Competition Team / Advanced BJJ Training in Wildomar, CA

For Students Who Want to Test Themselves

For students who want to test themselves, we provide a structured, supportive path to the podium. While competing is completely optional, those who choose to step onto the tournament mats receive elite coaching and detailed technical development derived from Tim Rennick’s own championship experience. We believe in preparing intelligently, combining smart conditioning with safe intensity to ensure you peak without burnout. You will train alongside a team that understands the perfect balance: teammates who push you to your absolute limit, but protect you every step of the way.

Led by a World Champion Coach

Our competition team is guided directly by Tim Rennick, who coaches most BJJ sessions and is present in the academy day-to-day. While Tim’s competitive pedigree is elite, what truly sets his team apart is the culture he cultivates. He is living proof that you can train for gold without destroying your partners. Tim became a Black Belt World Champion by utilizing calm, technical training and smart intensity, rather than relying on brute force or “gym wars.” He demands respect for teammates above all else, creating the specific environment competitors need to improve fast and stay healthy for the long haul.

Who This Is For

This program is designed for students who have established a solid fundamentals base and are ready to sharpen their skills at a faster pace. Whether you are a dedicated BJJ or No-Gi competitor, an MMA-focused athlete, or simply someone looking to challenge themselves personally, you will find a home here. We want to be clear: you don’t need to be a “killer” to join this team. We don’t look for perfection; we look for effort. If you have the commitment to show up and work hard, we will provide the tools you need to succeed.

The Carlson Gracie Standard

The Carlson Gracie Standard is simple: we do not believe in the “lone wolf” mentality. We believe that iron sharpens iron. Our room is defined by athletes who train hard and intelligently, pushing each other to the limit while protecting each other from injury. By combining rigorous preparation with smart training protocols and unwavering team support, we create the perfect environment for success. That is how champions are built.

Whether it is Gi Jiu Jitsu or No Gi Jiu Jitsu / Submission Wrestling, the owner Tim is a black belt world champion in both disciplines as well as a former D1 wrestler. He also has a Muay Thai and Wrestling program and you will see his material on BJJ Fanatics. Classes are relaxed and technical and he has an ability as a coach to articulate complex ideas into simple concepts that anyone can grasp. Kids classes are fun and games based. Great gym!

My daughter and son are currently enrolled in Carlson Gracie Inland Valley Jiu Jitsu School. They both enjoy going and practicing with their friends. Plenty of seasoned male and female helpers on hand to guide the young students. Bring plenty of cold water to keep you hydrated. These kids seem to enjoy each other's company, and if they need help or don't fully understand the move they are practicing, just say " Professor " I need some help. and that's what they will get. 👍

I've been training at Carlson Gracie Inland Valley for a little over two years now, along with my daughter(12) and twin boys (10). It has been a tremendous benefit to all of us. Jiu-jitsu is so much more than what you see on the mats. It develops character, perseverance, fortitude, and focus. Professor Tim is a great teacher, patient, detailed, and as passionate as anyone could be about the sport. He makes Jiu-jitsu fun to learn and I'm always excited to go to class. All the guys and gals that train there are great people, super nice and fun to be around. It's a great place to be! There are tons of kids that train there too, and my kids have enjoyed every minute of it. I encourage everyone to come in and take a class and see for yourself, I started at 43 years old and you can too, Jiu-jitsu will take care of the rest!

Professor Tim and all the coaches are fantastic with both the kids and adult classes. Superior instruction, always patient and helpful. The community of other students is incredibly supportive and friendly. Could not recommend highly enough. If you're thinking about signing up, do it today, you'll only regret not doing it sooner. I started with ZERO wrestling or fight experience and training BJJ has now become a huge part of my life. Signing up was one of the best decisions I've ever made for my physical / mental health!

Great learning environment!! My son just started training here this year and immediately loved the sport. Professor Tim is very kind, cares about the kids and is very knowledgeable. All the coaches there have been nothing but amazing. The growth you get to witness in these kids even in a short period of time is undeniable. We were in between this school and another when browsing around, did a trial class at each and I’m extremely happy we chose to be here.

Our son has been training here for two years, and the growth in his confidence, strength, and skill has been incredible. Professor Tim and the coaches are amazing—supportive, disciplined, and truly care about their students. Our son loves every class and has grown so much both on and off the mat. Highly recommend!

While the benefits are numerous, Carlson Gracie Inland Valley has helped my sons build strength, endurance and gave them the confidence to overcome challenges that they didn’t think they could do. They both look forward to grappling because they like to see who is stronger than the other. My kids have stayed committed for the past three years and at times I catch them talking amongst each other about the day they will get their black belt. Although that day is far from here; it has been a great experience so far watching them better themselves. Since day one, Professor Tim along with the rest of the coaches there, have provided my sons with the guidance and motivation to continue on with this life-changing journey.

Carlson Gracie Wildomar offers world-championship instruction and a welcoming atmosphere for kids and adults. Professor Tim is an awesome coach and really pays attention to detail when teaching submissions, take downs or whatever the “move of the day” might be. The people I’ve met have quickly become my friends (even though we’re trying to break each others arms). It truly feels like a home away from home. Whether you’re training for fun or competition, this is the place to be!

I couldn't recommend Carlson Gracie enough! My son started working with coach Tim and his amazing staff 2 years ago, the growth and development he's experienced is worth far more than I can I could possibly articulate. If you're looking for a reasonably priced, clean dojo with an excellent staff then look no further than Carlson Gracie Inland Valley.

Tim is an amazing mentor and teacher! I used to roll with him at CG Temecula as a brand-newbie, which is intimidating for anyone, and being a small woman with zero exposure to martial arts, having people like Tim made the experience amazing and makes people of all walks of life feel welcome. He’s a bada$$ jiu jitsu roller and always made me feel comfortable and taught me so much. People in the jiu jitsu world respect the Carlson Gracie name. If you have the opportunity to train here definitely don’t miss out 👊🏽
