If you are looking for a friendly place to become the best martial artist that you can be, Team ROC is where you want to be. The core group of guys love to learn and to share technique and training tips. This atmosphere has paid off as we have over 40 wins in NHB and Mixed Martial Arts competition.
Our
Jiu Jitsu is straight from the tulage of Helio Gracie. This is very important
to us as a unit to make sure that the lineage of our instruction is directly
from the Father of Gracie Jiu Jitsu. If you are unfamiliar with Gracie
Jiu Jitsu check out their home page: Royce
Gracie Jiu Jitsu.
We feel that the emphasis should be on personal protection and then positioning.
Too many people focus solely on submission and forget that to get the
proper submission you must be in the correct position to ensure that you
are not wasting energy on a submission that will not work for you.
Keep your eyes on this page, we are always developing. Check out News to stay up-to-date and informed. The Gallery includes pictures of Team ROC fighters in action, as well as pictures from classes and other events.
