Westcoast BJJ

Over the last two evenings, Coach Katja had the privilege of teaching two women’s self defence seminars for members of Ceredigion’s Women’s Institute

With 40 ladies attending across the two sessions, we focused on simple, effective techniques that can be used by anyone, regardless of age, size, or experience

A great reminder that Jiu Jitsu isn’t about strength or athleticism, it’s about knowledge, confidence, and technique

“When technique replaces strength, Jiu Jitsu becomes accessible to everyone” 💙🥋

Katja and Jamie back on the mats with today

It’s always an honour for us to learn, train and continue the journey

🥋🙏

New timetable incoming 👊

From Monday June 1st we’ll officially be launching our updated timetable

One of the biggest changes is our Kids programme now being broken down into age groups

This allows us to create more focused classes, better progression and the best possible learning environment for every child on the mats

Let’s train 👊

Not bad for a days work

🥇gold
🥈silver
🥉🥉 bronze

Proud of these guys and watching their hard work pay off

We go again 👊

Parents often bring their children to Jiu Jitsu because they want them to learn self-defence

But what most parents don’t expect is the confidence, discipline, resilience and friendships that come with it

We see shy kids become confident
We see nervous kids become brave
We see kids who didn’t believe in themselves start to realise what they’re capable of

That’s why we love teaching kids Jiu Jitsu

The hardest part is walking through the door for the first time

After that, you’re part of the team 💙

WestCoast’s women’s class, taught by women for women

The goal of Jiu Jitsu is not to fight. The goal is to end a fight safely

Jiu Jitsu gives you the ability to stay calm under pressure, control a situation, and protect yourself or someone else if you ever needed to

It gives you confidence, control, discipline, and respect

This is what Jiu Jitsu means to us at WestCoast

Strength matters, but in Jiu Jitsu, intelligence matters more

Timing, leverage and technique

Learning how to solve problems under pressure

That’s what we train every day at WestCoast

🥋 Beginners always welcome
