Martinez Bjj


Philadelphia, PA - 19149 | (215) 613-8360

Details: Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art, combat sport, and self defense program all rolled into one. Grappling and ground fighting are the focus of this program. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu emphasizes taking an opponent to the ground and utilizing ground fighting techniques and submission holds involving joint-locks and chokeholds also found in numerous other arts with or without ground fighting emphasis. The premise is that most of the advantage of a larger, stronger opponent comes from superior reach and more powerful strikes, both of which are somewhat negated when grappling on the ground. The health benefits of our BJJ classes can only be viewed as positive influences in your life. They include Weight Loss, Increased Cardio Strength, Increased Muscle Mass, Flexibility, Self Confidence and Stress Reduction, to name a few. Martinez BJJ Instructors have trained with the best Instructors, view their Bio pages on the website to read more about their training and instructors.
