Classes
Fundamentals
The fundamentals program is our entry level (white to blue belt) curriculum. With consistent training, you will have a realistic chance of defending yourself against a larger, more aggressive attacker.
This course is designed to make the student competent in self-defense by the time they reach blue belt. We focus on how to deal with the most common self-defense situations with proper strategy, timing, technique and leverage. The student will learn the basic philosophy of Jiu-Jitsu as well as be exposed to basic competition style techniques.
Advanced Training
This class provides the advanced students the opportunity to train and collaborate with fellow skilled grapplers and delve into more complex grappling techniques.
BJJ Workshop
The Workshop class offers a chance to explore your personal interests and learn innovative techniques outside of our usual curriculum. It’s a great opportunity to focus on any areas where you may want to improve as well.
Kids Program
Jiu-jitsu is the most effective and at the same time most non-violent approach to self-defense in the world. We teach our students how to neutralize threats without violence. Your child will learn skills such as: discipline, anti-bullying, self-confidence, sportsmanship, respect, improved physical fitness, and self-defense.
Classes currently offered at our Omaha location led by Professor Dennis Bacon.
