Classes
Alliance is the most accomplished Jiu Jitsu team in IBJJF history with twelve world titles under its belt and that is no accident. Alliance’s specialized training methodology focuses on fundamentals, self defense, proper progression and a learning environment that is inclusive to everyone. Together with Bruno Malfacine, the only 10X World Champion in a single division, Alliance Jiu Jitsu | Bruno Malfacine combines a training methodology and instruction that is World Class and second to none.
Fundamentals
The foundation of your jiu jitsu journey. This class focuses on the fundamental concepts, movements and the building blocks of jiu jitsu. A heavy emphasis is placed on self-defense, positional awareness and core movements. Bruno attributes the longevity of his 10 world title reign to his re-dedication to the fundamentals that he learned with Alliance and he will pass that same knowledge, structure and learnings to you. There is no live sparring in this class.
Intermediate
Compounding on the learning of the fundamentals class, intermediate combines transitions, finishes and strategy. In this class you begin light sparring known as specific training. Specific training helps you break down jiu jitsu into positional games. Training under resistance in isolated positions makes the transition into live sparring and advanced training easier and more purposeful. Students require two stripes on their white belt before attending.
Advanced
This class covers advanced jiu jitsu techniques and positions. Expect plenty of live sparring in this class.
Nogi
A nogi jiu jitsu class follows the structure of an advanced class minus the traditional jiu jitsu uniform. It is practiced in grappling shorts and a rash guard.
Executive
Why the name executive? This 6:30 a.m. class is geared to those who have full days and busy schedules. Whether you are a business executive, full time student or stay at home parent- this class gives you the opportunity to get in a warmup, Jiu Jitsu learning, and a roll, all before 7:30 a.m. What a better way to start your day than a workout, a shower, and coffee (we have two coffee shops in walking distance). Training in the executive class covers all aspects of fundamentals, intermediate and advanced based on Bruno’s lessons of the week.
Competition
If your goals are to participate in sport jiu jitsu this is the class for you. Competition class has a heavy emphasis on live sparring and covers Bruno’s insights on competition strategy, mindset, and preparation. This class is by invitation only.
