About Us
Building a community of strength, discipline, and respect through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
Our Story
Founded in 2024, Breakfast Club Jiu-Jitsu started as a small group of friends training before work leveraging the ecological approach to BJJ. The "Breakfast Club" name stuck, representing our commitment to starting the day with hard work and camaraderie.
Today, we have grown into a full-service academy in the heart of Jersey City, but we maintain that same tight-knit, welcoming atmosphere. We believe that BJJ is for everyone, regardless of age, fitness level, or background.
