Balham's Home of Authentic Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is the traditional form of the art, trained in the Gi (kimono). Using grips on the jacket and sleeves, you learn how to control, break balance, and apply technique with precision, not strength. The Gi slows things down, allowing you to develop real understanding, strong fundamentals, and attention to detail that carries across all areas of Jiu-Jitsu.

NoGi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a faster, more dynamic form of grappling, trained without the traditional uniform. With no grips on clothing, control comes from positioning, movement, timing, and pressure. The pace is quicker, forcing you to react, adjust, and stay connected at all times, developing a more fluid, athletic style closely linked to wrestling and MMA.
