Our age and skill specific programs allow people with zero experience to participate. Our martial arts school prides itself on having patient, enthusiastic, and experienced instructors who care about your safety and progress while teaching your classes. We believe that if our students feel safe, they will learn Jiu Jitsu more easily.
We concentrate entirely on teaching students how to protect themselves against the most common attacks that you will most likely encounter in a real life altercation.
In our classes, time is never spent on learning traditional forms, board breaking, or practicing with outdated weapons that someone would never encounter in real life. While we respect the tradition and value that these common practices in martial arts schools in Maryland provide, we believe that students who want to truly learn real self defense skills need a more practical approach to martial arts training.
Gracie Jiu Jitsu is a martial art based on mastery of the use of leverage, timing, and technique over brute strength. It is the best martial art for a smaller person to defeat a larger opponent.
