Ashland Jiu Jitsu Academy currently offers Adult Jiu Jitsu, Kids Jiu Jitsu, and Kickboxing classes. All levels of experience are welcome.
BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is often referred to as "the gentle art" but a better definition might be "the art of control that leads to submission." Brazilian Jiu Jitsu allows for live sparring against a resisting opponent. This reality-based approach allows for the development of techniques in a way that is more tangible and therefore more effective when used in “the real world.” Our classes are designed for anyone to participate because we believe that Jiu Jitsu is for everyone.
SELF-DEFENSE
​
Learn a nonviolent self-defense style that avoids punches and kicks and instead focuses on leverage-based control holds.
KICKBOXING
​
Kickboxing is considered a hard style in comparison to soft styles such as BJJ, Judo, or Aikido. Techniques center around punches and kicks but also include the use of knees and elbows.
