Tharros Jiu Jitsu

Tharros Jiu Jitsu in Delray Beach is led by Professor Kelly Beringson, an IBJJF and USBJJF certified black belt. Professor Beringson’s approach centers on helping students develop both technical skill and personal character, drawing from years of experience on the mats. The academy’s philosophy is summed up by the belief that the greatest victory is not just winning medals, but becoming the person you want to be—resilient, disciplined, and confident. Classes at Tharros are structured to serve a wide range of students, from young children to adults. The kids’ program is designed to build respectful, courageous leaders, while adults are encouraged to develop quiet confidence and mental resilience alongside their grappling skills. Every class begins with a structured warm-up and technique instruction, followed by positional drilling and, for more experienced students, live sparring. Newcomers are paired with more knowledgeable partners to ensure safety and steady progress, and families are encouraged to train together through dedicated family plans. The academy emphasizes safety and humility in training, with all classes overseen by Professor Beringson and his team of internationally certified instructors. Tharros Jiu Jitsu welcomes students of all backgrounds and offers a wheelchair-accessible facility. Whether someone is looking to introduce their child to martial arts, train as a family, or pursue personal growth through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, the academy’s programs reflect a commitment to helping students improve every day.
