Bully Jiu Jitsu

Bully Jiu Jitsu Academy in Denham Springs, Louisiana, was founded and is led by Larry Bradford, who serves as owner and head instructor. The school was developed to offer a broad grappling and combat-sports curriculum rather than focusing solely on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. This approach reflects Bradford’s interest in providing students with a diverse skill set that includes both traditional gi and no-gi jiu jitsu alongside complementary disciplines like wrestling and boxing. Training at Bully Jiu Jitsu covers a range of programs for different age groups and skill levels. The academy separates kids’ classes from adult sessions, offering gi and no-gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for youth as well as adults. Women’s and teen fitness classes provide additional options tailored to those groups. Wrestling instruction emphasizes folk style techniques, and boxing classes for kids and teens add a striking component to the overall curriculum. Open mat sessions allow students to drill and spar beyond structured class time, supporting ongoing development. The facility at 6865 Magnolia Beach Road is wheelchair accessible, and drop-in training is welcomed, making it accessible to travelers and local grapplers alike. Its location near Baton Rouge and Gonzales helps draw students from a wider area interested in cross-training across multiple grappling arts. Bully Jiu Jitsu’s mix of programs under one roof lets practitioners work on the grip-intensive details of gi jiu jitsu as well as the faster-paced transitions of no-gi without needing to switch gyms.
