War Horse Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

War Horse Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Message us to start your 30 day free trial. Instruction provided by John and Missy Baize, black belts in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

We offer kids class, womens only classes, fundamental jiu jitsu and competition training. Jiu jitsu has been called the "gentle art" or "human chess." It's a game, but also a self defense system that promotes self control. There is no striking in this martial art. Jiu jitsu is a fun way to build confidence and strength, and a full body workout that engages the mind. Many find that it is a great stress reliever. At War Horse, we pride ourselves on being a great team, treating each other with respect. Jiu jitsu is a lifestyle, not just a fight style.

🎉 Happy Birthday to the incredible Professor Missy! 🎂
From white belt to first degree black belt, from last in line drills to leading seminars and camps - what an amazing journey! Your transformation isn’t just physical (hello glow up! ✨), but the confidence and leadership you’ve developed is truly inspiring.
Watching you go from someone who didn’t believe in herself to a dedicated teacher cheering on your team at competitions shows what dedication and heart can accomplish. The kids and little ninjas adore you, your War Horse family is so lucky to have you, and we know your dogs think you’re pretty awesome too! 🐕
Your commitment to the War Horse community shines through in everything you do. Thank you for being such an inspiring leader and for showing us all what’s possible when we believe in ourselves.
Hope your special day is filled with all the joy you bring to others! 🥋🌟

🎉 Happy Birthday to Professor Cory! 🎂
This amazing human teaches kids jiu jitsu with endless patience, helps adults reach their goals, and somehow manages to keep us all laughing along the way. He’s the kind of person you can always count on - whether you need a training partner, a good laugh, or just someone who genuinely cares.
When he’s not on the mats, you’ll find him spoiling his dogs, perfecting his golf swing, or smashing a cheeseburger.
Thanks for being such an incredible coach, mentor, and friend, Professor Cory. Hope your special day is filled with all your favorite things! 🥋🐕‍🦺⛳🍕🍔
