Guardian Mixed Martial Arts

ADULT CLASSES

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a tried and true martial art, and proven method of self defense – so reliable, in fact, that members of the Army, Navy Seals, FBI, and local law enforcement all train in Jiu-Jitsu. Students at Guardian begin by learning the most reliable techniques BJJ has to offer. Unlike traditional martial arts, there are no katas, or forms, to memorize, but like all martial arts disciplines, BJJ teaches discipline and respect. Our Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes are for all levels of experience. Although a background in martial arts can be beneficial, no previous experience is necessary.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes available include:

• Fundamentals of Jiu-Jitsu
• Competition Jiu-Jitsu Training
• Women’s Only Jiu-Jitsu (Self Defense)

Submission Grappling

(No-Gi BJJ)

Submission Grappling is a general term used to describe aspects of martial arts or combat sports that focus on clinch and ground fighting with the aim of obtaining a submission. It brings together techniques from Freestyle Wrestling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Folk American Wrestling (catch-as-catch-can), Sambo, and Judo. The Submission Grappling class is a great way to learn self-defense, and a fun way to keep in shape. No previous martial arts experience is necessary.

Muay Thai

Sometimes called Thai Boxing, Muay Thai is a discipline that combines stand-up striking with various clinching techniques. Students in our Muay Thai class learn techniques that include punching and kicking, as well as the effective use of elbows and knees, with a focus on self-defense. This class will build your self confidence, whether your goal is personal security, or preparing for the ring. Note that competition is not required of students in this class, and sparring is reserved for senior students. No previous martial arts experience is necessary.
