Jiu-Jitsu began with Mitsuyo Maeda, a Japanese expert judoka and member of the Kodokan. Maeda emigrated to Brazil in the 1910s where an influential businessman named Gastão Gracie helped him get established. In return for his aid, Maeda taught the fighting art to Gastão’s son Carlos Gracie, who then taught the art to his brothers and sons. When Maeda taught the art to the Gracies he called it Jiu-jitsu. The Gracie family refined this art form into what is now known as Gracie Jiu-Jitsu.

amazing gym...very friendly and tough training...sean and mike will push you to become your best on the mats

Mike is one of the hardest working and most knowledgeable coaches I've worked with. Certainly the best leg locker I've trained with. He's trained with the absolute best in the sport, and relentlessly hones his craft in the crucible of high-level competition. Every martial arts school "talks the talk" but only a few "walk the walk". If you want battle-tested techniques, Immortals Jiu Jitsu is where you should be.

Amazing place to train for first timers or bjj vets. Coach Mike has a huge passion for the sport and you can tell that when you first walk in. All the coaches are willing to help you at the drop of a hat and very nice/patient especially for newbies like me. When I'm back In town this will be the main gym I hit up
