Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

While many martial art disciplines incorporate grappling here and there, when it comes to BJJ, grappling is at the core of all of your training. Not familiar with grappling? Here’s what you need to know – instead of utilizing weapons or striking, grappling is all about getting your opponent to concede through physical dominance. The rules and techniques of grappling vary depending on whether one is practicing Gi or No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu, as well as whether it’s being done in a sport or self-defense style. When grappling in BJJ, you’ll spend the majority of your time fighting from the ground and will likely utilize many different types of chokes.

Judo

Here at Cameron Davis Jiu-Jitsu, we feel that Judo should align with its Japanese translation, “the way of gentleness.” Though Judo, in our BJJ classes, is an intense martial art that requires great endurance and strength, it should be practiced in an orderly way that honors and protects everyone involved.

We incoroporate Judo in our classes to ensure they are challenging, yet extremely welcoming and fulfilling. We feel that Judo is the perfect compliment for athletes looking to drastically expand their physical abilities and gain greater experience in self-defense. Still not seeing the advantages? Our martial artists who practice Judo are known for their quick thinking and high levels of strength, coordination, and agility. Not only is it an amazing martial art to practice, but the skills you’ll acquire from it are guaranteed to take your athletic game in all other martial art disciplines to the next level.

American Wrestling

Our wrestling in each class is the perfect supplement to any and all of the martial arts you practice. This course teaches basic grappling movements such as throws, takedowns, and pins. The techniques behind American wrestling are found throughout many different martial arts, so it’s no surprise that many professionals feel athletes with a solid base in wrestling bring unique advantages and attitudes to the martial arts.

Self-Defense

Made for the real world, BJJ is a form of self defense that every person should master. BJJ focuses on ground level altercations – utilizing holds, throws, and a variety of submission techniques. This makes Jiu-Jitsu ideal when learning how to take on an opponent who may be larger than you, without necessarily having to hurt them.
