Halifax Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Society

If you ever had a doubt about trying Jiujitsu because you thought it might be too tough or people would go hard on you, It is completely the opposite; people are super nice and instructors will always make sure you are enjoying your experience. You can tell they are in it because they love the sport, the people, the game and nothing else. More...

Halifax BJJ Society has been the highlight of 2019. Since starting, I have almost negated 5 years of chronic pain, built long lasting ans strong friendships, and have gone miles beyond my comfort zone. This facility is clean, secure, inclusive, humble, and filled with passionate and joyful instructors. My love for this place is BEYOND. I have recently moved 45 minutes outside of the city but still drive in to train 4 - 5 days a week. More...

I had been away from martial arts for almost a decade and decided to try this gym out. The atmosphere when I walked in was energetic and enthusiastic. After several classes with most of the instructors, I found there was a consistency of high quality in instruction. The format of the Fundamentals classes is typically broken down into a warm up that promotes integration of core muscle strength, solo jujitsu drills to build bodily orientation and spacial awareness as you tumble, two basic techniques that explore the offensive and defensive of a particular position/joint lock/choke, and positional drills that will practically lend themselves to full on sparing. The Fundamental classes feel like an effective on ramp to get a new jujitsu practitioner up to speed with what is expected to be encountered during a sparing session. Based on the variety of classes offered and the competition experience of the instructors, it seems like it is a gym that will easily grow with a practitioner that is looking to develop their skills to a higher level. I personally look forward to training here as my path as a jujitsu player unfolds. As for other students, I have found that every partner I have been paired with to-date has been exceptional. There is a mutual attitude of wanting each other to better themselves as practitioners, and there is plenty of excellent constructive feedback through the class. Coming here to train is definitely a high point to my week. More...
