Brigada Jiu-Jitsu Brsilien Bjj is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) school located in the Centre-Sud area of Montreal. Offering 2 free trial classes, the school focuses on the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, derived from techniques of Judo and Japanese Jiu-Jitsu. Introduced to Brazil in the 1920s by Mitsuyo Mada and popularized by the Gracie family in the 1950s, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has gained international recognition since the 1990s.
Unlike traditional martial arts that focus on standing combat using punches and kicks, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a ground-based sport that emphasizes self-defence techniques against larger and stronger opponents without the use of strikes. The Brigada team is passionate about performance and fun, offering BJJ classes for children, teenagers, and adults in a welcoming environment for those seeking new challenges, competition, or simply wanting to get in shape.
Brigada BJJ's classes cater to different age groups and levels of experience, providing a warm and supportive atmosphere for students to learn and grow. Led by experienced instructors like Nikola Smith, who holds a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under Koji Murakami, the school focuses on teaching foundational techniques, strategies, and goal-setting to help students progress and achieve their highest potential.
With a structured curriculum designed to build skills over time, Brigada BJJ aims to help students develop physical fitness, mental discipline, and self-confidence through the practice of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Whether you're looking to compete at a high level or simply improve your overall well-being, Brigada Jiu-Jitsu Brsilien Bjj provides a supportive community and expert instruction to help you reach your goals.
