Adult Brazilian Jiu Jitsu at Dan Hart Jiu Jitsu

Real Jiu Jitsu.
Real Results.

Our adult program is built on the Hidden Jiu Jitsu principles of Henry Akins — pressure-based fundamentals that work for anyone, regardless of size, strength, or athletic ability. Every class focuses on technique over athleticism.

Whether you're looking for self-defense, fitness, competition, or just a new challenge — this is where your journey begins. You'll train alongside a supportive community that pushes each other to get better every day.

At its core, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu teaches you how to control and neutralize a larger or stronger opponent using leverage, timing, and angles. The Gracie family proved this in the earliest UFC events, and the art has only evolved since. At Hart Jiu Jitsu, we stay true to those foundational principles while incorporating modern techniques and training methods.

Your First
Class

Your first class is free and requires zero experience. Just show up in comfortable workout clothes — a t-shirt and athletic shorts work perfectly. We have loaner Gis available if the class requires one.

You'll start with a warm-up, then learn fundamental techniques with a partner. Our coaches and experienced students will guide you through everything. You won't be thrown into full-speed sparring on day one — we ease you in at a pace that makes sense.

After class, you'll get a tour of the facility including our recovery amenities — sauna, cold plunge, red light therapy, and strength equipment. No pressure, no sales pitch. Just come train and see if it's the right fit.
