Class Description:
Jiu Jitsu is the world’s fastest growing martial art and for good reason! Since time immemorial martial arts have been born from the promise of giving the weak tools to overcome the strong. Everyone loves this idea, it has a special place in society and the human psyche! But is it true? Guess what, in the case of jiu jitsu....it is! If you want to see how true it is then come see for yourself! No experience, no athleticism, no tools needed.

Free Classes at Snowblind Jiu Jitsu for June:
Every June we remember that protecting ourselves, our friends, and our family is an act of resistance. This year we are facing the largest increase in attacks on the LGBTQ+ community in recent memory. So beginning this year I am going to offer free training to anyone who wants to join us during June. This offer isn’t about being gay, trans, queer or anything else. We welcome allies, we build community, we are a MOVEMENT. We want to show that we can and will stand up for ourselves and each other. This is about taking back the idea of personal agency and stripping away the image of only the “alpha bro” being strong. Come join us and find out that you too can JUST STAND UP.
