Benefits of training
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu training offers many benefits. The ones listed below aren’t all you can expect, but they are some great reasons to start.
Learn practical and effective techniques to safely subdue, control, and attack hostile opponents and learn the advantages of your body and style.
Join a welcoming community where members support and motivate each other. Build lasting friendships through shared resilience.
Hate cardio? BJJ is a full-body HIIT workout that enhances strength, flexibility, and cardio while also improving focus and resilience.
You either win or you learn. Training helps foster resilience, humility, and discipline. You’ll see gains mentally, physically, and emotionally.
Suitable for all ages and skill levels, competitions are great opportunities to up your game and meet (and choke!) new people.
Improve stress tolerance, strategic thinking, and problem-solving while losing weight and having fun. BJJ is for everyone!
For ages 4 and up
for ages 13 & up
Learn and drill fundamental and advanced techniques, get 1-on-1 attention from instructors and advanced belts, and the most fun part of all—rolling at the end of class! Also include fundamentals and competition prep classes.
Technique-focused classes designed for getting white belts up to speed and drilling the little details. These classes are drill-only.
Prepare for competition with advanced training and sparring to make sure you’re ready for anything on competition day.
for ages 4–12
The goal of our kids program is to teach kids the building blocks of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in a safe and fun environment while also helping to build self-discipline, focus, and physical fitness.
Note: Ages 4–6 and 7–12 are in separate classes.

I've known and trained with both Mikes for years. They have great Jiujitsu, and the right attitude for teaching--egos are the enemy of getting better. They know this and exemplify it. The training at A-Force is challenging, insightful, cooperative, and fun. Give it a go!

First off, the gym at Aforce is very clean, which is always a huge plus. Mike and the other coaches are welcoming, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable of the arts! The gym is constantly growing and they do a great job of bringing in a wide range of talent and techniques. I can’t recommend them enough, not only as a team and mentors, but family!!
