BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU TEACHES PRACTICAL SELF-DEFENSE TECHNIQUES
The thought of having to defend yourself against a bigger, stronger assailant might be scary, but Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is designed to help you overcome your fears.
By teaching students to take the fight to the ground where they can use chokeholds and other effective techniques to defend themselves, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu helps leverage even a small body into a huge problem for an attacker.
Best of all, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu builds strength and agility, both of which help in self-defense situations.

There’s no feeling quite like the feeling of knowing that your body is strong, agile, and able to do whatever you want it to do.
Studying Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gives students the knowledge that they can leverage their body’s strength to accomplish things they never thought possible.
Over time, it increases self-confidence and pride – and that carries over to work, home, and every area of your personal life.

My daughter started when she was 4 and it took some time for her to really understand and enjoy it because she was apprehensive starting something new. Coach Jennifer and Coach Miranda are amazing and nurturing yet firm coaches that really encouraged my daughter to come out of her shell, try out new skills and practice. My daughter is now 5 and truly enjoys her class. I highly recommend Inferno for your little and big kids.

I had my first kickboxing class last night. I have never done anything like that before. I really enjoyed it! I am so excited to go back! The staff was very friendly and helpful!

I have had the opportunity to attend many different schools all over the country and Inferno MMA is by far the best I have ever attended. The number of instructors, classes, and fellow BJJ classmates makes it a prime place to improve my skills as well as learn the art of BJJ. The vast amount of knowledge that is there makes it the ideal learning environment for the beginner as well as the experience BJJ student. I would highly recommend this school and facility to anyone looking to get started in the art or to expand there already existing knowledge.

FULL FITNESS FACILITY!
A full fitness facility is an invaluable asset for Jiu Jitsu practitioners. While mat time builds technique and timing, a well-equipped gym develops the physical foundation needed to excel: explosive power for takedowns and sweeps, muscular endurance for prolonged rolls, core strength for guard retention and pressure passing, and improved mobility to reduce injury risk. Access to weights, cardio equipment, and recovery tools allows grapplers to train more intelligently, get stronger without adding unnecessary bulk, and maintain peak conditioning year-round. For serious Jiu Jitsu athletes, the combination of mats and a our fitness facility creates the ultimate training environment.
