BJJ in Hawthorne

Hawthorne sits in the South Bay between LAX and Torrance, carrying 3 BJJ academies that collectively cover a wide range of styles. **Pedigo Submission Fighting Los Angeles** is the LA outpost of the Pedigo Submission Fighting team — a Midwest-rooted, grappling-focused organization known for its strong competition record in submission-only formats. **Systems Training Center** is a long-established South Bay MMA gym. **Sweet Science Boxing & MMA** rounds out the local roster with a striking-integrated approach. Hawthorne is 5 minutes from Redondo Beach and 10 minutes from Torrance, both of which carry additional BJJ options. The El Segundo Checkmat affiliate is just north near the LAX corridor. Residents near the 105 / 405 interchange have reasonable access to the full South Bay cluster without commuting to the Westside. Expect $110–$160/mo for adult unlimited.
