BRAZILIAN JIUÂ JITSU (BJJ)
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a martial art, combat sport, and self defence system that focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting.
At DSD Academy we teach BJJ in the Gi, and also 'No-Gi'; which is typically known as 'Submission Grappling'.
With roots in Judo, BJJ promotes the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend against a bigger, stronger assailant by using proper technique, leverage, and most notably, taking the fight to the ground.
It is a high intensity martial art that can help students to structure their life, develop discipline and respect, build healthy habits and increase their self-confidence.
The concept of ‘community’ is central to the philosophy of BJJ instruction at DSD Academy: everyone is welcome, with ‘inclusivity’ being at the heart of our teaching.
Come and make lifelong friends and embark on a journey of personal growth and development.
Roll with us.
