BJJ Beginners

Coming into a martial arts academy can be intimidating for the beginning student.

Our goal with the fundamentals class is to allow our students to learn jiu-jitsu by focusing on the controlled drilling of techniques without active sparring.

The class also serves as a foundation for all students of BJJ, teaching the principles of the art and committing the core movements to muscle memory.

BJJ Advanced

For the student who is interested in competing in the sport, or if the student is just interested in testing his knowledge in a more practical setting, our advanced class offers World-class instruction. Our philosophy at Southside Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is to make Champions on and off the mats. It’s easy to receive a Gold medal in Jiu-Jitsu, so our idea is to make champions off the mats as well. It’s known that Jiu-Jitsu can be translated to the daily life. In Jiu-Jitsu, we learn how to solve our problems during the sparring sessions, solving one problem at a time, not letting our problems aggravate us; the same thing happens in lives – it’s applicable.

I have wanted to try bjj for a while now but have been put off due to it being a predominantly male sport. I'm so glad I finally got into it here at Southside, I don't feel out of place at all and I absolutely love it!
