Back Mountain Jiu-Jitsu

Gym closed today Saturday 6/22 for competition

We have a lot of fun on these mats. Great work last night working from closed guard, setting up attacking angles and working through some subs. In Wrestle-Jitsu we focused on leg rides and power half’s when your partner pops their hips up. We’re grinding in here every night.

This is our 2024 schedule.
* Monday’s wrestle-jitsu class will emphasize portions of folk style wrestling and it’s applicability to BJJ. Much attention will be given to takedowns, scrambles, top control/pins and turtle escapes.
* Tuesdays fundamentals class is our most beginner friendly class, is only 30 minutes and will focus heavily on positional and submission escapes.
It runs concurrently to our striking for self-defense class which is taught in a separate room.
* Thursday’s Flow-Jitsu is a fun class designed to get you moving more smoothly and naturally from one position to the next.
* Saturday’s jiu-jitsu for self-defense teaches a real world approach to grappling in self-defense scenarios.
* Competition jiu-jitsu is by invitation only.

So proud of everyone who received promotions on Friday. Jess, Jackie and Dom have been training for over 2 years and Nate is an exceptional grappler. Congrats on receiving your blue belts! Kalyca and Mike, congrats on your second stripes on your blue belts. So proud of your work and progress. And LJ, congrats on your first ever stripe, amigo! Super excited for you all, well deserved.

Super proud of my student he’s been training with us for 2 years. He trains hard and has lost a significant chunk of weight and body fat. He’s also improved (and continues to improve) tremendously on the mats. Keep up the awesome work, Dom!
