This class is taught by Sensei Kwinton Mansfield. He has the rank of 5th degree black belt in Karate Jutsu and a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. He has been training in the martial arts for over 23 years.
This class offers a hybrid adult BJJ/Japanese Jujutsu class for ages 14 and up. This class will blend modern day BJJ and traditional Japanese Jujutsu with a higher focus on self defense. How to deal with a bigger, larger opponent trying to hurt you. How to deal with an attacker trying to hit you or choke you.
Both sport and self defense Jujutsu will be taught and give students an understanding of the difference between the two. Throws, takedowns, joint locks, and of course submission grappling will also be areas of focus.
We want to offer an affordable class that does not require 5 days a week of your time but allows you to train while having a job, family and life. If you are looking to compete, train for self defense or just get a great workout we are happy to have you join our class. We will prioritize the safety and well being of our students above all else while pushing you to reach levels you never have before.
“I have been in the martial arts for over 15 years and regardless of where I train I keep coming back to Sensei Topp. Sensei Topp is able to incorporate multiple styles such as Karate, Kung Fu, Jujutsu, etc. and blend them into one art… With his vast knowledge of the human body, he is able to both show and illustrate the effects that a technique will have on the body.”

“Training here has affected me more than physically. The lessons, the respect, the basic principles have found a way to incorporate itself in my whole life… To some people think it may not sound like much but I used to get stressed out depressed about all those little things. And now it just keeps me level headed.”
— Joseph Traylor
