Master Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu & Grappling in Bengaluru
Real technique over brute force. Whether you are here for self-defense or competition, we drill the ground game until it is second nature.
A great shot from a BJJ rolling session. This shows the intensity and focus required in grappling. We constantly work on winning these small moments, improving our position, and looking for the submission.
In Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, we learn to be comfortable in uncomfortable spots. This video shows a live rolling session where students are working on escapes and positional control. Mastering these grappling techniques is key to controlling a fight on the ground.
Losing a roll or a position is just part of learning jiu-jitsu. This video shows a grappling exchange where the focus is on learning from mistakes. Every failure on the mat is a step toward getting better.
I believe in teaching practical self-defense to everyone, including kids. Here, I am demonstrating how to apply a Rear Naked Choke (RNC) safely, followed by a student drill. My youth MMA program is all about building confidence and discipline.
Here we are drilling a guard pass, a fundamental BJJ technique. The goal is to get past the opponent's legs to a more dominant position. Consistent drilling like this makes the movements second nature.
This video breaks down a heel hook defense. Learning how to safely escape dangerous submissions is just as important as learning how to apply them. We practice these technical grappling escapes until they become instinct.
A quick look at our training, from BJJ grappling on the mats to striking drills. We train all aspects of mixed martial arts to be well-rounded fighters.
A moment from our youth jiu-jitsu class. I'm explaining a position to the kids. It’s amazing to see them focused and learning the art.
About Grappling & Jiu-Jitsu: The Ground Game
When you roll on our mats, you learn to handle the pressure that comes with being stuck in a bad position. We don't skip the basics here—you drill escapes, guard passes, and submissions until they feel natural, regardless of your size or strength.
Technique beats brute force, every single time. My grappling classes are designed for anyone willing to put in the work—from total beginners to those training for the All India Open. We cover the full spectrum, including Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (Gi and No-Gi) and wrestling drills, because being a complete fighter means being comfortable on the ground.
Why the Ground Game Matters
In real-life scenarios and MMA, fights often end up on the floor. My goal is to make you comfortable when things get uncomfortable. We focus on:
- Positional Control: Understanding how to dominate from the top and survive from the bottom.
- Submission Defense: Learning how to stay safe while setting up your own counters.
- Wrestling for MMA: Taking the fight where you want it to go.
Training Environment
We train at 1026 MMA Academy in Yelahanka and Amrutahalli, and at Reign MMA in HBR Layout. The facility is equipped with 25mm EVA interlocking puzzle mats specifically for takedowns and ground work. There is no AC, but we have natural ventilation and fans—it gets hot, we sweat, and we get better. That is the nature of the sport.
Who This Is For
You do not need to be an athlete to start. I coach kids, women, and adults who want to learn discipline and confidence. If you show up, I will teach you. We are a crew that pushes each other to get better every day. If you are ready to learn the art of grappling and want to join a community that actually has your back, show up for a session. Oss.
