What Martial Arts Do We Teach?
Our martial arts training focuses on two highly effective systems:
Krav Maga for Self Defence
Krav Maga is a modern self defence system developed for real-world situations. It teaches awareness, avoidance, and practical techniques that work under pressure. This makes it ideal for adults in Brentwood who want effective personal protection skills rather than sport-based competition training.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for Control and Technique
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu focuses on grappling, positioning, and control. It teaches you how to manage close-contact situations safely using leverage and technique rather than strength. Many real-world confrontations end up at close range, making Jiu-Jitsu a valuable part of martial arts training.
Together, these disciplines create a well-rounded approach to martial arts and self defence.
