Our Youth Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Classes
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a cutting-edge martial arts style, perfected by the legendary Gracie family in Brazil. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu employs the use of throws, chokes, holds, joint locks, kicks, and strikes. Although students initially learn BJJ techniques one at a time without combining movement, the essence of BJJ is the ability to flow quickly from one technique to another to control an attacker.
