Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a martial art that gets its roots from traditional Japanese Jiu Jitsu, but was created in Brazil by the Gracie Family.  It teaches that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend themselves from a larger, stronger assailant by using leverage and proper technique, most notably by using  joint locks and chokes.

Our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes are based on practical self defense, and most techniques are grappling based.  Our Jiu Jitsu is great for both beginners and advanced students, and we offer practical defense training as well as sport Jiu Jitsu training for students who want to compete in tournaments.  Be sure to check out our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu lineage page.  Our training comes directly from the Gracie Family!
