I joined Phenom a few months ago having no idea about BJJ. Professor Martin and his students have welcomed me from day one. This is a great learning environment. Everybody is so humble and interested in helping one another be successful at this art. Professor Martin takes the time to show the details in what he is teaching and is always available to answer any questions. I highly recommend this academy to anybody interested in BJJ. This year there is even a beginners BJJ and self defense course that is great for people like me who are starting out and have no idea where to begin. Come and give Phenom a try. You will not regret it.

Phenom BJJ is a great gym for both beginners and advanced students! Professor Martin is great at teaching and is very approachable. The whole team is friendly and very encouraging. They also have a kids class and they also look like they are having a blast. I plan to put my kids in the class when they get older.

Phenom was the first studio I visited when I moved to the area. It does feel small at first because it is small but the gym is really growing and has a bright future ahead. Professor Martin has been an excellent teacher. He observes and feels when students need to push their training a little harder or when students should relax more. II am constantly learning and Professor Martin is not afraid to take some time to answer any of my questions when I feel lost in the art. Two thumbs up.

I tried two other schools before trying out Professor Martin’s school. I’m really happy I found him and his school. As an older guy, I’m in this to get in shape and do something I love. It’s great to train with people who are humble and supportive, not out to prove how tough they are. If you are looking for a place to practice BJJ, not get injured, and learn from an amazing instructor, you owe it to yourself to give this place a try.

Professor Martin Morachimo is am amazing bjj practitioner. I am not a member, but i have participated in the class. I have been training BJJ for 11 years, and have trained with many instructors, but he is one of the best that I have had the chance to meet. Coming from an outside perspective, He made the whole experience enjoyable, fun, and exciting. It is obvious that Martin both has a passion for the BJJ and for teaching. I would highly recommend patronizing this brazilian Jui jitsu academy!

I came to Phenom BJJ (with no experience) a few months ago, and I can’t stress enough how much I’ve learned since then. I walked in uncertain to my first class, signed up the next day, and have shown up basically every day since.
If you have the right attitude: the more you roll the better your Jiu Jitsu will get, period. But at Phenom, everyone on the mat is encouraging, welcoming and eager to learn… That type of environment makes mat time fly by.
Professor Martin is to blame. He makes every class dynamic and challenging and projects his experience to his students through precise demonstration. By relating each technique to the range of skill levels present in each class, Professor Martin keeps everyone engaged. I’m very, very new to BJJ, but Professor Martin can even get me to pick up on some of the «invisible» Jiu jitsu that makes each technique that much more effective.
Bottom line: Phenom BJJ is a solid group led by an extraordinary teacher. If you are eager to learn and willing to leave every class exhausted, you will not regret it.

Professor Martin without a doubt is one of the best Brazilian Jiu-​Jitsu instructors in the Orange County area. Professor Martin is knowledgeable, highly technical and his teaching style makes it easy to learn. The attention to detail is second to none. Every student is nice, helpful and eager to learn from one another which makes the environment even better. Every class I’ve attended was fun and I would always walk away with more information to improve my game. I’m a recent transplant to the area and looked at a few other schools. There was no other place that made me feel like a part of the team from day one.
Long story short, I signed up on my very first visit. Finding the right environment, friendly and supportive training partners and a knowledgeable instructor can be difficult. Phenom BJJ has it all.

I needed a place to train while I was visiting my family and I decided to try out Phenom. My experience here was excellent and I’m glad I chose this place while I was in Orange County. The instructors paid a lot of attention to detail during the technique portion of class and everyone was friendly and willing to help. This gym had a very inclusive vibe to it which made classes all the more enjoyable. I will definitely be training here whenever I come down again. The dojo is on the smaller side so at times during rolling, we had to make good use of space but other than that I was very satisfied with the training experience.

Professor Martin is hands down one of the best BJJ instructors in Orange County. He is very knowledgable when it comes BJJ and his teaching style is very detailed, which makes it easy for his students to learn.
Everyone in this school is very friendly and only help each other become better BJJ practitioners.
I would truly recommend this school to anyone, from a beginner to experienced.

One of the best grappling or brazilian jiu jitsu academies. This place is good for bjj competitors and kids
The location is a nice area, but a little hidden. It’s very close to the free way and near the mall.
The curriculum is great. The professors knowledge of bjj is incredible. He has little details in all moves, indicating the level of experience. Very easy to talk to, very friendly.
The other students create a very nice friendly environment. Combat sports are hard enough without the typical ego based students. You don’t get that here. Everyone is friendly.
I’ve been watched a few kids classes. They do a great job of making it fun for the kids.

Great people, great place! Very professional and a lot of fun. My 4 nephews just started training ju jitstu and they love it and look forward to it every week. They’re great and patient with kids. I’ve also have the pleasure of training with professor Martin and the others at Phenom, I’ve always felt very welcome and everyone is always very helpful. I would definitely recommend this place.

Working with Professor Martin has been an amazing experience for my 2 kids! He has a fantastic way of engaging the kids (even those who have ADHD), teaching Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in an exciting, non aggressive way and empowering the kids with self-​discipline, self-​confidence and respect. I can’t speak highly enough of Phenom Jiu Jitsu and Professor Martin Marachimo. We are so lucky to have found him and will follow him wherever he goes!
Our third daughter will be joining once she is 4 years old.

I cannot thank professor martin enough he has taught me so much. I am a professional MMA fighter and 7 of my 8 professional fights have ended in the 1st round by submission. I have trained with many world jiu-​jitsu champions and martin is a hidden gem, he is the only professor I know that could be a world champion, and does not want to be he is very dedicated to his students.

I’ve been training with Professor Martin for 3 years. I have lost 65 lbs since I’ve started. Professor Martin is Orange County’s best kept secret. Team Phenom is my family. Everyone is so humble and respectful.

Professor Martin is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet. I started training with him more than 2 years ago and haven’t stopped since. This sport is the perfect mix of physical and mental game. With Professor Martin’s guidance my game exponentially. I’ve always had fun since I started training here and I don’t plan on leaving. If you want to try something new and enjoy yourself while having a blast Phenom is the way to go.
We also have a fantastic kids program as well. Having worked with kids for the last 3 years I have learned how to combine exercise with fun and learning self defense.

Professor Martin is the BEST instructor in the Jiu Jitsu world I started training with him about 9 months ago as a new blue belt and he has taken my jiu jitsu game to a whole new level. Everyone who trains under him is very nice and very helpful. His techniques are very good and simple to learn. I recommend anyone to try out his classes as he welcomes all to train.

Great environment no egos Prof Martin is a black belt under Romolo Barral, and has so much knowledge to pass down to his students. Everyone on the mat is nice and helpful they all try and push one another to be better. If your ever in the area looking for a roll or want to learn the art of jiu jitsu stop by you won’t be disappointed.
