PROGRAMS
From 4 years old.
RESILIENT KIDS
AGES 4 - 7
Our Resilient Kids programme starts from as young as 4 years old. Our goal in this programme is to instil in your child unshakable self-confidence, independence and threat awareness. This programme is strongly focused on teaching your child how to respond to intimidation, peer confrontation and bullying in a non-violent manner by asserting themselves and knowing when to use their techniques for self-defence. Your child will develop coordination, strength, and balance.
JUNIOR GRAPPLERS
AGES 8 - 14
Our Junior Grapplers program is strongly focused on self-defence and anti-bullying, and is a perfect follow-on from our Resilient Kids programme. Incorporating techniques taught in the adult curriculum, members are introduced to real-life scenarios and are taught to quickly de-escalate a physical confrontation in a non-violent manner. Through controlled sparring, your child will develop self-control, critical thinking, problem solving and confidence in their ability to defend themselves intelligently.
ADULTS
AGES 15+
No previous experience with martial arts is required to safely enjoy and learn the concepts of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and self defence. This programme is suitable for all fitness levels and is an engaging, fun and interactive learning experience. We ensure that the start of your journey is safe, easy to follow and optimised for success. You can expect to increase your fitness, flexibility and mobility while learning to defend yourself against the most common attacks faced in real-life scenarios.
STRUCTURE
FUNDAMENTALS
The fundamental program is suitable for all fitness levels and is an engaging, fun and interactive learning experience. Classes are designed to cover the fundamental concepts and techniques of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with application to both self-defence and sport. Classes are structured to include a warm-up, practice of the techniques with a partner and finally a reflex development drill that ties everything together in a logical manner. There is no live sparring in this division.
INTERMEDIATE
After completing the Fundamentals curriculum, students complete this module in preparation for their Blue belt promotion. Participants in this program also begin sparring and progress systematically to improve their understanding of more advanced concepts. Students begin to learn how to connect techniques and concepts, developing their unique style with the ability to test their growing knowledge with regular live sparring in a controlled environment and under the guidance of an experienced instructor.
ADVANCED
Suitable for practitioners who have graduated from the Fundamentals & Intermediate modules. These classes include more complex positional study and intense sparring. Participants in this program take a deep dive into the world of modern Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, with strong emphasis on competition, strategy, and fight psychology. You’ll learn techniques and concepts that reflect today’s evolving, modern Jiu-Jitsu game and train alongside the most experienced and active members of the team.
NOGI
Nogi is an exciting and fast-paced style of Jiu Jitsu which incorporates techniques from multiple submission grappling styles and throwing martial arts. With Brazilian Jiu Jitsu as its base, our Nogi program focuses on sport-based Jiu Jitsu for competition. In this program, members explore advanced concepts of submission grappling and are exposed to the most effective strategies and tactics being used by champions of the sport today.
COMPETITION
While every practitioner's Jiu-Jitsu odyssey is different, some are not satisfied with just the mental and physical health benefits offered by the sport. For those who yearn to test themselves in the arena, we offer an exclusive program to train competitors to represent Alliance in the national and international championship IBJJF circuit. Our competition program equips athletes with physical preparation and a competition mindset.
JUDO
Jiu Jitsu has its origins in Judo. Under the tutelage and guidance of a trained black belt instructor, our Judo program is specifically tailored to our Jiu Jitsu practice. As a purist academy, we pay homage to this beautiful martial art from which Jiu Jitsu was conceived. We offer our Judo program as a complementary and separate discipline to our Jiu Jitsu program, with a special emphasis on technique sets advantageous to Jiu Jitsu.
ALLIANCE TEACHING METHODOLOGY
Guided by the Alliance teaching methodology, all our classes are structured with clear outcomes and technical progressions. Students follow a defined learning path optimised for success and continuous development. Following the same learning path as countless Alliance black-belt world champions, our members are exposed to cutting-edge concepts under the tutelage of professional and trained instructors.
