Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in St. Paul
WHAT IS BJJ?

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or BJJ is a martial art based on grappling and ground fighting. There is extreme focus and detail on the skill of controlling your opponent through techniques that force him or her to submit. BJJ is known in the martial arts community as the “gentle art”. This means that a smaller and weaker person can use leverage and submissions (chokes, locks) to defend him or herself against a bigger and stronger opponent. The origins are in Judo (Newaza) and Japanese Jujutsu, but was adapted and modified by Carlos Gracie and his family.

Why Should I Start Training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu?

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is for everybody. Regardless of age, gender or fitness level, practically anyone can begin to train.

You will get in the best shape of your life. If you find that going to the gym and lifting weights and doing cardio is boring, then BJJ is the best option for you.

When you are on the mats, every single muscle in your body, even ones you didn’t know you had will be worked. It’s one of the few martial arts where you can train at 100% without getting seriously injured. You will shed pounds quickly.

This is a game of chess that will teach you how to apply physical and mental strength in a controlled manner. The number of techniques that you will learn are limitless. You will train against many different styles of Jiu-Jitsu and it will help you to stay out of your comfort zone so you can continue to grow. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a lifestyle martial art that can be practiced well into old age. In fact, the founding father of BJJ, Helio Gracie, practiced Jiu-Jitsu until his death at 95 years old.

In addition, it will also make you a better person. The life lessons learned on and off the mat are invaluable. They will help you to become a better leader, learn self-defense, increase your confidence, gain more discipline and persevere.

Testimonials

"My BJJ journey has grown exponentially since I have returned to Bellum. I have been to other gyms and the care and personal instruction I receive here from each instructor is phenomenal. Each instructor makes it their goal to have a one on ones as much as possible during class so we understand each technique."

- Kevin

"Out of shape and looking for something to relieve stress and help motivate me to take better care of myself mentally and physically, I decided to try BJJ. I visited other places, but once I dropped in to Bellum I knew I wanted to join. The team is really welcoming and encouraging, especially to beginners. Instruction is high level, the facility is nice, and classes are a lot of fun. BJJ is hard work but incredibly rewarding. It doesn’t hurt that I dropped 50 lbs in my first few months training either. Bellum is an awesome gym and a great place to train!"

- Jonathan

"Bellum has changed my life, I thought that with me suffering from arthritis within both my knees I thought that I'd pretty bad at this. It turns out that I can perform very well under such pain. The professors have reminded me of my childhood teachings, “you'll never know if you don't try.” BJJ has opened my mind to a better form of fitness. I once thought that weight training was the best way to do exercise however, weight training doesn't offer you time to work with others and allowing you to know people better."

- Billy
