WHAT IS BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU?
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art and self-defence system focused on grappling, ground control, and technique - not size or strength. It teaches you how to neutralize larger opponents using leverage, positioning, and timing.
At Bayside BJJ, we teach this art in a way that’s safe, realistic, and empowering - whether your goal is self-defence, fitness, competition, or personal growth.
WHY BJJ?
In every class, you’ll build:
-
Practical self-defence skills that work in real situations.
-
Problem-solving ability under pressure.
-
Strength, mobility and fitness.
-
Confidence in your body and mind. As you train, your body adapts.
​You’ll gain strength, flexibility, and endurance - often without realizing it. Many students also find BJJ becomes a core part of their lifestyle and a powerful way to manage stress and improve focus.
