Our adults BJJ program is designed for adults of all ages and degrees of fitness/exercise experience. Whether you are looking to learn self-defense, to build self-confidence, or just to get in better shape, our BJJ program may be for you.
We teach fundamental aspects of self-defense geared towards real life situations where an aggressor may be bigger, stronger, faster and better equipped than you. We teach you how to defend yourself and escape from a dangerous situation, as well how to control an opponent and eventually render them ineffective, if need be. We do this by teaching a combination of defensive tactics and positions, takedowns, ground control, body positioning, and submissions through the application of chokes and joint locks.
Let's face it, kids get bullied, and your child will eventually encounter a bully. Will your child fall victim to the bully or be empowered to confront this bully? We teach your child self-defense geared towards real life situations where an bully may be bigger, stronger, faster and better physically equipped than your child. Your child will learn to defend themselves and escape from a dangerous situation, as well how to "mentally", "verbally" and, if needed, "physically" render a bully ineffective. One of the most important things we stress to our children is why a bully decides to bully, and when it is appropriate and inappropriate to use "physical" jiu jitsu. If your child ever decides it necessary to get physical with a bully, we teach a combination of defensive tactics and positions, takedowns, ground control, and body positioning to kindly stop this bully dead in their tracks.

Let's face it, most women have fears that most men don't have or understand. Men don't have to worry about walking out to their car at night or if the man approaching them is thinking about assaulting them. Because of that, women must first understand this reality, then decide to learn to protect themselves, and discover that Brazillian jiu jitsu (BJJ) is one of the most ideal self-defense systems to learn.
Although BJJ may be one of the most effective self-defense systems, most women don't want to be in those training positions with a man that is not their significant other. Because of this, during class women are encouraged to roll with other women or an instructor they are comfortable with. As our student base of women grows, our goal is to have a womens only class taught by a female instructor.

During the fight, the suspect grabbed for Dylan's gun, admitting later that he was planning to kill Dylan and then himself. Dylan, a 13-year law enforcement officer with only one year of jiu jitsu training, ultimately controlled the situation using a jiu jitsu technique he had learned in class; the suspect went to jail, and Dylan got to go home safely to his family.
