Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) isn’t just for adults. In fact, it’s the perfect activity for kids! This form of martial arts incorporates a lot of ground grappling and is based on automatic human responses. When it comes to self-defense, BJJ empowers a smaller individual to fight against a larger opponent. But the advantages don’t stop there. BJJ helps kids gain confidence, learn discipline, focus their energy, foster respect for others, and be a part of a one-of-a-kind community full of future friends and mentors!

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) has gained a lot of attention in recent years, and it’s pretty obvious why. 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, blows, 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.

While women are encouraged to attend any and all of our classes, we wanted to create something that is specifically catered to the amazing women at The Base Vancouver. This course is designed, planned, and taught solely for our amazing female students, and focuses on self-defense for smaller individuals facing larger attackers, reaching fitness goals, and training with like-minded women.

Our wrestling 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.

You may receive praise from your instructor on your kicks and punches in class, but then find yourself out of breath the second you have to spar. Sound familiar? If you don’t have the stamina and strength to back up your skills, you’ll find yourself losing fight after fight. That’s why we encourage each and every one of our students to enroll in our strength and conditioning courses. These classes will take your skills to the next level and get you in the best shape of your life.
