No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu training and Strength & Conditioning workouts in Oceanside

When learning Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, you should train both Gi & No-Gi to become a complete grappler and do not neglect your Strength & Conditioning.

No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu requires a somewhat different approach when it comes time to applying ground fighting strategy.

You will need to modify the grips and adjust your game plan to accommodate for the fast paced, slippery grappling game.

But training Gi or No-Gi...make no mistake about it, they both require hard work to EXCEL.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu requires diligent practice and perseverance 

Friendship and Camaraderie is the hallmark of our Jiu-Jitsu Academy.

Sunday Jiu Jitsu Open Mat Oceanside

 Sunday's are so much fun!  Most Academy's are closed but we offer MMA Open Mat at 1pm, Jiu Jitsu Open Mat at 2pm and Strength and Conditioning from 3:15-3:45.  Since it's open mat, there is no formal instruction so most guys and gals come in to work on an aspect of their game that they want to address.  Training partners will often help one another to improve the game.  It is a relaxed atmosphere where people come to work hard and have fun at the same time.
