Rollstar Jiu Jitsu & Self Defense

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or BJJ is a martial art and combat sport that focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting. It is a derivative of early 20th century Kodokan Judo which was itself then a recently-developed system (founded in 1882), based on multiple schools of Japanese Jiu-Jitsu later modified and further developed by the famous Gracie Family of Brazil.

Our Kids Jiu Jitsu and Self Defense program is structured to unleash your child's full potential and help them build the confidence and strength they need to overcome any obstacle. During their training, your child will be able to progress at their very own pace. We focus on key elements that will aid them in their development in becoming intelligent, productive adults such as respect discipline and leadership skills.

Our goal is to take the inexperienced to a point where they feel confident and ready to defend themselves in a variety of threatening situations. This class focuses on repeat drilling and application of learned techniques to help our athletes improve their speed, accuracy, and efficiency.

Not just for beginners, our Fundamentals class focuses on the foundational positions and techniques of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu that all level athletes need to master.A must-have for self-defense and sport training! Our Sport Class combines advanced techniques with enhanced fundamental movements to allow students a deeper exploration of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

A moment is all it takes for someone to attack. And when they do, seconds can make the difference between suffering an assault and creating an escape. Mere seconds are all that stand between becoming a victim and walking away a survivor! We can bring our team to your facility or you are welcome to host an event at our academy in Hackensack, NJ.

The Brazilian Jiu Jitsu program focuses exclusively on learning the technical concepts of the art from a self-defense and competition perspective. You will learn the major and most effective techniques that will enable you to effectively transition from the standing position to the ground. The Maryland program is led by Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt, Professor, Dr. Hernan Guadalupe, MMACS.
