Wind Jiujitsu

Wind Jiujitsu in Massapequa, NY operates as an official affiliate of the Kioto Brazilian Jiu Jitsu system, founded and developed by Grand Master Francisco Mansor. Mansor, one of the few outside the Gracie family to receive a Professor’s Diploma from Helio Gracie himself, has shaped the system through decades of teaching over 20,000 students since 1965. Instructors at Wind Jiujitsu maintain annual certification under Mansor’s standards, ensuring alignment with his approach that blends traditional jiu-jitsu techniques with practical self-defense, striking, and takedown skills. Classes at Wind Jiujitsu reflect this comprehensive philosophy. Adults train in both gi and no-gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, with instruction emphasizing ground fighting alongside realistic striking and defense tactics. The curriculum extends beyond sport grappling to include submission wrestling and judo elements, underscoring the system’s broader martial arts context. Open mat sessions offer additional time for students to drill and spar freely, supporting skill development across all levels. The academy also runs a structured kids’ program divided by age and gi/no-gi preferences. Youth classes cover fundamental techniques, competition preparation, and self-defense topics such as anti-bullying and rape prevention. Women’s self-defense and law enforcement tactics are incorporated into specialized sessions, while conditioning and executive classes cater to older practitioners. This range of offerings demonstrates Wind Jiujitsu’s intent to serve diverse training needs within a single, cohesive system.
