Claim this gymGuardhouse Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu opened its doors at 41 Ardelt Pl. Unit 1B in downtown Kitchener and identifies as an affiliate of the Gringo Jiu-Jitsu Association under the guidance of Professor Fernando Zulick. The academy is owned and led by Mike Diggins, who earned his black belt under Zulick and brings over a decade of experience in learning, teaching and competing in BJJ. Instruction is delivered by a small team: head instructor Mike Diggins with assistant coaches Kevin Fratarcangeli, John Veale and Tony Nguyen. Kevin began training in 2010 and received his black belt in 2023; John has roughly twelve years of involvement in training, teaching and competition while working as an engineer; Tony started in 2011, recently completed a Kinesiology degree and focuses his teaching on passing and choke-oriented material. Those bios form the technical backbone of the class progression and weekly lesson planning. The training space is described as a spacious mat area fitted with premium Zebra mats on a spring subfloor, with multiple restrooms and showers available. Daily mat cleaning with industrial-strength disinfectant and a flip-flop policy for off-mat areas are noted as part of regular hygiene routines. Contact details include the academy address and a phone number (519-496-2150); more information and schedules are published on the academy website at https://www.guardhousebjj.ca/.
