KWBJJ OVERVIEW
Our class is structured by a dynamic warm up, explanation and drilling of technique, followed by the application of that technique which we call "rolling" (sparring). New students don't roll until they have a solid foundation of the basics and are ready. For some this is a couple of weeks and for others more than a month or two. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu isn't cookie-cutter and the learning curve varies, but it IS for everyone! Kids, women, men; athletic or deconditioned; young and "old"! Anyone can learn BJJ!
All classes are gi classes unless otherwise specified. A gi is another word for kimono. The gis worn for BJJ are thicker and stronger than a karate gi. We utilize the material for chokes and grips to control the other person's body. (In real life on the street, this easily translates over by using the clothing of an assailant). Other classes we offer are no gi- which is BJJ without the gi; some folks call it submission wrestling. This also translates over to real life scenarios quite nicely. There truly is no better martial art for self defense than BJJ and it is said that its effectiveness is second only to a firearm.

What's so different about kwbjj?
It isn't uncommon for there to be camaraderie among the students in a BJJ school. We feel that what sets us apart from others is that we are truly a family. Birthdays are frequently celebrated together; events at one another's houses (UFC fights, cookouts, etc); we enjoy time together on and off the mat.
Our school is a family-friendly environment. Are your children too young to start training? Can't find a sitter so you can go to class? Bring them anyway! We have a seating area with plenty of space for kids to play safely and we welcome them, so long as they are old enough to understand that they can't be on the mat during class time (safety reasons).
It is also no small feat to say that all of our students train safely and respectfully. There are no egos on our mats and no student is careless or out to intentionally hurt another.
The most amazing and fascinating thing about BJJ is that it always seems to change and grow individuals for the better. Confidence replaces insecurity; humbleness replaces ego; calmness replaces fear in the midst of chaos. Through that growth and change students become the best version of themselves. They are able to find a sense of peace, embracing and accepting who they are at their very core.
Sound amazing?
It is! Don't take our word for it though- come down and try it out for yourself. We'll see you on the mat!
