Our Judo/Wrestling for Jiu-Jitsu classes seamlessly integrate the dynamic throws and explosive takedowns of Judo with the ground control, pressure, and positional dominance of Wrestling, creating a well-rounded and highly effective approach to martial arts training. Designed for practitioners who want to sharpen their stand-up game, this class focuses on bridging the gap between getting an opponent to the ground and controlling the match once you’re there. Whether you’re new to takedowns or looking to refine your existing skills, our program offers techniques that complement and enhance your Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
Each session begins with a warm-up tailored to improve mobility, balance, and explosive movement. You’ll learn a variety of Judo techniques such as hip throws, foot sweeps, and trips, along with Wrestling staples like double-leg takedowns, single-leg attacks, and snap-downs. The instruction breaks each movement into clear, digestible steps, allowing you to focus on proper mechanics and timing. Situational drilling helps reinforce these skills, ensuring you can execute them smoothly under pressure.
We also emphasize transitions from standing to ground, teaching how to secure dominant positions or quickly move into submissions once the fight hits the mat. Safety is prioritized, with proper falling and breakfall techniques taught to reduce injury risk. Live, controlled sparring rounds give you the chance to test your takedowns and defenses against resisting partners in a supportive environment.
This class is ideal for BJJ athletes who want to expand beyond guard pulling and develop a more complete game, as well as for competitors seeking an edge in tournaments where takedowns score valuable points. By blending Judo’s fluidity with Wrestling’s relentless pressure, you’ll gain the confidence, skill, and versatility to dictate where the match takes place—standing or on the ground.
