Classes
Regular Weekly Classes
We hold our class from 7-9pm near the border of the Beach area of Toronto and Scarborough. Specifically we are close to Victoria Park Ave on Kingston Road.
Our class has a high ratio of instructors to students. There are usually at least 2 instructors present, and often we have 4 instructors in our small classes. Everyone gets personal attention.
We start with a quick stretch to get our bodies ready to move. We also stretch our small joints because British Jiu Jitsu involves a lot of small joint manipulation.
We teach a variety of techniques in every class. We focus on reality-based self defense. We teach our students how to END an attack. Compared to other arts that teach you how to “fight”, we are very different. We don’t care to fight. We want the fight to be either: 1) avoided; or 2) over before the attacker knows what happened.
Fitness Requirements?
We don’t require you to be physically fit. We encourage it for your own health, but we have a wide variety of fitness levels among our students and British Jiu Jitsu is a system that will work for you no matter what your size, level of fitness, or strength. We stay away from complicated stuff. We’re about simplicity and effectiveness to save your life, or safe the life of someone you love.
Laughter and Fun
We take our training seriously, but we are also out to have a good laugh together. We all get along, we share laughs with each other, and we all look forward to the weekly class. Afterwards, many of us head out to a local pub (no Jiu Jitsu at the pub!). If you join us as a student, you are welcome to join us after class too.

Are you able to teach a 7 year old child?
Hey Adam
I was just wondering wjhat the cost to Police for your classes? I also would like to know if you have more than one class a week??
Hi Mike,
Adam may be able to do private lessons for a 7-year old (you can ask him directly), but it wouldn’t be suitable for class. It’s a class of adults, primarily. Sometimes we get students as young as 15-16, but that’s about as low as we go just to make sure safety / student matchup is suitable.
I want to find out more about this type of defense martial arts
I guess you would call it how many classes do you have a week what is the cost and do you get any kind of belt like black,
brown, that sort of thing…

Currently classes are held once per week. Contact Adam@BritishJiuJitsu.com for details on how to get started. Class is all about real self defence not sport. Levels are basic / intermediate / advanced.
