Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a combat sport, and a self-defense system. It promotes the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend against a bigger, stronger, heavier assailant by using proper technique, leverage, and most notably, taking the fight to the ground, and then applying joint-locks and chokeholds to defeat the opponent. BJJ training can be used for sport grappling tournaments and in self-defense situations.

Our 3-5 year olds program has a strong emphasis on allowing children to explore movement and overcome obstacles. Students will play games and perform drills that will help them move as they continue to grow.

Our 6-12 year olds classes are designed to get students ready for both competition and self-defense while also building confidence and promoting positive learning habits.

Teens (13-19) are able to train Boxing and BJJ for free through our non-profit affiliate, Harlem Free Fight Academy. For more info or to register, please email: RichR@harlemfreefight.org
