Genesis Martial Arts/BJJ Revolution Alexandria is guided by Soke Clint DuPlechian, a martial artist with decades of experience dating back to 1987. Clint holds a 10th degree black belt in Karate Nintai-Do under the International Matsumura Seito Society and a first-degree black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. He opened central Louisiana’s first dedicated BJJ school and combines his training in Karate, Judo, Iaido, Kobudo Jutsu, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with a background in health and physical education, bringing a broad martial arts perspective to the academy. Genesis Martial Arts remains a family-run operation, with Clint supported by his wife and four children. The academy offers Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes for youth and adults, emphasizing self-defense, discipline, and character development. Youth classes for ages 7 to 12 focus on goal-setting and leadership skills alongside technical training, while women’s BJJ classes address practical self-defense scenarios and fitness. The curriculum is built around BJJ’s core principle of using leverage and technique to defend against larger opponents. Genesis Martial Arts is affiliated with the BJJ Revolution Team, a lineage tracing back to Carlson Gracie’s academy in Rio de Janeiro, known for its competitive success and technical innovation. Alongside BJJ, Genesis Martial Arts runs programs for younger children, including the Mat Gators for ages 4 to 6, which develops coordination, focus, and self-confidence through age-appropriate drills and “mat chats.” The academy also maintains a youth karate program, reinforcing discipline, self-control, and teamwork. The facility is wheelchair accessible and offers a range of classes that reflect both traditional martial arts and modern Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, serving the Alexandria community with a blend of technical depth and family-oriented instruction.
