OCTA Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Burlington

In Burlington, OCTA Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Burlington operates as the local branch of OCTA BJJ and uses the Blair Road address for its classes. The academy presents itself with a family-oriented approach and places emphasis on mutual respect and collaboration between students of different ages. The website and official materials identify Professor Luiz Costa and Greg Carrasco among the coaching staff. Class structure follows a weekly rhythm with age- and skill-specific sessions: Gi BJJ Fundamentals for adults (all levels), Gi BJJ Advanced for higher-ranked adults, Intro/Beginners sessions, a Women’s Only BJJ class, Open Mat and a tiered kids program split into Little Octopus (4–5), Kids (6–8), Pre-Teen (9–12) and Teens (13–17). The school notes two free semi-private intro classes for newcomers and maintains separate programming to progress students through fundamentals toward advanced training. Professor Luiz Costa’s biography records a Rio de Janeiro origin, early training in judo, capoeira and taekwondo from age six, a return to BJJ in the 2000s under Professor Flavius Virginio and award of his BJJ black belt in 2016; he also founded a karate school in Botafogo in 2007. Greg Carrasco’s profile notes a background from Santiago, Chile, early Shotokan Karate training from age nine, competition experience in striking disciplines and certification as a CrossFit coach.
