Learn the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in a safe and controlled environment. Valley Jiu-Jitsu invites you to join our family and receive instruction in the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. We offer classes for men, women, and children in our newly renovated training facility.

Jiu-Jitsu, which translates as the "gentle art," is an effective form of self-defence and fitness. A martial art that has evolved over thousands of years, Jiu-Jitsu became a sophisticated form of self-defence during feudal Japan under the dedicated practice and refinement of the Samurai.

In 1882 Dr. Jigoro Kano adapted his Jiu-Ji464px-Jigoro_Kano_and_Kyuzo_Mifune.jpgtsu techniques to create a sport friendly form called Judo. This internationally recognized sport continues to enjoy success throughout the world. In the early 1900's a Judo prodigy named Mitsuyo Maeda traveled to Brazil to spread Judo abroad. He formally taught his Judo techniques to Carlos Gracie who in turn passed the art on to his brothers. The Gracie family continues to train and share the art throughout Brazil and the rest of the world. This evolution of the art has become internationally recognized as its own unique form known as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

 

At Valley Jiu-Jitsu our philosophy stems from our roots with Gracie Barra Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu where our Professors have taught us to emphasize a team oriented environment to provide practitioners with a system which is equally effective as it is fun. "Jiu-Jitsu for everyone"
