Reserve your spot today!
Congratulations! You’ve taken that first step and have become a part of our family! It is at about this point when you get excited about getting your new gi, and it’s not long before you pose that age old question… “How do I tie my belt? ?” No worries! You’re not alone! I have just the right video for you, my friend. Watch the video below to see Rener Gracie break it down for us step-by-step. He gives us three options to use, so you get to choose the one that works best for you! Feel free to use this video as many times as you need! You might even find that different ways to tie your belt work best in different situations. It’s all good!
Now here’s something I bet you never even thought you needed to ask! “How do I tie my pants?” I mean… it sounds like a simple enough task, does it not? And yet… here we are. There’s a reason why we might be having difficulties with our jiu-jitsu pants. We expect to tie them the same way we tie our drawstring shorts, or our jogging pants, right? And why wouldn’t we? But it turns out, that tying them in the same way as we do our daily clothes can actually cause that mysterious loosening of our pants during class. Watch the video below as Rener explains how and why that happens, and what to do to fix it.
Whether you’ve experienced one or both of these problems, don’t worry! These are common issues that come up all the time, and as Rener said, sometimes even very experienced jiu-jitsu practitioners have had these same problems! You are not alone. I hope I have helped you learn more about how to use your new jiu-jitsu uniform, and as always, don’t be afraid to ask us if you need further help or have any more questions. After all, we’ve all been beginners, and in many ways, we will always continue to be beginners. Always remember that. And as always, have fun! ;0)

Please remember that we are closed Monday Feb 18th for Family Day. Have a wonderfully fun and safe day with your family!
It was a an ordinary day. A day when people came to our academy to learn self-defense, work out, to see their fellow members and the instructors whom they’ve come to know and love. We laughed, we learned, we worked hard. But one member had something a little extra special in mind. You see, there was one member he loved above all else, and when they made the decision to start something new in their lives by joining our jiu-jitsu family, Reg decided he was going to take new beginnings to a whole new level.
So he plotted, planned, prepared.
And while Karina was busy enjoying her Women Empowered class, Reg went upstairs and got busy executing his plan in complete secrecy. He. Told. No one.
Hidden in a book under a chapter with a most appropriate title, he hid his surprise and then waited to make his move. When class was over, he was joined by his niece and Karina upstairs, where he presented her the book and asked her the most important question of his life. Stunned and tearful, she accepted and happily shared a loving kiss with him before suddenly remembering where they were and took off running calling behind her, “I have to go tell Hasna!” (Our beloved Women Empowered instructor)
Karina only made it as far as the bottom of the steps before she was spotted, and she blurted out the happy news! “I JUST GOT ENGAGED!!” Within seconds the happy couple was swarmed with happy, excited women all cramming to hand out hugs, take a peek at the ring, and make a cacophony of happiness, expressing overwhelming joy at the news.
It is with absolute immense pleasure that we congratulate you on all your happy beginnings together, and we feel incredibly honoured and privileged to have been permitted to be a part of your wonderfully precious moment. May you enjoy a lifetime of health and happiness together.
