brazilian jiu jitsu
Originated in Brazil this art emphasizes the ground fighting aspects. What would you do if someone bigger and stronger throws you to the ground and is ready to punch or strangle you? Developed by the Gracie Family, this art has all the answers for any situation where the fight goes to the ground. This program is combined with Judo where we grade students in both arts! We are part of Carlson Gracie Jiu-Jitsu team.

non-classical kung fu
Created by Bruce Lee who taught Jesse Glover, his very first student, and first assistant instructor. Jesse, who was also a Judo black belt, added elements of his own transforming this unique style in one of the most effective and realistic forms of Kung - Fu. Our instructor, Mike Lee, a Jesse Glover's former student for 36 years, is the only one teaching this form in the Chicagoland area. The philosophy of this art is the aggressive defense and this is the main difference from other forms of Kung Fu.
