Itinerary:
Have you wanted to try Brazilian Jiu Jitsu or are interested in self defense but didn't know where to start? I'm attending a class with a well known Brown Belt Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Instructor and competitor. He is offering a class focusing on a few self defense techniques next friday and there are a few open spots. No special equipment is needed beyond shorts and a tshirt. Experience is not neccessary and it is open to all fitness levels beginner or experienced but you should be prepared and able to take a few bumps and bruises.

Required Items to Bring:
Shorts and tshirt or a jiu jitsu gi

Carpool Cost: Approximate vehicle expense for this event is $2.58 (calculated at total Km * $0.258, effective Friday, March 29, 2024).

Notes:
This is not a fitness class, this is an introduction to Brazilian Jiu Jitsu focusing on self defense techniques. Jui Jitsu and self defense classes require that you have close physical contact with other participants. While participants are required to respect and observe safe practices at all times bumps and bruises must be anticipated. You be comfortable and prepared for these situations. I will contact everyone who signs up for the event to assess your personal needs and to arrange carpool and alternate directions to the venue. If you are interested in this event but cannot attend please email me and I will hold this event again at a later date.
