What is Jiu Jitsu?
Bjj or Jiu-Jitsu—which literally means the gentle art—is a famous form of self-defense that does not rely on physical strength and power.

Do I need to be in shape to start??
Any fitness level is welcome to the classes. What we emphasize in our classes is hard work. Everyone is welcome and we will do our best to accommodate you.
