Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ)

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is based on the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend themselves against a bigger, stronger assailant by using proper technique and leverage, and then applying joint locks and choke holds to defeat the opponent.

In this program, you will learn the core techniques of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in a fun, safe, and cooperative environment. Each one-hour lesson addresses standing and ground self-defense techniques. You will also learn drills to help facilitate the learning process. You can start the program at any time and participate in any class without previous experience and, since safety is our number one concern, there is no competitive sparring in this program. Sparring is held in a separate class and is 100% voluntary.
