Anzelone BJJ

Anzelone BJJ is guided by Vincent and Krista Anzelone, who bring deep experience from organizing and competing in the FUJI Jiu-Jitsu Competition Series, one of the largest BJJ circuits in the United States. Vincent also developed the proprietary software that manages FUJI’s registrations and scoring, giving the academy a detailed understanding of competition structure and preparation. Founded in Brownsville, Texas, the school focuses on teaching practical self-defense rooted in the Gracie system while preparing students for competitive environments. The academy also emphasizes fitness through a dedicated workout area that complements the mat training with strength, cardio, and conditioning exercises. Classes at Anzelone BJJ cover a broad age range, with gi-based training for adults and children starting at age five. Women and children receive tailored instruction to address their specific self-defense needs. The curriculum regularly revisits competition-relevant techniques to ensure students are ready for tournament scenarios. Open mat sessions are scheduled several times a week for adults, providing space for drilling and sparring beyond formal classes. Private lessons are also available for more focused skill development. The academy’s schedule includes morning and evening classes Monday through Thursday, with an open mat and children’s self-defense on Saturdays. The focus on safe, practical training methods supports a healthy lifestyle while building confidence in real-world situations. Anzelone BJJ’s approach balances traditional gi training with a strong foundation in competition readiness and self-defense, anchored by its founders’ extensive involvement in the sport’s competitive scene.
