Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a terrific sport for both the mind and body. Some of the benefits include self-confidence, weight loss, and friendship.
With that said, the health and safety of our members is paramount and something we take very seriously.
We recognize that there are risks involved in training jiu-jitsu, and want you to know we are taking the following precautions in relation to COVID-19.
Here is what we are doing to keep VBJJ the cleanest studio possible:

- Touchless thermometer for temperature readings upon entering the facility
