Head Professor: Luis Figueroa

Details: Ronin BJJ is a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Academy Located in Heart of Downtown New Haven CT that specializes in blending traditional Brazilian Jiu Jitsu with other grappling arts such as Submission Wrestling(No GI), Western Scholastic Wrestling, Judo and Sambo. We support a team atmosphere and create a comfortable learning experience for all ability levels from beginner to expert. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is an art based in ground fighting. Along with this, it teaches takedowns, takedown defense, ground control, and especially submissions. Submissions refer to holds that either cut off an opponent’s air supply (chokes) or look to take advantage of a joint (such as armbars). Brazilian Jiu Jitsu fighters tend to feel very comfortable fighting from a position called the guard, if need be. The guard postion in essence, wrapping one's legs around an opponent to limit their movement is what allows them to fight from their backs so effectively, and is also something that separates their art from most other grappling styles.

Kids Program Detail: In our Kids Programs, we instill in our students the qualities that will help them throughout their lives. Through the principles of Ronin Jiu-Jitsu the kids learn that Commitment, Respect, Focus, Self-Discipline, Hard Work and Effort always make for a rewarding experience and bring positive results. We build our classes in a way where the students know exactly how many classes they must attend and how they must behave in order to get stripes and belt promotions. We specialize in empowering children who have never joined any physical activity or have been victims of constant bullying at school, into confident, respectful and skilled martial artists. Consistency is paramount. Inconsistent training will many times lead to discouragement and failure to develop passion for training. All of the classes taught in our Kids Jiu-Jitsu Program are done by IBJJF Recognized Black Belts who are always assisted by one or two assistant instructors.

Other Programs Available: MMA, Muay Thai
