On the mat we are all the same and we act like family. The beauty of the martial arts is how it brings people together and that is what you will find in our school. So, come on in and try a class for free and you will see why at Alliance Jiu Jitsu "We Make Champions!" both on and off the mat. BJJ Fundamental (ages 13 & up)With a strong focus on self-defense, Alliance’s fundamental class incorporates the same jiu jitsu first taught at the original Gracie academy in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil during the 1960’s. The class is designed to prepare students for both self-defense, and sport jiu jitsu while at the same time improving cardiovascular endurance, balance, and coordination. The fundamental program is designed for anyone, male or female, of any body type, or age (16 and over).
The class quickly prepares students for Alliance’s world renown advanced class, and gives students a sturdy base of knowledge that they will put to practice throughout their jiu jitsu study. Class format consists of the following; a light warm-up, 2-3 techniques are shown, and finally several drills are performed. The drills are Alliance’s secret to successful teaching, and are equivalent to sparing for beginners, but are done with little resistance to reinforce proper technique. There is very little, to no full-contact sparring in the fundamental class. Our founders, Romero “Jacare” Cavalcanti, Alexandre Paiva and Fabio Gurgel believe this is key in the evolution of beginning Brazilian Jiu Jitsu students. |
