Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Ryer Martial Arts Academy is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu sub-affiliate school of Master Pedro Sauer's Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Association and an affiliate school of Sensei Sonny Achille's Steel City Martial Arts.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a grappling-based martial art.  It has become a staple art in mixed martial arts and is largely credited for bringing widespread attention to the importance of ground fighting.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu can be practiced for self-defense, sport, and fitness.                                                           

Students of Ryer Martial Arts Academy's Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program are introduced to a comprehensive system of standing and ground defense techniques utilizing rules of leverage.  The wide variety of these techniques and their counters are to manipulate the opponent into a dominant position on the ground.  Students spend considerable practice effectively learning to use the guard position to defend oneself from bottom and then pass the guard to dominate from a top position like side control and mount.

Training methods in our Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program include technique drills, isolation sparring, and full sparring.  Students are able to train realistically in a safe and controlled environment.  Sparring, commonly referred to as "rolling", plays a major role in our training.

Notwithstanding it's self-defense potential, our Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program offers a tremendous workout!

It emphasizes aerobic and anaerobic conditioning, making it an enjoyable workout for both women and men regardless of athletic ability.  You will get lean; increase your endurance and flexibility; and learn one of the most proven martial arts disciplines.

Here is what Master Pedro Sauer, an 8th Degree Red/ Black Belt under Grandmaster Helio Gracie and Master Rickson Gracie, thinks of our Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Program.

"Joshua Ryer at Ryer Martial Arts Academy is the place for you to train in
Gracie Jiu-Jitsu.  He represents the high standards of the Pedro Sauer Association and Sonny Achille at Steel City Martial Arts.  You are lucky to train with him."
~ Master Pedro Sauer
