Technique BJJ

Technique BJJ is led by Coach Christopher Rowan, a black belt since 2019 who has been training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu since 2012 and competing since 2013. His experience includes numerous local tournament victories and participation in high-level grappling events. Rowan’s instruction draws on a broad grappling background, integrating Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with Judo, wrestling, and catch wrestling. Technique BJJ’s approach emphasizes controlling an opponent through leverage and body mechanics while preserving the art’s traditional values and adapting it alongside other grappling disciplines. Students at Technique BJJ train across a varied schedule that includes gi and no-gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes for adults, as well as specialized wrestling and catch wrestling sessions. The academy supports competition-minded practitioners with dedicated coaching and preparation, though tournament participation is optional. Kids’ classes focus on gi training, with age-appropriate instruction designed to build fundamentals and confidence. Open mat sessions are regularly available to all students for additional practice and drilling. Located in Prospect, Connecticut, the academy operates out of a 2,100-square-foot facility featuring over 1,000 square feet of mat space, spectator seating, changing rooms, and accessible amenities. Classes run six days a week with early morning, daytime, and evening options, including an MMA class on Sundays. Private lessons with Coach Rowan offer tailored instruction for newcomers or those seeking focused skill development. This straightforward setup supports a practical, no-nonsense environment for learning Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and related grappling arts.
