-Why Jiu Jitsu?
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is regarded as one of the most effective self-defense martial arts ever developed. The focus is on fighting on the ground, and using leverage and technique in a manner that allows a smaller, weaker individual to overwhelm a larger, stronger assailant.
The instructors and programs at Kraken Jiu-Jitsu are centered on promoting self-defense, self-awareness, and self-confidence, with our highest values being honor, integrity, self-discipline, and humility. We believe in creating and cultivating a positive, safe environment where anyone can begin their Jiu-Jitsu journey, regardless of their athletic ability, age, or previous experience.
We cordially invite you to come try out a class to see if we’re a good fit for you.
Your first class is complementary and is provided at no cost to you, select Visitor in the Member Detail section when you signup. Your only regret will be that you didn’t start sooner!
