BJJ/MMA hotspots in socal?

hey guys

im lucky enough that ill be spending a whole week in cali in about a month (first time!). obviously im going to devote some time to laying on the beach all day, getting fat, and chasing coked out blondes around, but i cant help but want to visit some of the many many top shelf bjj/mma spots in the area.

im going to be primarily in orange, CA zip code 92868 (socal) but ill have a car so i can travel a bit. BJM's place, elite mma (bas!) and AKA all seem a bit too far away, but team quest is about an hour drive so i imagine i will stop by and slob hendos knob once or twice.

thats all ive been able to find so far though, any advice would be much appreciated. i certainly wouldnt want to miss out on the pure BJJ places also though i dont know how to search for those exactly.

thanks much

 

Why are the blondes coked out?
