Cantu Self-Defense jiu-jitsu 

My name is Roy Cantu, and I’m proud to welcome you to our school and to the timeless teachings of Grand Master Hélio Gracie. Our academy is built on the foundations of authentic Jiu-Jitsu, with a strong focus on discipline, practical self-defense, and personal growth.

🥋 I’ve been a devoted practitioner of Jiu-Jitsu since 1998 and hold a black belt in the art. Before founding this school, I taught at a local academy called TNT, where I gained valuable experience guiding students on their martial arts journey.

💪 In September 2008, with the support of my incredible friends and fellow students I took the leap and opened my own academy. We started by sharing space with another school, but it wasn’t long before we took the big plunge and moved into our current location. Just one year in Copperfield taught us that growth was necessary—and fast!

We’re excited to share our journey with you—subscribe, follow along, and join the community!
