In the bustling state of New Jersey, where skyscrapers kiss the sky and everyone talks a mile a minute, there exists a secret tribe of kids. They are not your average everyday kids. No, no, they are the Jiu Jitsu Juniors! Every day, after they've tackled their math homework and eaten their vegetables (yuck!), they transform. They trade their school uniforms for gis and turn into Jiu Jitsu ninjas! Of course, they have a leader, a quite unusual one. Let me introduce you to Grandmaster Gerald, although he prefers the name "Gerry the Geico". Now, he's not an insurance salesman, but a gigantic, jolly green gecko who walks upright and wears a black belt! With a Jersey accent so thick, it's like a creamy bowl of clam chowder, he teaches them the art of Jiu Jitsu. These daring kids flip and roll around, defying gravity like acrobats in a circus. Through their Jiu Jitsu journey, they learn to be strong, brave, and respectful. Despite their small size, their spirits are as big as the Garden State itself! They call themselves the "Jitsu Sprouts". And, they’re as diverse as the tomatoes in Jersey's famous salads - some are as tough as raw Jersey turnips, while others are as sweet as fresh-picked blueberries. But when they’re together, they create a delicious mix, just like a Jersey hoagie! As the sun sets in the Jersey sky, they end their day with a secret handshake and a hearty laugh. Then, with gis over their shoulders, they become everyday kids again. But remember, inside each of them, a Jiu Jitsu Junior always lurks, ready for the next adventure with Gerry the Gecko!

Throughout history, Ronins were labeled as outcasts for going against social norms. When they would lose their Teacher/Master they were left with two options, Death or be labeled an outsider for the rest of your life. Many times this would force them to find new methods of training. They would study multiple styles to find what worked best for them. This led Ronins to often carrying more weapons than just the basic two swords. Despite being treated unfairly, being mocked, and being doubted many Ronins rose above the noise to become legendary figures that are still spoken of today. We believe in learning from multiple high level instructors, finding what works best for you, and adding it into your own personal style. Our instructors have been guided by the styles and teachings of Jamie Cruz (Cruz Control BJJ), Marcello Garcia, and Eddie Bravo’s 10th planet system. Our striking classes are led by American Strikers owner and Former Golden Gloves, Diamond Gloves, Interstate Champion, Don Cioffi. We welcome all skill levels from beginner and up. Come roll with the Ronins and become a part of something different.
