Programs

Ukiyo Academy offers a variety of programs for all ages and skill levels, including Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Kids Jiu-Jitsu, and Women's Self-Defense. Our classes focus on fitness, self-defense, discipline, and mindfulness, providing a well-rounded approach to both physical and mental strength.

  • Foundational jiu-jitsu forms the bedrock of our training philosophy, ensuring that beginners grasp fundamental techniques and principles with clarity and precision. For experienced practitioners, our program offers continuous refinement and advanced strategies, catering to your evolving skills and goals. Whether you're starting fresh or seeking to deepen your expertise, our dedicated instructors provide the guidance and resources needed to excel in jiu-jitsu at every level of proficiency in a safe and supportive environment

  • Our self-defense program focuses on teaching practical techniques that prepare individuals for real-world situations. Participants learn essential skills such as situational awareness and physical techniques to defend against common threats. Through scenario-based training and controlled simulations, students develop the confidence and readiness to react calmly and decisively in potentially dangerous encounters. This program not only equips individuals with physical defense skills but also enhances mental preparedness, ensuring they are better prepared to protect themselves and others when it matters most.

  • Our kids' Jiu Jitsu classes combine fun, games, and essential techniques to keep young learners engaged while helping them develop important physical and mental skills. Through playful activities, kids build strength, coordination, and confidence while learning foundational Jiu Jitsu concepts.

    Classes are structured to introduce fundamental techniques in a safe, supportive environment, making it easy for kids to grasp complex concepts while having a great time.

    We emphasize teamwork, respect, and discipline, ensuring that every child not only improves their Jiu Jitsu skills but also grows in character.
