BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is the most effective fighting style when in close quarters or on the ground. BJJ promotes the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend themselves against a bigger stronger assailant. This one hour class will teach students all levels of proper technique, leverage, pressure, take downs as well as how to bring opponents to submission through joint locks and chokeholds. GVMA offers both Gi and No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu as well as a women's only BJJ class so that women are able to effectively learn proper grappling fundamentals with partners that have similar physical attributes.​
