## Overview

**Name:** Movimento

**Description:** Brazilian jiu jitsu is an art form, and the artist that creates it does so with passion, respect, inspiration and the will to keep progressing. At Movimento BJJ & Fitness, founded by [Israel "Izao" Reyes](https://www.movimentobjj.com/instructors), we believe in the artistry of the sport and its practitioners.

Brazilian jiu jitsu teaches that with proper technique, women and men can defend themselves successfully against those who are larger and stronger, be it in practice sparring, sport grappling competition, or in the mixed martial arts (MMA) arena. The feat is accomplished by using precise leverage, refined movement, and proper technique.

Aside from teaching this ideal combat sport, Movimento offers a unique dedication to cardio boot-camp conditioning along with true-to-life grappling and ground-defense skills.
