Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) Malaysia promotes the principle that a smaller, weaker person using leverage and proper technique can successfully defend themselves against a bigger, stronger assailant.
BJJ can be trained for self defense, sport grappling tournaments (gi and no-gi) and mixed martial arts (MMA) competition.
Sparring (commonly referred to as 'rolling') and live drilling play a major role in training, and a premium is placed on performance, especially in competition.
It is a combat sport that focuses on grappling with the goal of gaining a dominant position and using joint-locks and chokeholds to force an opponent to submit or to stop resisting and give up. The art was based on early 20th century Kodokan Judo, which was itself then a recently-developed system (founded in 1882), based on multiple schools (or Ryu) of Japanese Jujutsu.
The BJJ program at KDT Academy was started in 2003 and is taught by Sam Wee, a student of John Will (Australia) and Adam Kayoom. Sam has been training with John Will since 1997 in Melbourne, Australia. We are considered to be the pioneers of the sport in Malaysia and have played host to many visiting students and instructors from all over the world. Please consider yourself invited to roll at our club.
KDT Academy is the only BJJ group in Kuala Lumpur and only a short 25-minute taxi ride away
from KLCC/ Twin Towers area.
Sorry, we don't train kids under 16 except for Personal Training.
