Martial Arts - Jiu Jitsu Youth & Adult
The Fraser Rec Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program is a 12-week program of Jiu-Jitsu fundamentals, a great place to learn the basics. Our professors are Brazilian Black Belts and have extensive coaching experience, are certified and have won numerous tournaments at all levels of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Jiu-jitsu is one of two martial arts that are defensive (the other being Aikido). There is no striking and the main goal in jiu-jitsu is to level the field by taking the opponent to the ground to get a submission. Brazilian jiu-jitsu is one of the most effective self-defense martial arts, where real life self-defense situations are explored at the beginning of every class. As a sport, jiu-jitsu has a point system for certain moves and advancements as you progressive towards a submission. Jiu-Jitsu is one of the fastest growing martial arts in the world. The fee includes your Gi. Upon registration you will be sent the Gi sizing chart and you may notify us of the size you would need. Interested?
