Science of Jiu Jitsu Academy

Science of Jiu Jitsu Academy was established in Harvey, Louisiana with the goal of offering dedicated Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training for all ages right outside New Orleans. The academy is known for its balanced approach, running both gi and no-gi programs throughout the week. Classes are structured to serve adults, teens, and kids as distinct groups, with special attention given to skill development at each stage. Adult students at Science of Jiu Jitsu can train in both traditional gi classes and no-gi sessions, allowing them to develop a complete grappling game without needing to change schools. Open mat sessions are a regular part of the schedule, giving members the chance to work on live rounds, positional sparring, and technique outside regular class times. Drop-ins are welcome, making the academy accessible for visiting grapplers and those looking to cross-train from nearby New Orleans or Metairie. For younger athletes, the academy runs kids’ and teens’ jiu-jitsu classes in the gi, including a dedicated kids’ competition team. These youth programs are kept separate from the adult room, ensuring age-appropriate instruction and a focused learning environment. The facility is wheelchair accessible, and the academy’s practical approach to training has helped it become a steady part of the local jiu-jitsu scene in Harvey.
