BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU

What is BJJ

Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) is a functional combat sport focusing mainly on ground fighting and grappling. The main aim is to get the fight to the ground and defeat your opponent by joint locks or chokes. Sounds cruel? It absolutely is not! Training Brazilian jiu-jitsu is superfun, training sessions are safe, exciting and challenging to the body and mind. BJJ classes are a great way to improve your physical health, get in shape, meet other nice people and learn and practice functional self-defense in a recreational setting.

Tartu Fightsport Gym Võimla was the first ever BJJ gym in Estonia. Here in Tartu we started training Brazilian jiu-jitsu in 2003.

During these years we have learned a lot about the sport, teaching and motivating our students, but the main core of the classes has stayed the same – our classes are functional, “real”, safe to the participants, we have the best BJJ coaches in town and one of the best members community in the world :)
