Claim this gymJisso Academy in London traces its roots directly to the Roger Gracie lineage, with founder Fabio Prado holding a black belt under Roger Gracie himself, a ten-time world champion and grandson of BJJ pioneer Carlos Gracie. This connection places the academy firmly within one of the most respected traditional gi-based Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu systems. The academy’s name, "Jisso," reflects a Japanese concept meaning "true image" or "essence," embodying their philosophy that jiu-jitsu is a path to self-discovery and personal growth beyond mere sport or self-defence. Training at Jisso Academy is structured around a consistent curriculum that emphasises technique, patience, and mental resilience. Adult classes run from beginner to advanced levels, with each session focusing on specific positions and concepts, combining dynamic warm-ups, drills, self-defence, and controlled sparring. This approach ensures steady progression while reinforcing fundamentals and encouraging strategic use of energy. The academy also offers strength and conditioning sessions, open mat times for additional practice, and private lessons with Fabio for tailored coaching. Youth programmes cater to children from four years upwards, divided into age groups to teach discipline, community values, and confidence through BJJ. Classes are inclusive and designed to build skills progressively in a safe environment. Located on Denmark Road in Queens Park, London, Jisso Academy welcomes drop-ins and is registered with the UKBJJA, reflecting its commitment to maintaining high standards within the local BJJ community. The academy’s focus remains on developing not only capable martial artists but individuals equipped to face life’s challenges with resilience and composure.
