What We Teach

At Archangel Jiu-Jitsu we teach Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), Boxing, Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and Submission Grappling, all with a focus on realistic self-defense. At the core of our system is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, the world’s most efficient form of self-defense.

Why Jiu-Jitsu?

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (Japanese for “Art of Gentleness”) is a cutting-edge Martial Art style, perfected by the legendary Gracie Family in Brazil. Jiu-Jitsu employs the use of holds, chokes, throws, joint-locks, kicks, and strikes.

Although students initially learn Jiu-Jitsu techniques one at a time, the essence of Jiu-Jitsu is the ability to flow quickly from one technique to another to control an attacker.

An Art For Everyone

Jiu-Jitsu is excellent for women who are often taken to the ground during assaults. We recommend this style for men, women, and children looking for a great workout and realistic self-defense.

Technique Over Strength

This style allows for a smaller person to defeat a much larger attacker.

About the Belt System

A boxer is like a lion, the greatest predator on land, but you throw him in the shark tank and he’s just another meal.

Our Classes
BELT SYSTEM

From One Level to the Next

At Archangel Jiu-Jitsu we apply practical standards for graduating students from one level to the next: mat time, personal growth, and core competency of the positions and techniques. The main distinction between the colored belts is the increasing sophistication of the positions, and ease in which the techniques are applied.

Perfect for Children

Did you know that Martial Arts are better than Team Sports in developing a child’s self-esteem and confidence? Our programs can and WILL help your children reach their full potential, while developing discipline and skills that will last a lifetime.

We understand that everyone learns differently, which means your children will progress at their own pace.

We stress that Jiu-Jitsu should adapt to the student, we don’t force the student to adapt to the Jiu-Jitsu. Whether your child is athletic or awkward, strong or stringy, Jiu-Jitsu can work for them.
