Services
The Paradigm Jiu - Jitsu Academy is located in the industrial heart of Lowell, Massachusetts. For those on vacation or traveling from other areas we are located less than a half mile from 3 major highways. We also have an abundance of restaurants, hotels and stores within walking distance. We are privileged to be trusted with your personal information and will sell, rent or share any of your personal details in any way.
I intend to develop myself in a positive manner and avoid anything that could reduce my mental growth or my physical health. I intend to use what I learn in class constructively and defensively to help myself and others and never to be abusive or offensive. If we were to look up the definition of the word etiquette we would see this - "the customary code of polite behavior in society or among members of a particular profession or group."
There is a wide gap between the management of distance between self-defense and sport techniques. If you were to analyze video footage of any physical altercations that involved Jiu - Jitsu, you would undoubtedly notice a pattern of movements and techniques. These patterns make up the foundational elements, techniques and strategies that our beginner program focuses on.

I’ve been attending this academy for several months and I LOVE it. Their energy and love for the sport translate into all of their classes. They will push you to be the best you can be and celebrate all your victories with you. Cannot say enough nice things about them.

Possibly one of the best choices I've made in a long time. Paradigm has an inviting atmosphere that facilitates learning. I've only been going for a few months but I've seen a definite change in my confidence and health. The professor is knowledgeable, amicable, and always ready to help. I'd recommend Paradigm to friends, family, strangers, anybody willing to try something new really.

If you have any doubt or any thought holding you back from trying out Jiu Jitsu, TAKE THE FIRST STEP HERE. You won’t regret it!
Amazing community of people, family atmosphere. The facility is beautiful always clean and the brightness and plants all around make you feel uplifted and welcome.
Classes are fun, full of energy, insightful, empowering and so much more. Everyone is there to help each other and you can truly feel the welcoming atmosphere.

Fantastic academy. I have always wanted to do jiu jitsu for the longest time. I’m so glad that I signed up my daughter and myself here at the paradigm academy. Professor Joey is great with his teaching which really helped me with my confidence. Coach Corina is absolutely amazing with the kids class.

Most challenging and beneficial experience I’ve ever had. Each class is constantly pushing you physically and mentally. Professor Joey makes sure to support you when you need it, and force you to meet weaknesses head on when you hesitate to acknowledge them. I have been surrounded by a great, all-welcoming community where entire families can grow together. I truly enjoy every class and hope more people join so we can spread the joy of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

First of all, The Paradigm Academy is by far the cleanest, most well kept academy you will find. The daily cleaning and attention to even the tiniest detail is unmatched. I also love their use of plants to bring in fresh air and beauty all around us.
Jiu-jitsu was not something I ever thought would interest me but here I am - over two years "under my belt" and I can't even remember what my life was like before I joined this amazing team. Professor Joey & Coach Corina are the real deal and have become an important part of my life and Jiu-jitsu journey. All it took was a friend convincing me to

It started as something to get our son involved in and it turned into a family affair. Paradigm is family centered and they care about each one of us. They understand that progress is different for each individual and they guide us in our jujitsu journey. They make learning fun, they engage everyone and we sweat a lot. I feel so good knowing my kids are developing skills for mental clarity, strengthening and self defense. I recommend Paradigm to anyone looking to challenge themselves, be a part of an amazing family and develop amazing but-kicking skills!

I recently decided to find an academy closer to home after a very long hiatus. I found Paradigm on FB and checked out their schedule online and found a day to come in for a trial run. Best decision! Everyone is so welcoming and really make you part of the team. Higher belts are more than willing to share their knowledge with the less experienced.
The facility itself is bright and extremely clean.
There are a variety of class times available making it easier to attend if you have a busy work schedule.

I joined The Paradigm Academy less than a month ago and wish that I would have done it sooner. If you are like me and have no Jiu-Jitsu experience this place will allow you to go at your own pace while still progressing. I cannot wait to see far my technique comes along in the next year!

This dojo is by far the most beautiful looking academy you will ever see. If you are looking for a training facility that is truly gorgeous and visually stunning, then this is the place for you. However, that is as far as it goes, after a few months of being there, you start to see through the facade that is this academy. The owner/head instructor is more interested in giving you life advice than he is coaching and teaching people bjj. I can't tell you the amount of times I overheard him giving people advice or having a discussion with someone else just to tear them down and be unrelenting
