JIU-JITSU //
GRAPPLING
OUR JIU-JITSU CLASSES
GI JIU-JITSU
Utilize the jiu jitsu uniform to out-maneuver or submit your opponent by controlling their sleeves, collars, pants, and belt. This style is slower-paced and more technical compared to no-gi.
NO-GI JIU-JITSU
On the contrary, no-gi is a faster and more explosive style of jiu jitsu. While the fundamental positions are the same, many of the grips mimic those of wrestling, providing an excellent segue to former wrestlers.
WOMEN'S JIU-JITSU
We have a very strong and supportive group of BJJ women. The women's class can help you acclimate if you are a woman new to jiu jitsu and can help you learn technique that will work to your benefit.
TAKEDOWNS
Takedowns are great to add to your game if you want to compete or have a strong self-defense foundation. We show you how to how to fall safely in any situation and how to take the fight to the ground.
HOW WE'RE DIFFERENT
ADAPTABLE SCHEDULE
If you work or study full time and/or have a family, then your time is limited. We have some classes that start while other gyms are closing for the day. Our morning, lunch, and evening classes are designed to give you time to go home, eat, shower, rest, etc., and then come to class or do class first and the rest after you are done.
NO ANNUAL CONTRACT OR FEES
We believe signing annual contracts is straight up shady. That is why we do month-to-month. You can cancel anytime by emailing us. Additionally, we don't do any enrollment or cancellation fees because we believe in transparency.
PATIENT AND FRIENDLY INSTRUCTORS
Our biggest differentiation is our instructors. They are patient and work well with all types of students. Our goal is for you to learn in an environment where you feel the most comfortable. With over 10 instructors, you can learn from 10 unique styles! Read about our coaching philosophy.
