Keenan breaks down this class’s features.

Legion is not your typical jiu jitsu academy...

At Legion our mission is to provide you or your child with world-class jiu jitsu instruction. We want to do so in an environment that’s welcoming for those who are hardened warriors and those that are trying jiu jitsu for the first time. Our members come from all walks of life, from ages of 5 to 65.

The only thing that we reject at Legion are rigid traditions and exploitative business practices. And gym drama.

Perhaps years on the internet made you skeptical about claims on websites. That is fair enough and completely understandable. It is also the reason why we have free trials available for all of our programs.

Here's some information about our memberships

Sign up fees are a completely made up way some academies try to get “leverage” over their clients. Normally they’re magically waived at some point in the conversation.

There are no signup fees at Legion. In fact, we give anyone that becomes a member a free gi. Just so that you can worry more about your submission defense and less about your laundry.

Access to Online Courses for learning off the mats.

We’re big believers in using the medium of video to advance jiu jitsu learning. Even with perfect focus and memory, you can only learn so much on the mats. We want to make sure all of our members have access to those lessons for when they’re away from the mats. That’s why full access is included in memberships at no extra cost.

You shouldn’t have to worry… Not as a visitor or someone that recently moved into town, or just switched gyms. You particularly shouldn’t have to worry about throwing out your 2/3 of your gis because they don’t match our mats. The same goes for visitors, we don’t particularly care if you wear your team’s patch. Less stress about uniforms means more focus on quality training.

*as long as it’s not offensive, duh.
