Brazilian Jiujitsu for Everyone
Brazilian Jiujitsu is one of the fastest growing sports in the world with benefits fitting a wide range of goals. At Expedition BJJ we work to provide you with the most "time on task," playing grappling games to enhance your learning curve so you get the most out of your practice time. Whether you're interested in self-defence, sport jiujitsu, changing up those boring old workouts, or you just want to meet friends and try something new, our adult program has something for you, whether you are a complete beginner or advanced practitioner.
Gi and Nogi Programs
At Expedition BJJ, we offer both Gi (kimono) and Nogi (submission grappling) programs. In keeping with the current trajectory of the sport, we put an emphasis on the nogi/ submission grappling element while maintaining our traditional roots training in the Gi. Whether you're new to the sport or an advanced practitioner, you'll find the most modern approach to Brazilian Jiujitsu on the mats with us.
How do I know Expedition is right for me?
Our programs advance your physical and mental fitness through intense and focused training sessions. By focusing on deliberate skill-set development through principle based learning techniques, we create an environment where our members can THRIVE in the grappling environment and avoid the pitfalls of other programs focused on technique based learning where your progress is dependent on how many moves you've been shown. We're so confident our approach provides the most benefit for you that we offer a full two week free trial period for all new students so you can be 100% sure the sport is for you. Once you try our classes we're confident you'll have found the place for you.
Our instructors also range from big to small, male and female, so there is always an instructor with the perfect experience to help you with your individual struggles and goals.
Is Gi or Nogi right for me?
The short answer is both!
That being said, by having a focus on Nogi grappling at our academy, we can ensure that your training continues to be effective for self-defence even when the summer months roll around (and the jackets disappear!) in this generally chilly province. This focus allows us to provide you with the most complete skill set to defend yourself and the widest sport training opportunities.
No Reason Not to Give it a Try!
The benefits of Brazilian Jiujitsu training are numerous. In an effort to make the sport as accessible as possible, we offer a two week free trial period for all new students. If you've been interested in giving the sport a try, getting into the best shape of your life, learning to defend yourself, or all of the above, we have something for you! Take advantage of our full two week free trial and get started on the path to achieving your goals!
