Bronx Jiu-Jitsu

Many academies that teach the gentle art often pride themselves as having an encouraging and family like atmosphere, but I can attest to the truthfulness of these statements in regards to my academy, Bronx Jiu-Jitsu. I started my journey with a Group On trial and never looked back. I was hooked from the moment I stepped foot onto the mats. I went from taking 2 classes a week to, at times, taking 9 classes a week. The superb teaching abilities by Professor Junior Ortega, Coach Nate and Fernando are a godsend. Some BJJ teachers are amazing to watch on the mats, but the Bronx Jiu-Jitsu coaches are not only highly skilled, their ability to teach is what sets them apart. They have the ability to teach 1 move 100 different ways depending on the student.

When you walk through the doors of Bronx Jiu-Jitsu for the first time you will not feel intimated, but instead welcomed as if you have been a member for years. Having dealt with anxiety for most of my life you could imagine what it was like to walk into a new space filled with men and women who are capable of submitting you in 2.5 seconds or less. But, at Bronx Jiu-Jitsu, you will be reassured and guided to the point you could relax, learn and become a proper Jiujiteiro. The only thing they ask of you is that you remain dedicated even through the challenging times. As with anything in life, persistence is the secret to becoming great.

For those interested in competing and for the Jiu-Jitsu hobbyist: Bronx Jiu-Jitsu will give you the foundation and expertise needed to excel in either direction. BJJ has replaced a void in my life that has been missing for many years and I can honestly say I am addicted. I have never competed in anything until I started training at Bronx Jiu-Jitsu. My teammates and coaches have given me a new sense of pride in my abilities and have given me the confidence I needed to not only have competed after only 3 months of training, but also set a fire inside me to compete more and more. When people say Jiu-Jitsu is a lifestyle you have to understand that it truly is—you are a Jiujiteiro on and off the mats. You will be healthier, happier and able to defend yourself in ways you never thought possible. Bronx Jiu-Jitsu will change your life if you allow it to. Just be ready to put in work.
