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!

At Savarese BJJ, Northern New Jersey’s top Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy, we have some of the best BJJ instructors in NJ. All have been trained in every aspect of BJJ. ALL of our instructors trained with us and by us. Every single one was a student here first. Just like progressive academic schools do not teach all students with just one learning method, neither should a martial arts school assume that one style fits all. Maybe you’re someone who is athletic and is looking for a new challenge, and needs classes that demand higher intensity and challenge. Maybe you’re someone who is just looking to get ‘off the couch’ and you’ve tried joining this or that fitness class or gym and it’s just not working for you. What you’ll find at Savarese BJJ is that the style of martial art is secondary to your goals as a person.
