Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has proven to be the most effective martial art through world class competitions like the UFC and ADCC. Jiu-Jitsu loosely translates to the “gentle art.” With the use of leverage and proper technique, even the smallest person can defend themselves against a larger and stronger opponent. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has rapidly become the most popular martial art in North America.
Our Jiu-Jitsu program contains no fluff. You won’t be wasting time doing things that have no transfer to BJJ. Here, you will learn technique, drill and roll all in a safe and controlled environment. Classes are safe and fun as we have built a fantastic and welcoming culture. At least once a week, after training we head downstairs to the restaurant or back patio for food and drinks. That is the beauty of being located inside the beautiful Croatian Sports and Community Centre. Everyone is welcome!
People with high self-esteem generally have more success at school and work, better social relationships, improved mental and physical health, and less anti-social behavior. These benefits persist from adolescence to adulthood and into old age. Train with us and you'll discover there is no better way to build your confidence and self-esteem then with Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
Having discipline enables you to choose, and then persevere with actions, thoughts and behavior, which lead to improvement and success. It also gives you the power and inner strength to overcome addictions, procrastination and laziness and to follow through with whatever you do. The bedrock of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is founded on building discipline and self-control.
Learning self-defence goes far beyond competing and winning trophies. The confidence you will develop from being able to protect yourself and not relying on anything or anyone else will cross over into other aspects of your life. You’ll find yourself feeling comfortable taking risks and putting yourself in situations in which you didn't think were possible before.
Meet new people and build lifelong friendships. This is one of the most enjoyable aspects of the sport. You will find yourself getting to know people from all walks of life. Our coaches are dedicated to your success. Whether that means pushing you to your limits, being a friend or just spending extra time with you to troubleshoot a technique you're struggling with, you will feel right at home at Hamilton BJJ.
