Fairfield Fit Club BJJ

Fit Club Jiu-Jitsu is a family-run Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu school located in the heart of downtown Fairfield, Connecticut. Led by black belt Professor Joe Oppedisano (known to everyone as Coach Joe), this gym has become a special fixture in the Fairfield community. Members past and present describe it as a home away from home, taking pride in their town, their teaching, and most importantly the friendships built with members. Coach Joe's gift for teaching and his love for the art and sport of BJJ is reflected in every class. The gym offers comprehensive programs for all ages and skill levels, including Kids BJJ (ages 5 to high school), Little Ninjas (ages 3-5), Teens/Tweens BJJ, Adult BJJ, Women's BJJ, Private Women's Self-Defense, and Law Enforcement Training. The kids program has developed a successful competition team that regularly brings home medals from tournaments. The teaching methodology focuses on building confidence, discipline, self-image, and practical self-defense skills while developing good character. Classes are structured with warmups, takedown techniques (Judo/Wrestling), drilling of positions and submissions, and live training sessions. The gym welcomes everyone - whether you're looking for an after-school activity for your child, a new sport for yourself, a way to get in shape, build confidence and strength, or learn self-defense. Professor Joe is supported by an excellent coaching staff including Professor Russ (black belt), Coach Rob and Coach Matt (both brown belts), Detective Leetch (self-defense specialist), and Coach Skip (wrestling specialist).
