BJJ is known as the most effective martial art in the world, although it is relatively
          new by martial arts standaards. Today, in any reality-fighting tournament, 99%
          of the competitors will have a certain level of knowledge in BJJ. Why? Because it's
          been proven time and time again, to work. We train with a partner almost all the
          time. In doing so, you quickly learn what works and what does not against an
          opponent who is resisting. We emphasize technique and position. Proper
          technique and good position will dictate the outcome of a fight; whether in
          competition or on the street. BJJ is easy and fun to learn, but takes hard work,
          discipline and dedication to master.

          At Sudbury MMA, our focus is maintaining the highest level of instruction in BJJ.
          Our commitment has lead us to learn from the best - Ottawa Academy of Martial
          Arts. Pat Cooligan, a Renzo Gracie Black belt is our head instructor and oversees
          our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu program. Not only does Pat come to Sudbury to work with
          us, but we also frequently organize trips to Ottawa. These trips give all of our
          students the opportunity to train at OAMA with Pat Cooligan and his instructors
          at the main academy in Ottawa.
