In this class, we introduce and explore the primary techniques and positions of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. This is the class to start with if you have no experience in Jiu-Jitsu. You will learn how to move, train safely and become technically proficient. In every class, students engage in live training that is carefully structured to ensure safety and insight. Sparring sessions are framed with clear objectives and feedback mechanisms, promoting situational awareness and decision-making. Instructors facilitate discussions on the strategies being employed, helping all students, regardless of skill level, to reflect and learn from their training experiences. Applications of Jiu-Jitsu for self defense and sport are covered.
