Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for adults (BJJ) is a grappling-based martial art whose central theme is the skill of controlling a resisting opponent in ways that force him to submit.
We believe the most important gifts we can give our children are self confidence, discipline, and the ability to protect themselves in dangerous situations.

Many years of experience teaching the art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu makes Kevin a specialist in dealing with people in the martial arts business. His philosophy of teaching is based on creating a family style atmosphere where people can train in a friendly, clean and healthy environment, helping and developing together but always evolving and growing as a martial artist within individual skills and personal limits. Great attitude, good energy and a lot of smiles are always following Kevin wherever he goes to teach and now he will open his very own academy! In our academy we will start a way of teaching, for a better future, one student at a time; because we believe martial arts should be character building and promote physical fitness at the same time. We will provide a perfect environment to develop great people through martial art , promoting important values and principles that don’t seam to be a priority anymore in the modern societies but for us is a very important part of a better living: tolerance, compromise, honesty, opening, freedom, love, balance, efficiency, patience and control.
