Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art and combat sport that focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting. It promotes the principle that smaller, weaker person can successfully defend themselves against a bigger, stronger assailant using leverage and proper technique; applying joint-locks and chokeholds to defeat them. BJJ can be trained for self defense, sport grappling tournaments (gi and no-gi) and Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) competition. Sparring (commonly referred to as 'rolling') and live drilling play a major role in training, and a premium is placed on performance, especially in competition. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has been proven time and time again to be the single most effective martial art/ self-defense system in the world for both men and women.

Classes are taught emphasizing proper technique, realistic self-defense, conditioning and fun. Our classes include: warm up, plyometrics, basic striking, throws, takedowns, takedown defense, strike defense, standing escapes/ counters, drills, technical instruction, and live submission wrestling. Students are encouraged to constantly rotate partners throughout class during drills and live wrestling to acclimate them to opponents of different sizes, strength, body types and skill levels.

Beginner BJJ class focuses on the fundamental positions and techniques to develop a strong foundation and prepare students for their Blue belt. Once a student demonstrates proficiency of the basic skill set they will be allowed to attend the Advanced BJJ class with the instructors permission. Advanced BJJ is a more conditioning intensive class with instruction on more advanced techniques and drills.
