Gyms Details:

Head Professor: Phil Migliarese III, Ricardo Migliarese

Details: When Balance Studios opened its original location in Center City Philadelphia in 2002, Phil Migliarese had already been a Gracie affiliate since 1988. He and his brother Ricardo Migliarese learned jiu-jitsu directly from the Gracie Family, earning their black belts directly Relson Gracie, son of Helio Gracie. Their vision for Balance Studios was a place that provides the best and most conscientious martial-arts instruction in an atmosphere that is safe, clean, and organized. Balance Studios brings together Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, and yoga together, all in the same place, for students in Center City and University City, appealing to a large and diverse student population from all walks of life. Balance Studios Center City is upgrading its brand in 2019 – moving to a new, bigger, and better location where blue mats, white walls, and complementary woodwork will accent the school’s well-established reputation as a clean and professional school providing a valued experience to students.

Kids Program Detail: Other martial arts systems teach violence against violence. They teach a child to react with punches, kicks, knees, and elbows. The Bully Self Defense program starts by teaching children how to verbally defuse a violent situation, to stop violence before it starts. However, if attacked, our students know Gracie Jiu Jitsu techniques that are defensive, use no striking, and can non-violently neutralize a bully. The confidence provided by the Bully Self Defense program teaches our students, as the Gracie’s say, “to fight fire with water – not fire.”
