Truly honoured to award Vitaly, Eb, and Chris their black belts. The black belt is a symbol of perseverance and technical proficiency, however, it is not the end but the first step on a new path. Congratulations to AJJ’s newest black belts!!

Cubs + Youth Spring Promotion 2026

Big congratulations to our mighty crew of cubs and youth students who levelled up on Saturday! As much as all of the coaches were excited to award individuals with well earned promotions… What we all truly admire is how these kids show up consistently, put in a diligent effort, and how they positively support each other on and off the mats.
