Scoil Jiu-Jitsu

Scoil Jiu-Jitsu in Fermoy was founded with the goal of establishing a dedicated Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu community in County Cork. Headed by Lucas Guedes, a brown belt with extensive competition experience in major IBJJF tournaments including the World and Pan American championships, the academy reflects his commitment to solid fundamentals, technical precision, and practical application. Lucas’s background includes years of training and assisting his professor in Brazil, bringing a disciplined and patient approach to coaching that supports steady progress for all students. Training at Scoil Jiu-Jitsu follows a structured curriculum centred on gi classes across multiple age groups. The schedule accommodates mixed kids classes split by age, teens, and adult male-only sessions, all designed to build a strong foundation before advancing to more technical levels. The focus remains on traditional Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu techniques, with an emphasis on control, dominant positions, and submissions. The academy’s programming supports a family-friendly environment with multiple weekly classes and flexible attendance options, encouraging consistent training and skill development. Classes take place at the Fermoy Community Youth Centre on Ashe Quay, providing a local facility for practitioners in the area. Pricing is straightforward, with pay-as-you-go and package options, including family discounts beyond the first member. The school welcomes drop-ins and offers a clear path for progression, making it accessible for beginners and experienced grapplers alike. Scoil Jiu-Jitsu’s philosophy embraces BJJ as more than a martial art—it’s a lifestyle that promotes discipline, respect, and personal growth within the Fermoy community.
