    Jiu-Jitsu-Vs.-Traditional-Martial-Arts

    Jiu Jitsu vs. Traditional Martial Arts

    August 23, 2019 by

    Although any Martial Arts program is great for your child to be involved in, it is best to do your research to learn why Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is the most dominant and effective Martial Art. Although you may have not heard of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu as commonly as the traditional Martial Arts such as, Karate or Taekwondo, that is only because it wasn’t recognized in the United States for it’s significance until the early 1990s. The benefits of training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu are life-long, as the students learn how to defend themselves in real-life situations, with everyday hands-on learning. The difference between Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and traditional Martial Arts, is the live training at the end of each class. This training is fully supervised by our instructors, and it allows the children to display and gain confidence in the techniques that they are taught and acquire.

    Anthony Caciopoli reviewed Ultimate MMA and Jiu-jitsu Training Center – 5

    I specifically wanted to train Marcelo Garcia Jiu Jitsu and that's exactly what you'll get here, in both Gi and No Gi. Along with Boxing, Muay Thai, and a women's boot camp, your younger children can come to train and learn a skill that will not only offer them a safe, fun environment, but serve them the rest of their lives. This facility is large, clean and packed full of competitive champions. Not only do they get out there and do it, but they get out there and keep doing it. No one is made to feel uncomfortable at any age or skill level. They have female instructors as well as males and the women teach the younger kids. My daughter went for her trial day and she loved it. They make the kids classes fun. I've been coming close to six months now and I haven't met one person that wasn't kind or helpful. I really look forward to training here a long time, making new friends with nice people and entering Jiu Jitsu competitions. The trial class is free with no commitment. Come give it a try, it will change and improve your life for the better.

    Andrew Calandrelli is not only extremely knowledgeable, he is also a talented teacher. I've been to other martial arts schools, some good, some not so much and I have never had the quality of instruction that I've had at this school. Andrew's staff is professional, friendly and have a sincere love for what they do. The facility is exactly what you would imagine a great school to be. The students range in skill level from beginner to expert, but I've noticed that if you train with someone who is much better than you are, it's likely that they'll take a moment to give you some tips to make you better. Great staff, great students, great facility. No need to go anywhere else.”
