IN JIUJITSU proudly serving East Bridgewater

IN(忍) translates to patience. Patience is one of the key virtues in BJJ. Unlike other martial arts, in BJJ it takes on average a minimum of 7-10 years to journey from white belt to black belt. The character 者 translates to person. When the two characters are together it reads “ninja” or “shinobi”, literally translating to person of patience.
BJJ (The Gentle Art) is not about beating someone up or “choking” them.
BJJ is about overcoming obstacles that seem bigger than you are through self-discipline, perseverance, character, respect, hard work and the will to never give up.

Every student gets good at BJJ, just not at the same time.

Progression in BJJ is not measured by how big and bad someone is, or how many people a student can tap or beat.
We reward students based on their discipline, respect, determination, commitment and focus ON AND OFF the mats.

Being good at Brazilian Jiu Jitsu or “fighting” is just a byproduct of the life skills and traits that are forged on the mats during training.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a great way to learn valuable life skills because the things that it takes to get good at Jiu-Jitsu are the very same things that it takes to be successful in life, such as self-discipline, focus, self-respect, empathy and courtesy for others, etc.

The way you react under stressful situations (i.e.: someone trying to hold you down on the ground or take you down and choke you out) during training translates to real life situations.
A student who panics during these sessions usually has a hard time keeping their composure at the face of adversity off the mats as well.
A student who stays calm during these sessions are more likely to keep their composure during times of frustration and pressure.

Our weekly practices will provide you with a dynamic controlled mix of physical and intellectual skills, interaction with other students, and the opportunity to learn to lose and win with honor and respect for one another. This variety of experiences offers plenty of opportunities for life lessons to be taught and learned.

The inner strength and confidence that come from successfully handling adversity are the foundation to accomplishing many of the larger goals in life. Knowing you can do it, is an advantage that will last a lifetime.
