Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a martial arts and combat sports system that teaches a smaller person how to defend against someone larger, using leverage and technique. Known for its ground-fighting techniques, gaining position to apply chokes, holds, and locks. In BJJ, there are no striking, kicking or punching involved, and the goal to control your opponent on the ground.
When you enroll your child in our Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes at Grey Wolf BJJ, your child will receive a lifetime of benefits. Our Kids' Jiu-Jitsu program offers them the physical fitness, self-confidence, discipline, and respect from their peers and adults alike. Your child will also develop physical awareness of coordination, balance, and flexibility.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu focuses on relying on proper technique based on leverage to gain a superior position and eventually submitting them with chokeholds and joint locks. Many real-life examples have shown that most street confrontations end up on the ground. You will learn and practice submissions, escapes, immobilizing an attacker on the ground.

It's been a long time since the last time it rained in 2021. With this summer's heat reaching over 110*, we welcome the rain that finally came today. Driving over the Clackamas, Oregon on the wet road, we were all excited to enter the tournament center. One of our competitor set the pace, with the Fastest Women's Submission in this tournament at 28 seconds on her first match.

Would 100% recommend. I have never been to a place full of such helpful and all around amazing people. Professor Mike is a great teacher and you can really tell how passionate and dedicated he is. He is also always willing to answer questions for anyone who may still be confused about what's going on in class. All in all, I encourage anyone reading this to give this place a visit if you haven't yet, I am confident that you won't regret it.

Grey wolf is a very clean, welcoming, and respectful environment. Everyone is amazing and like a big family. Especially Mike, he is a great coach/professor. I can't imagine ever training anywhere else. I originally found Grey wolf bjj because it was close to my house. I've since moved and live twenty minutes away but I will continue to make the drive, it's definitely worth it. If you are looking for somewhere to train, Grey Wolf Bjj is definitely a good place to start :)

Just recently began my BJJ journey with Professor Yi at Grey Wolf BJJ. Everyone there is so welcoming! Although I have only attended two classes so far, Professor Yi's teaching has been clear, informative, and easily absorbed. One thing that stands out about Grey Wolf BJJ is the mutual respect between Prof. Yi and his students, and amongst the students themselves. The hierarchical organization of the ranking system does not inhibit learning at Grey Wolf because Prof. Yi respects his students as both growing practitioners and as individuals to the same degree his students respect him.
