MARTIAL ARTS FOR BOTH CHILDREN AND ADULTS!

Latest Women’s P.O.W.E.R.© Self Defense Class

On Saturday, January 7th, Fight to Win Lake Norman hosted our latest Women’s P.O.W.E.R.© Self Defense Seminar. We had an awesome group of ladies on the mat, simple techniques & strategies to protect themselves. P.O.W.E.R.© stands for Protection Oriented Women’s Efficient Response, and is designed to give women a basic introduction to the leverage-based techniques of Gracie Jiu-jitsu, which give them the best opportunity to effectively defend themselves against a violent assault, even against a larger, stronger assailant. If you’re interested in attending one of our Women’s P.O.W.E.R.© Seminars, please contact us for more information on our next class offering. Checkout the highlight video below from our last class!

About our Jiu-jitsu programs

Kids/Teens Gracie Jiu-jitsu (Self Defense)
in Palmyra

Our Kids Royce Gracie Jiu-jitsu program in Palmyra will help your child to develop confidence, respect, focus, and leadership, while learning practical self-defense skills that will stay with them for the rest of their lives! Our fun & engaging Kids Jiu-jitsu classes will teach your child to work towards & achieve goals, giving them the fundamental, realistic techniques needed to keep themselves and others safe, while enhancing their physical fitness, agility, coordination, developing positive character traits & healthy lifestyle habits, and learning to remain calm & solve problems under pressure. A primary component of our program is the seamless integration of the Code of the Jiu-jitsu Warrior, the 7-5-3 Code, that introduces your children to the Philosophy of Royce Gracie Jiu-jitsu.

Jiu-jitsu is the most comprehensive and effective system of self- defense for kids because it is based upon leverage and technique that gives the much smaller and weaker person - kids, the most realistic chance to avoid, survive, and escape a realistic encounter. It also allows them to possibly control their attacker without hurting them; an essential self-defense trait that protects our children in the inevitable aftermath of a self-defense altercation in today's society of 'zero tolerance' fighting policies, civil lawsuits, and politicization of criminal prosecutions.

We teach kids a step-by-step system of how to approach bullying from before, during, and after with a complete system and roadmap to eliminate bullying. In addition, kids learn specific verbal and physical techniques and strategies to confidently and effectively deal with bullying. Our program is a necessary life skill that goes way beyond any hobby or sport, and we are very straightforward, direct, and honest in our expertise and focus: we understand and teach self-defense. All while having TONS of fun in our safe & structured program. Take the first step today & learn more about our exciting Royce Gracie Jiu-jitsu (self-defense) classes for kids in Palmyra!

Adults Gracie Jiu-jitsu (Self Defense)
in Palmyra

Adults of ALL ages & ability levels can benefit from our Gracie Jiu-jitsu (self-defense) program! Our mission and expertise is self-defense. Plain and simple. The comprehensive system of self-defense promulgated by Grandmaster Helio Gracie has been largely eliminated from the overwhelming majority of modern sport 'bjj' schools, and Royce Gracie leads the way - on the front lines - to unabashedly continue his father's legacy of Gracie Jiu-jitsu as a martial art of self-defense. Royce Gracie does not teach techniques to students that would not work in a real street fight encounter or self-defense situation.

Adults can attend our class, train cooperatively at their own pace with a friendly, helpful training partner, and go home safe and work the next day. With a focus on realistic, practical self-defense techniques designed to enable a smaller, unathletic, weaker individual to survive the most common of realistic attacks - not to win sport tournaments or medals, students learn to efficiently & effectively keep themselves safe & control their opponent without harming them - unless they choose to do so.

The aftermath of a self-defense encounter is often just as important as the technique itself, and students are taught the true power of Gracie Jiu-jitsu - including it's Philosophy, Striking, and Stand Up Self Defense to Surprise Attacks curriculum - essential elements of Gracie Jiu-jitsu that have been overwhelmingly eliminated and no longer taught in most modern sport 'bjj' schools. Adults follow a structured curriculum of organized lesson plans and new students are guided step-by-step through the core positions & techniques of Royce Gracie Jiu-jitsu in our Fundamentals classes, and continue to hone & refine their skills in our Mastery classes as they gain experience.

As an added benefit, most of our students see significant improvement in their overall health & fitness level-increasing their muscular strength, cardiovascular endurance, coordination, and mobility through training. All in a safe, positive, encouraging, helpful, & friendly atmosphere! If you're looking for a great way to get in shape quickly & learn to defend yourself in any situation, contact us today to learn how our Adult Royce Gracie Jiu-Jitsu (self-defense) classes in Palmyra can benefit you!

Women's Self Defense & Fitness Striking Group Class

Royce Gracie Jiu-jitsu (self defense) consists of 5 elements - 1) Striking, 2) Philosophy, 3) Stand Up Defenses to Surprise Attacks, 4) Self Defense Grappling, and 5) Throwing/Takedowns.

Most self defense situations can be avoided with the proper Philosophy, however, this takes practice and an authentic, fundamental understanding of self defense! We apply a deep knowledge and understanding of real life self defense encounters and situations to train women the most practical, effective, and comprehensive approach to self defense, beginning with our Philosophy of situational awareness (Zanshin), to Grandmaster Helio Gracie's system of avoiding and de-escalating face to face confrontations, all the way to the development of reflexive responses to the most common, realistic types of surprise physical attacks where most every encounter begins - standing on your feet!

Striking is also an imperative aspect of a comprehensive self defense system in the many realistic self defense scenarios where you want to AVOID EVER going to the ground, so we teach a very focused curriculum of the most effective striking techniques that anyone can learn in an EXTREMELY FUN and HIGH ENERGY workout routine on Saturday mornings, no gi or uniform required...just comfortable workout clothes!

Each Women's Self Defense & Fitness Striking class is taught by Royce Gracie's direct black belt and each class consists of a 25 minute introduction to easy, simple, basic self defense techniques, drilling these techniques with a cooperative female partner, followed by 25 minutes of fun, high energy, intense workout of striking techniques on pads in timed rounds with loud, fun workout music!

These are powerful, authentic, legitimate striking techniques pulled directly from our self defense striking curriculum!
