A discipline in which only natural weapons are used, the experienced Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
practitioner can never be caught off guard. Through training, the student not only
develops the physical and technical skill to successfully execute both defensive and
offensive moves but also the ability to "read' your opponents.

Classes begin with intense warm-ups moving into technique, then sparring and
ending with intense conditioning drills
