Built to
perform.

Competing asks more of you than a regular class. This program prepares you for every part of it — body, mind, and game plan.

01

Competition Strategy

Game plans, scoring, and making smart decisions under the rules — so you know what to do before the match starts.

02

Drilling Under Fatigue

Technique that holds up when you're tired, because that's when matches are won and lost.

03

Live Rounds

Rounds with real intensity, so the pace of competition never catches you by surprise.

04

Mental Preparation

Managing nerves, staying focused, and performing under pressure when it counts.

Ready for
the next step.

The competition team is for students who want to test their Jiu-Jitsu on the mat — in the Gi, in No-Gi, or both.
