Welcome to the Team Strength Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy (SBJJ). We offer an intense
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) and fitness training
program. Students can train to enter sports grappling tournaments, or just train for physical fitness
and self defense purposes. Students participate in sparring and rolling
according to their skill level and training objectives. Technical
drilling, rolling, and sparring are an important part of training
at SBJJ. All students must master the technical aspects of BJJ at their level prior to advancing to the next level of
training.

BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU
Brazilian
Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art that teaches students to defend themselves
using
take downs, leverage, proper posture, joint locks, chokes, and strikes.
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, although obviously similar in many respects to
Japanese
Jiu Jitsu, differs in some fundamental ways.Jiu-Jitsu was
initially developed by the samurai of feudal Japan as a
method of defeating an armored opponent. Punching and kicking an
armored
opponent is not very effective, so the samurai would use Jiu-Jitsu to
defeat
his enemy.
In 1914 Mitsuyo Maeda brought Jiu-Jitsu to Brazil. In 1916 Carlos
Gracie
started training with Maeda and it was the Gracie family that modified
and
created the system of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu that we practice today.
MIXED MARTIAL ARTS (MMA)
MMA is a contact combat sport using
a wide variety of fighting techniques. SBJJ teaches a mixture of
martial arts traditions. We specialize in striking and Brazilian
Jujitsu grappling techniques. Students practice both striking and
grappling techniques while standing and on the ground. Because
students and instructors share skills from other martial arts systems,
SBJJ is quickly becoming the premiere training center for advanced and
beginner students. Students with previous martial arts experience are
encouraged to practice what they have learned previously while
incorporating what they learn at SBJJ.
KICK BOXING
Kick Boxing is a contact sport
using a wide variety of striking techniques. SBJJ teaches a
mixture of martial arts striking traditions. Students practice
both punching, kicking, knee and elbow strikes while standing and on
the ground. Because students and instructors share skills from
other martial arts systems , SBJJ is quickly becoming the premiere
training center for advanced and beginner students. Students
with previous martial arts experience are encouraged to practice what
they have learned previously while incorporating what they learn at
SBJJ.
