Adult BJJ program
Adult Brazilian jiu jitsu is separated into two categories: fundamentals and
Advance.
Our fundamental program consists of 26+ core techniques learned as combatives/self defense application. Once these skills are mastered over a period of approx. 3-9 months, you are eligible for advanced classes. The main difference between the two is advanced has more live rolling and more complicated techniques. This proces helps to prepare the newly training practitioner to ease into jiu jitsu with minimal risks of injury and not simply being thrown to the wolves.
Fundamental classes: Tues: noon -1pm and 6-7pm / Thu: 6:30-8pm
Advance classes: Mon/Wed : 6:30 to 8:pm. (advance athletes are encouraged to attend fundamental classes as well.

It is a highly focused skill for self protection used world wide in military, law enforcement and private citizen applications. It requires quick mobility, reflexes and instinct. This class is great for women, as a weapon is a force multiplier that can even the odds of a 100lbs woman vs a 250lbs man.
