Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, often simply referred to as BJJ, stands out among martial arts due to its emphasis on ground combat. Originating in Brazil, it has gained worldwide recognition both as an effective self-defense system and a respected combat sport. Instead of relying on brute strength or striking techniques, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu emphasizes the importance of leverage, technique, and strategy. By mastering the art of grappling (ne-waza), practitioners can defend against larger and stronger opponents, making it an ideal martial art for individuals of all sizes and strengths.

For those seeking authentic and profound knowledge of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, our adult class is led by Professor Oscar Amaral Prata, a 4th Degree Black Belt. Under his guidance, students will not only acquire the fundamental techniques of BJJ but also the philosophy, strategy, and deeper understanding that comes with years of dedicated practice.
