| PROGRAMS Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) Adults: A martial art and combat sport that focuses on grappling especially ground fighting with the goal of gaining a dominant position using joint locks and choke holds to force an opponent to submit. Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian blend of martial art, game, and dance created by enslaved Africans in Brazil during the 16th Century. Participants form a roda (circle) and take turns playing instruments, singing, and sparring in pairs in the center of the circle. The game is marked by fluid acrobatic play, feints, and extensive use of groundwork, as well as sweeps, kicks, and headbutts. Less frequently-used techniques include elbow-strikes, slaps, punches, and body-throws. Capoeira has evolved from the mother form, now referred to as capoeira angola, and now includes two other forms known as capoeira regional and the ever-evolving capoeira contemporânea. Muay Thai (Thai Boxing): Known as the art of “eight limbs”. One uses the hands, shins, elbows and knees as part of their arsenal. Thus Muay Thai allows one to execute strikes using eight points of contact. Women’s Self Defense: Being stereotypically categorized as the so-called “weaker sex”, we teach women effectively how to eliminate their false sense of security by providing training techniques in order to help ward off an unexpected attack.
