Many self-defense schools teach their students "magic" techniques that are supposed to work in all situations, but this approach is misleading. Most self-defense situations are unpredictable and cannot be solved with simple techniques. But with us, you'll learn to develop the awareness and tactics required to better protect yourself as well as the principles of fighting.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu offers the best blend of fitness training, self-defense, and combat competition. At Core Combat Sports, we are proud to offer men and women across Louisville a wide range of BJJ classes that cover every experience and interest level. And we're even home to a competition team that travels the country!

Words do not describe the importance of sharing your time with people who all commonly push each other to grow skillfully and athletically. Core teaches practical skills for confidence and safety, technical skills for competition, and offers an environment that is conducive to turning this art into both a habit and a passion. The staff and the owners become your second family and care about your progression. I highly recommend this facility to any person looking to advance their skills and athletic performance. Core does not disappoint!!
