Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) aka Gracie Jiu Jitsu is the art of ground fighting. Originally developed by the Gracie family for smaller guys in the country of Brazil, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has evolved into an effective self-defense system, a thriving sport, and an essential component of Mixed Martial Arts fighting (MMA). Brazilian JiuJitsu does not incorporate many of the fancy movements and complicated theories that other martial arts employ. In the real world – most fights end up on the ground – you have to be prepared for that scenario.Our New Jersey Jiu Jitsu academy teaches practical self defense techniques with a no attitude, no ego mentality. Students learn sport aspects and practical methods that don’t require strength or athletic ability. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu was made for everyone.
In the Adult class, students will start by learning the fundamentals of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with the same program used at the prestigious Renzo Gracie Academy in NYC. A typical class begins with a light warm up and active stretch. Once everyone is loose, instructor Carl Massaro teaches students practical techniques and delivers personal care to ensure the class is learning and applying. Once the technique has been practiced and covered, live sparring for students who wish to participate is permitted. Students in all levels of BJJ are encouraged to join, from beginner to advanced! With Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, live sparring is an integral part of the art and what separates Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu from most other martial arts. Sparring is encouraged and fun! Come into our Northvale, New Jersey Brazilian Jiu JItsu Academy and take 30 days of class for absolutely free. Give us a call at 201-344-2052.
In the Kids Jiu-Jitsu Class children learn how to defend themselves with practical techniques that benefit smaller practitioners. They learn to build confidence, de-escalate dangerous situations, and most importantly how to avoid fights before they happen.
