Sucker Free Jiu Jitsu

Sucker Free Jiu Jitsu in Lindenhurst is led by head instructor Weiss Sakhizada, a black belt under JT Torres and a decorated competitor with a Pan Am title and multiple IBJJF championships at both brown and black belt. Weiss founded the academy in 2017, shaping it around high standards for hygiene, safety, and technical growth. His teaching emphasizes flow, control, and helping students develop their own unique games, all while maintaining an ego-free training room. Weiss brings over a decade of coaching experience and continues to train under Zata Toscano. The coaching team also includes Alli Sakhizada, an accomplished competitor who has won the IBJJF New York Open at blue and purple belt and now focuses on creating more space for women and girls on the mats. Erik Hynes, a longtime Sucker Free student turned coach and general manager, brings consistent competition experience and a commitment to keeping the mats clean and welcoming. Training at Sucker Free centers on structured gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for adults, with fundamentals and all-levels classes, as well as a dedicated wrestling-for-jiu-jitsu program and a competition class for those looking to test themselves. Open mat sessions are available and drop-ins are welcome by referral, in keeping with the academy’s focus on a thoughtful, curated training environment. The facility is wheelchair accessible, and the overall atmosphere is designed to support long-term, high-level practice without ego or unnecessary aggression.
