Jiu-Jitsu is not karate. At its core, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is considered the ultimate form of self defense, but that's not the primary reason it's so popular. Jiu-Jitsu is a holistic activity that involves mind, body and spirit. It's low impact, and people continue studying Jiu-Jitsu as senior citizens. Jiu-Jitsu offers so many benefits in many areas of your life.
The Robert Lovi Academy opened doors in November 2008. The facility is not large and glamorous. It's straight to the point, and offers students the opportunity to learn world-class level Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in a small classroom setting. Our blackbelt instructors actively participate with all of our students and give everyone personalized attention.
Pedro Sauer Curricula
We are a Pedro Sauer affiliate school and follow the curriculum for the belt ranking program. This is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu direct from the source. We teach both self defense and sport Jiu-Jitsu, and emphasize gi training. The gi (the traditional kimono uniform) is not just about tradition. All of the top Jiu-Jitsu competitors come from gi backgrounds. The gi slows things down, forces proper technique, simulates clothing, and allows for a much wider range of techniques.
Beginners Welcomed
If you've never studied Jiu-Jitsu before, our academy offers a warm and inviting environment for beginners. We all have to start at some point. The academy is not competition focused, so our classes are more relaxed. Students choose their own pace.
