GI TRAINING

This class utilizes the traditional BJJ uniform or “gi” and is the perfect starting point for anyone new to Brazilian/Gracie Jiu Jitsu. There are gi classes and training offered 7 days a week at various time throughout the day including mornings, mid-day and evenings. We recommend all beginners attend at least two fundamental gi class per week. 

NOGI TRAINING

The “gi” being the traditional uniform (jacket & pants).. NO “gi” does not use the uniform. Nogi training attire is grapplings shorts and a rash guard type shirt. Nogi grappling tends to be a bit faster pace due to the limited grips (compared to the gi) and other attributes such as athleticism “can” play a bigger role against opponents.

SELF DEFENSE

Self Defense class adds the awareness of fighting scenarios to the students stand up and grapplings situations. Punches, elbows, kicks, headlocks, hair pulling (to name a few) are all possible in the “non rules” of a fight. The SD class brings to the forefront the added awareness and approaches to defend your self in these situations using Gracie Jiu Jitsu.

OPEN TRAINING / Q&A

Training / Sparring is where it all comes together and allows students to develop, test and apply learned techniques under various levels of resistance. We focus on smart training and have built a culture of students helping and working with each other to learn and improve together. All sparring and drilling are controlled and executed with the safety and well being of all students at the forefront of the training exercises. ​
