About
Located in Dania Beach, between Hollywood and Fort Lauderdale, Nova Uniao South Florida offers Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for adults and kids. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a martial art which focuses on grappling. The intent of the art is to gain dominance over your opponent on the ground and uses leverage to get them to submit. By using leverage it allows a small, weaker person to subdue a much large and stronger attacker.
Many people struggle to find a way to stay committed to a normal workout routine, whereas BJJ is a fun way to stay fit and get tough. In addition to building confidence and self defense, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu provides a great physical workout by increasesing endurance and strength.
At Nova Uniao South Florida we promote a team atmosphere where we support one another in and out of class. When first starting in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu we support each person’s own capability. However, it is recommended to attend at least 3 times weekly in order to progress at the desired rate.
