Launch Weekend

You know what’s better than regular Jiu Jitsu? Jiu Jitsu with a party atmosphere.

And that’s exactly what we’re doing to break in our shiny new academy. Think of it like housewarming, but with rolling and seminars.

We’ve lined up a killer weekend of seminars and open mats featuring our awesome instructors from December 5th to 8th. Here’s what’s happening:

Thursday 5th December
6:00-7:30pm – Tom and Chels (No Gi)
7::30-9:00pm – Ciaran (Gi)

Friday 6th December
6:00-7:30pm – Sam (Gi)
7:30-9:00pm – Sam (No Gi)

Saturday 7th December
10:00-11:30am – Vanessa (Gi)
11:30-1:00pm – Kai (Mobility)

Sunday 8th December
10:00-1:00pm – Open Mat

The seminars are open to anyone who wants to celebrate with us. However, you need to book ahead. The mat is big, but it’s not infinite.

Welcome To The Team Vanessa

We’re really excited to announce that Vanessa English is joining our Escapology BJJ as a kids and adults coach.  

For those of you that don’t know her, Vanessa is a black belt under Victor Estima and an extremely seasoned UK-born competitor.  Although she’s known for her strong gi work, Vanessa has experience with both gi and no gi, so you can expect to see her floating around in both programmes.  She’s medaled at or won just about every major event that you can participate in– she was even a walk-on from the crowd in the 2009 ADCC Championships.  It’s a great story, you should ask her sometime.  

In addition to competing, Vanessa has been coaching extensively for the last ten years and has become well-known for her engaging mat presence. At Escapology, we’re really proud to be a team that such an accomplished female competitor would choose to join.  We think that says great things about the kind of environment that our students have helped us build. 

Vanessa is going to be an amazing addition to our coaching staff, and we’re excited for the addition of such a knowledgeable, experienced athlete into the team.

Vanessa will be running our Kids 1 programme, which focuses on building strong technical and competitive basics for new primary-age students.  In the adult programme, she’ll be teaching a wide variety of different classes– check the schedule a week in advance for more information!

How the Beginners’ BJJ Intensive works

One of the most common questions we’ve been asked about the Beginners’ BJJ Intensive goes something like:

“How does the Beginners’ BJJ Intensive work?”

That’s a really important question because, on the face of it, it might seem crazy that you can get a beginner into your main classes and able to learn after as little as three hours of teaching.

However, it is totally possible because the course follows a specific layered structure that continually reinforces the previous lessons and concepts.

Rather than try and explain the structure, check out this short video in which we share some of the secret sauce behind the beginners intensive.

Why the Beginners’ BJJ Intensive

I remember looking at our class attendance for the coming week and just feeling dejected. Sounds weird to say that you feel dejected because every class was almost 100% full, but it’s the truth. 

We had a tonne of people wanting to start BJJ and no way to get them going.  

As moving to a mega facility and as was running a full beginners programme were out of the question, so Chels and I decided to try short, intensive course. 

The results were staggering… check out the video to see what happened and why a beginners’ intensive might be the answer to your prayers:
