INTRO TO BJJ / FUNDAMENTALS
MOVEMENTS, TECHNIQUES, SELF-DEFENSE SKILLS
Our Intro to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu class is perfect for students with little or no experience. Instead of memorizing random “moves,” you’ll build a strong foundation by learning the natural movements and principles that all Jiu-Jitsu techniques are based on.
Taught using Professor Caio Terra’s world-renowned CT-A Curriculum, this class moves at a comfortable, beginner-friendly pace so you can build confidence and progress quickly. We highly recommend attending the Intro to BJJ classes as the best way to start your Jiu-Jitsu journey here at the Caio Terra Academy.
In our Fundamentals class, you’ll learn the core positions, techniques, and concepts of Caio Terra Jiu-Jitsu using Professor’s CT-B Curriculum (White Belt to Blue Belt). This structured approach gives you a solid foundation in both Self-Defense and Sport Jiu-Jitsu.
Even though it’s beginner-friendly, many of our advanced students regularly attend to sharpen their basics, proving that fundamentals are essential at every level.
NO-GI / ADVANCED
CONCEPTS, STRATEGY, COMPETITION TRAINING
Our No-Gi class is open to both beginners and advanced students. In this class, you’ll learn how to apply traditional Jiu-Jitsu techniques without the Gi, focusing on takedowns, control, and submissions against opponents who aren’t wearing a uniform.
No-Gi training is typically faster paced than Gi Jiu-Jitsu, making it an excellent workout while also sharpening your timing, agility, and technique.
Our Advanced Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu class focuses on learning and drilling more complex techniques from Professor Caio Terra’s CT-C Curriculum, followed by live training (rolling). While this class is designed for students with more experience, motivated beginners are encouraged to attend alongside the Fundamentals program to accelerate their growth.
In this class, you’ll sharpen your timing, conditioning, and technical precision in a more intense training environment. It’s the perfect place to push your limits, prepare for competition, and continue developing a deeper understanding of Jiu-Jitsu.
YOUTH BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU
CT LITTLES AND CT KIDS
At CTA Irving, we offer age-specific Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu programs that help children build confidence, discipline, and coordination in a fun and safe environment.
CT Littles (ages 4–6): Focused on movement, balance, and basic Jiu-Jitsu skills. This class introduces young children to the mats in a playful way while teaching respect and focus.
CT Kids (ages 7–13): Based on the same proven curriculum as our adult program, adapted for youth. Students learn fundamental positions, movements, and beginner submissions while developing Professor Caio's core value: Technique Conquers All.
In both programs, children are grouped with peers of similar age and size to ensure safety and the best learning experience possible. Most importantly, they’ll have fun—while building skills that carry over into everyday life.
