What is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu?
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a grappling martial art based on the principle that technical efficiency and leverage allow a smaller person to defeat a stronger opponent. It focuses on ground combat, where positional dominance is used to apply submissions like joint locks and chokes. BJJ has become a massive global trend known as the "grappling revolution" after its success in early MMA events. It is now a world-renowned sport with a vast network of training centres, such as Storm Sail BJJ.


Quick History
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) began when Japanese expert Mitsuyo Maeda (left) taught Carlos Gracie (centre) in 1915. In 1925, Carlos opened the first academy in Brazil. His brother Helio Gracie (right) refined the art to rely on leverage and timing due to his frail build. Royce Gracie brought BJJ global fame in the 1990s by winning early UFC events against larger opponents.

Our Ethos
"A Storm Sail exists so you can stay in control when conditions are extremely challenging"
In sailing, a storm sail is not designed for speed or comfort, but for control, stability, and direction when normal sails create too much force. You don’t fight the storm…you wouldn’t win. Instead, you adapt so you can move through it safely and deliberately.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu works in much the same way.
BJJ places you in situations of constant pressure: physical, mental, and emotional. Stronger opponents, unfamiliar positions, fatigue, frustration, uncertainty. This is the environment where learning happens.
At Storm Sail BJJ, training is approached as a long-term practice. The goal is not to remove difficulty, but to create an environment where people can engage with it safely, thoughtfully, and over time. In doing so, students learn not to avoid pressure, but to remain oriented within it; adjusting, continuing, and finding their way forward, much like navigating a storm.
With consistency, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu becomes more than a martial art. It becomes a tool for self-development, building confidence, resilience, discipline, and meaningful social connection. What is learned on the mat carries into how challenges, pressure, and relationships are handled beyond it.
Lifelong Refinement.
Adaptation over Force.
Consistent Progress, Together.
Storm Sail BJJ focuses on long-term development through lifelong refinement, intelligent adaptation, and consistent training within a supportive community. Our approach prioritizes health, skill, and sustainable evolution…
