Our Philosophy
Our Philosophy
The mission of North Star Jiu-Jitsu is to provide private and semi-private lessons guided by the five elements of Jiu-Jitsu: standing self-defense, striking, clinching and throwing techniques, grappling, and philosophy.
At North Star, we recognize that Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art with a low retention rate among new students, to combat this we provide our students with clearly stated goals, patience, and the programs to follow their North Star. Though we teach self-defense, North Star Jiu-Jitsu is a competitive school that encourages participation in tournaments.

Our students train striking techniques of all kinds in both the standing and grounded positions.
Clinching and Throwing Techniques

Newaza or ground work is the true specialty of our art and we train all aspects of the game on the ground.
Philosophy of Bushido
Philosophy of Bushido
We choose to promote the study of the code of the samurai as a part of Jiu Jitsu because it helps the student aim for excellence and it provides a standard for the culture of our team.
