Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art, combat sport and self-defense system that focuses on grappling, especially ground fighting, with the goal of gaining a dominant position and using joint locks and choke holds to force an opponent to submit.

It promotes the principle that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend himself or herself against a bigger, stronger assailant by using proper technique and leverage, and most notably, taking the fight to the ground.Once on the ground, the fight can be ended by applying joint-locks and choke holds to defeat the opponent.
What is Executive Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu? You might think Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is just a young person's game? Well, this class is intended for individuals over the age of 30. Executive Jiu Jitsu places an emphasis on professionals, beginners and anyone who wishes to learn Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu without some of the physical demands that some of our regular classes may require.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu offers a fun way for both boys and girls to achieve fitness goals and work on focus & attention skills. Here kids will learn self-discipline and socialization skills they will carry with them their entire life. Classes are structured to challenge kids and giving strong, positive reinforcement when goals are reached.
Judo (meaning "gentle way") was created in 1882 as a martial art that develops physical, mental and moral strength. It is generally categorized as a modern martial art which later evolved into a combat and Olympic sport. Many of our students combine judo and jiu-jitsu training. It's most prominent feature is the competitive element, where the objective is to either throw or us a takedown to bring an opponent to the ground.

Flashback is a great place filled with great people. Jesse and Jina are the coaches and have done an excellent job cultivating a culture that welcomes everyone from beginners to experts. They are passionate about Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, the people they work with and helping people grow. I personally got into it just to check it out and try something new… I’ve been hooked ever since! There are so many benefits physically, mentally/emotionally and socially. I have seen personal growth in all these areas inside the gym and out. This is all thanks to the coaches and students that make this place great

I honestly can't explain how amazing the atmosphere is at Flashback and how incredible the instructors are and the entire team in general. I transitioned to jiu-jitsu from CrossFit and it was all incredibly new to me as I had never done any form or martial arts prior. To be honest, it was one of the best transitions I ever did. It's been a very positive experience for me so far, an incredible challenge for myself who got very comfortable in what I was doing before, and I have found yet another group of people to add to my support system. It truly is like family there.

This gym is badass!!! From the yellow mats to the cool picture frames. I had the privilege to attend a seminar there while visiting Wisconsin. Coach Jesse and his wife were very welcoming. If you live in Appleton or are just driving through you have to stop in train.

Great place to learn self defense or regular Jiu-Jitsu, or both at an extremely affordable price. The instructors are highly trained black belts and encourage an atmosphere of friendly competition and training. Everyone here wants everyone to train hard and succeed.

I absolutely LOVE training here. Everyone is very friendly. Very family friendly environment. Great place to make new friends. Coach Jesse explains different techniques in a way that is easy to understand. If I have questions or need help Jesse and the other coaches are always willing to help me. Very diverse team with different backgrounds and experience. Everyone is willing to help eachother and learn from eachother. I've recommended this place to my family and friends. I can't say enough positive things about this place.
