Carlsbad, NM
The Vision Behind the Jiujitsu Evolution
In December 2022, Johnny Mendoza and David Vasquez set out with a shared dream: to redefine what martial arts could mean for the Carlsbad community. They envisioned an academy where the door was open to everyone—a place where intimidation is replaced by invitation and where every individual is empowered to grow.
​
At Evo BJJ, we believe that the mat is a mirror for life. Our mission goes far beyond physical strength; it is about the quiet resilience of character and the undeniable power of a united family. We have created a sanctuary where students of all ages can safely push their limits, shed their doubts, and discover their true potential.
​
We aren't just teaching Brazilian Jiu Jitsu; we are fostering a culture of evolution. From our youngest students to our seasoned practitioners, we are building a legacy of confidence, discipline, and belonging. At Evo BJJ, you aren’t just joining a gym—you are joining a movement to become the best version of yourself.
