We will gradually guide you on the journey to success whether your goal is to LOSE WEIGHT, learn effective self defense, increase confidence, compete, achieve a Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, or ALL OF THE ABOVE. Whatever your personal goals are, our instructors are committed to help you accomplish them. Read on and learn more about our Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program in Bridgeport and Chalfont, Pa and what it can do for you.

First let's talk about the number one reason people that want to start a martial arts program never step through the door of an academy or pick up the phone to find out more. It's the following belief:

 “I am too out of shape, and I’ve never done something like this before. I'll make a fool out of myself.”

Most new students think that they need to get in shape before they starting training in brazilian jiu jitsu. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and martial arts in general are a great way to get into shape. That is if the academy has a progression system for beginners. And we do!

Our fundamentals class is designed in a way to build your cardio, in a safe and friendly environment. You will quickly see that Hellfish MMA has a great family atmosphere where everyone here ( fellow students and instructors) will help you attain your goals.

And don’t let your age be an excuse. You can do it!

Our adult Brazilian Jiu Jitsu program is enjoyed and practiced by students at every age level. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is based on leverage, timing and positioning which makes it the perfect art for older students. Older students often take to the art quicker as they don't try to 'muscle' the techniques like the young guns (younger students) do. Bottom line - don't let age be your excuse.

If you are interested in working out and staying in shape, then you will be interested in what we have to offer!!!

“But I have no experience, won’t everyone be too advanced?”

The truth is, a majority of people who join have no prior experience in martial arts. This is where our academies are different from most schools. Most schools throw new students in “with the wolves” their very first day of class. This can be quite overwhelming to the new student and also be detrimental to the learning process. On top of that, at most schools the instructor just teaches what the feel like that day or that week.

This teaching style does not adequately prepare students the correct way. Learning any martial effectively is a process that requires a well planned curriculum. I personally learned the importance of this from my own instructors early on in my training.

Here at Hellfish MMA we have fundamentals classes that are designed for the new student. These classes focus on technique and drilling to prepare students for the more advanced techniques and theory of Jiu-Jitsu.

Can I compete in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, grappling, or Mixed Martial Arts competition?

 Through my experience both as a competitor and as an instructor, I have been able to pass this knowledge to my students who have had great success competing in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, submission grappling, and Mixed Martial Arts competition.
I have trained numerous fighters to victory at the highest levels of competition. 

You have the opportunity to train with the best,
Why settle for second best?

What makes our training system so successful is we show you how to train, how to peak for events, what to eat, the importance of recovery, the best exercises to use, and more! If you are looking for a professional resource to help you improve, to help you reach the next level of competition; to help you perform optimally, to improve your quality of life, Hellfish Mixed Martial Arts is the place to go. One thing’s for sure: You will see results from our program, provided you come on a regular basis. If you are committed to training at your best, then we are committed to helping bring you to the top of your game.

Remember… Training Consistently is Your Key to Success

Hard work beats talent when talent refuses to work hard. At our Montgomery County BJJ & MMA academies we provide a safe, fun & supportive training environment that makes training consistently not seem like a chore all the while getting you into the best shape of your life!

But that’s not all.

Our 7 Day FREE Trial!

In order to reach your highest potential as a competitor you have to have an instructor who knows what it takes to be a champion. Head instructor Tim Carpenter has competed and won at the highest levels in International competition in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu  and MMA (Bellator MMA) making him one of the most accomplished instructors on the East Coast.

In order for you to know that you are receiving quality instruction and the most cutting edge technique, always check to see if the instructor has any experience in competition himself. There are a lot of black belts in the area and around the country who have never proven the effectiveness of their technique in competition.

Wouldn’t you want to know that the technique you are learning really works? Tim’s students have also had great success in NAGA (North American Grapplers Association) and Grapplers Quest tournaments.

If you don’t think you enjoy a friendly atmosphere, a team spirit, and people that will go out of their way to make you the best grappler you can be, then this may not be the place for you. But if you’re serious about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu so are we and there’s nothing that should stop you from giving our program a try at our Chalfont or Bridgeport schools ready to serve you.
