New York City 1 on 1 Personal Training Jiu Jitsu Lessons

Gotham Jiu Jitsu is offering a special type of class emphasizing the grappling portion of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and the self defense aspect of traditional Jiu Jitsu. These sessions are taught in the privacy of your home/office, or in Chelsea/Flatiron at Rich Barretta Studios.

In these classes you will learn the fundamentals of self-defense – including skills such as blocking, striking, defense against punches, escapes from grabs and ground defense. These classes are designed to teach real defense techniques for real life scenarios. Students are drilled in core movements on a regular basis until skills are instinctive. Students are encouraged to train while maintaining a safe and fun environment.

These are the same self defense techniques taught to all forms of government agencies.

Any tool, any trick, any move considered “dirty” in sport combat is encouraged here for true personal self-defense. On top of that, students are taught to recognize their own personal strengths and prepared to use them at any moment. This discipline results not only in improved safety, but also in increased self-awareness.

Our one on one self defense instruction is perfect for the busy New Yorker looking to increase their personal safety while getting a fantastic workout. Once practitioners begin to understand fundamentals and techniques, speed and intensity become a factor making each session a workout that improves cardio, speed, flexibility, and hand and eye coordination.
