Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Zurich. Technique over strength – from your very first session. No experience needed.
João de Oliveira · IBJJF Black Belt European Champion
Free Trial ClassBrazilian Jiu-Jitsu is the most efficient way to control someone without hurting them. No punching, no kicking. Leverage, position and timing beat strength, which is why BJJ works against bigger and stronger people.
We train in the Gi, the kimono, and No-Gi without it. Both have their own classes. The programme is led by João, second-degree black belt and IBJJF Black Belt European Champion. Whoever stays consistent and puts in the work gets graded by him.
On the mat everyone helps you along, from day one. If you want to compete, you train with the competition team. That takes commitment.
Your first session is free. Before that, we'll have a quick chat to see whether IMPACT is the right fit for you.

Free Trial ClassIn Zurich we have 12 BJJ sessions per week, from basics to competition level.
A class lasts 60 minutes: warm-up, technique with a partner, then rolling, which is free practice with resistance. Basics classes are for getting started, all-levels classes for everyone who already trains.
Free training without instruction, open to all levels, beginners included.
Just sign up for your trial class via the form. You can come in for free to get to know us and the classes – we'll give you a quick call beforehand.
