The Trojan Education and Training Centre in Bristol is proud to announce the opening of its Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu academy, Trojan Free Fighters Bristol. Specialising in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes for beginners and advanced students, the academy also offers boxing and pad work for all levels. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, a ground-based form of self-defence, has proven to be one of the most effective martial arts in the modern world today, both in competitions and in the arena of Mixed Martial Arts.
The academy warmly welcomes students of all ages and skill levels, whether it be for the competitive sporting aspect or simply for interest and fitness. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is for anyone who wants to learn how to defend themselves in combat or participate in an exciting and competitive sport with opportunities for local, national, and international competitions. Furthermore, BJJ equips students with skills that can be applied to various aspects of life, such as weight loss, stress management, relationship issues, and self-confidence. It promotes constructive problem-solving both on and off the mats.
For beginners, the academy recommends starting with the beginner classes, and the timetable provides details on class times and fees. Students can also opt for drop-in sessions at a cost of 10 for one class or 15 for back-to-back sessions. However, signing up for a full membership allows individuals to take advantage of all the classes available and save on fees.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu offers numerous benefits for children, regardless of their age, gender, size, or fitness level. It encourages training at one's own pace, helps foster new friendships, boosts confidence, and serves as a highly effective martial art for self-defence. Belt promotions are not given away but earned through hard work and dedication, and each student develops a personalised style of BJJ that suits their build.
The art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu derives from Kodokan judo and focuses on grappling and ground fighting. It teaches individuals how to successfully defend against physically stronger opponents using leverage and submission techniques such as joint-locks and chokeholds. BJJ training can be utilised for sport grappling tournaments and mixed martial arts competitions, as well as for self-defence purposes.
The academy also offers a Kids Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Competition Team, specialised in training according to IBJJF rules. The team focuses on various aspects of competition, including throws, hold downs, sweeps, positions, and submission techniques.
At Trojan Free Fighters Bristol, the emphasis is on providing a welcoming and inclusive environment for individuals to learn and excel in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. The academy is committed to promoting physical fitness, self-defence, and personal growth through the practise of this highly effective martial art.
