It’s not just a workout — it’s a life-saving skillset. Learn how to protect yourself and your loved ones, even if an attacker is bigger and stronger than you.
Come see why Seattle comes to our Adult Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program for self-defense.
The top two reasons why people don’t learn martial arts is because they fear getting injured, or that they will not be good enough.
The structure of our adult Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes make them ideal for beginners with absolutely no experience, and we prioritize the safety of our students in every class.
Our students and our instructors make us a big, supportive family here in Seattle. We work with each other, not against each other, as we pursue our goals together. Come for the jiu-jitsu, stay for the community.
We welcome newcomers with open arms!

In this program, you will learn the 36 core techniques of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) in a fun, safe, and cooperative environment. Gracie Combatives prepares you to defend against a heavier, stronger, or more athletic opponent in a real-life altercation.
Originally developed for the U.S. Army, Gracie Combatives is entirely dedicated to the mastery of 36 essential techniques organized into 23 one-hour lessons.
These 36 techniques address the most common behaviors with the greatest success in a street fight.
This program makes learning jiu-jitsu easy and fun regardless of your age or physical ability.
Once you complete each of the 23 Gracie Combatives lessons twice, you will qualify to participate in the Reflex Development (RD) Classes.
In Reflex Development classes, you will learn how to combine the 36 techniques to address the most common occurrences in a real fight.

Our students start at all different fitness levels, however, you will find that you do enhance your fitness by doing our Seattle BJJ classes. Isn’t that the point though? A fun workout that gets results!

Absolutely! Specifically because Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) has proven reliable in defending against larger opponents for nearly a century, it is the perfect martial art for women.
Many women train in our co-ed Gracie Combatives classes, however we also have women-only classes available if that is preferred.
We love seeing the physical confidence develop in our female students as they gain self-defense skills on the mat!
Upon arriving for your first jiu-jitsu class, we will provide a uniform, called a gi, for you to wear. We recommend comfortable undergarments or leggings, and a T-shirt or rash guard that you can wear under your gi. We will also have training attire available for purchase after your class.
Be sure to bring a water bottle to your martial arts classes, as you will be working up a sweat!
