Head Professor: Nick Pollaro

Details: At Pollaro's Martial Arts, training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is both fun and practical. We focus on techniques that are effective regardless of age, experience, or fitness level. Our classes prepare students for tournaments and sparring situations as well as real-world self defense scenarios. Lead Instructor, Nick Pollaro, served as a police officer for 20 years and is currently a Law Enforcement Instructor for the state of Indiana. Nick’s experience as a police officer allows him to offer a realistic self-defense component to the training. Nick is also the creator of the instructional video, The Arm Wrap Series for Safe Law Enforcement. Our first priority is safety. Students will never be pushed beyond their comfort level. Opportunities are available for students who wish to compete in tournaments. However, tournament participation is not required or expected.
