Growing With 10th Planet Freaks

Jul 26, 2025

“The 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu system helps you grow as an athlete and as somebody who just wants to learn for self-defense. That’s the unique thing about 10th Planet, everybody can learn it, whether you’re MMA, whether you’re self-defense, or whether you’re just doing it for fun.”

-Boogey Martinez, 10th Planet San Diego

 

I do not know and have not met Geo or Boogey Martinez of 10th Planet, or the Founder of 10th Planet, Eddie Bravo. But I know of them from when Paul filmed and took photos of them. We talked about them often, and I helped him edit their videos. I always thought they were two greatly creative men, and their breakdancing is spectacular. I get inspired watching people take their talents, skills and passions and put them together, to create something that truly makes them unique and stand out from the rest. They have created their own subculture for jiu-jitsu and I have never seen any footage from Paul, that was not packed with members and students taking their classes.

I have been sharing and enjoying some of their best photos already on this website. I told Paul, when we make our new site next year, he’s going to have to take new photos because I will have used up all their best photos here and on social media. For this post, I am going to highlight photos of people that I have not highlighted yet. These are truly the students starting from the Ground Up and they deserve to be recognized because they are some of 10th Planet’s best students (the kids)

 

 

“Movement is a big part of our training. We have a unique way of looking at the art itself. We try to stay creative just like Eddie Bravo did, so we added what we learned from our break dancing background and try to bring that into the jiu-jitsu world.”

-Geo Martinez, 10th Planet Oceanside

 

 

“I think that if you are looking for a place to really immerse yourself in the culture of MMA and jiu-jitsu, then this is the place for you.”

-Manolo Hernandez, 10th Planet San Diego
