Brazilian jiu-jitsu a self-defence martial art and combat sport based on grappling, ground fighting and submission holds. BJJ focuses on the skill of taking an opponent to the ground, controlling one's opponent, gaining a dominant position, and using a number of techniques to force them into submission via joint locks or chokeholds.

​

Learning Brazilian Jiu Jitsu requires you to execute techniques that contain many small details.  Learning  to perform these techniques develops the fine motor skills and gives students a good understanding of base and balance. 

 

These skills then spill over to other sports and activities in their lives and aids in making them more successful not just in Jiu Jitsu but in everyday life.

 

BJJ will give you or your child a REAL means of self-defence.  Bullying is on the rise and a real concern in all schools.  Jiu Jitsu will give you more confidence and that is the #1 bully deterent.  Bullies don't want to pick on confident (children), they want easy prey.  But besides being confident, students will have the tools to physically defend themselves through hours on the mats spent training real situations and how to deal with them using BJJ.

​

In Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes students will meet many new friends and share common experiences like drilling techniques, playing games, and live rolling.
