Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Founded in Japan, jiu jitsu was brought to Brazil by an ambassador named Esai Maeda, also known as Count Koma. There the Gracie Family refined its techniques to develop one of the most effective self defense systems in the world.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (or BJJ for short), as it is often referred to in America, can attribute its rise in popularity to the growing sport of mixed martial arts, where the effectiveness of its ground techniques are readily apparent. Also, within the BJJ community, the sportive competitions have flourished with its ever growing legions of competitors.

Although we see the best jiu jitsu practioners innovate new techniques, the system is rooted in fundamental principles and techniques, In carrying with the tradition of the Gracie family, we offer courses in the fundamental of jiu jitsu along with a self defense curriculum.

Whatever your goals are from our BJJ course, you will learn self defense techniques while getting into great shape, in a family friendly environment.
