Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu looking for members
Ever wanted to pick up some real-world fighting skills, but don't really want to commit or put up with years of classes to learn techniques that may or may not work? Feel discouraged because you learn more philosophy than actual martial arts? Frustrated because not all aspects of fighting are covered, and feel like you have to take a myriad of disciplines to cover all bases?
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a no-nonsense, systematic approach to martial arts and self-defense that involves techniques of head-butting, punching, elbowing, kicking, kneeing, throwing, choking, immobilizing holds and positional control. Furthermore, striking techniques are refined to be intuitive, simple and easy-to-learn, yet effective.
Beginners can learn techniques without fear of injury. Intermediates can employ some contact to reinforce their techniques. Masters will enjoy an array of sparring partners available.
Anyone can join regardless of discipline. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu will serve as a great complement to your skill set for real-world situations.
The atmosphere is informal, but respectful. The Club strives to provide quality instruction, and all members are encouraged to freely share their knowledge.
Membership is free, and equipment is provided. No commitment is required.
Join for self-defense and sexual assault prevention, for sports, for strength and conditioning, and for stress-relief.
