Oshawa BJJ and Fitness

Martial arts school

👍👍 It’s the best gym around for jiu jitsu. World champion trainers and owners who care about each students progression. This is a great gym if you want to compete, learn a new skill, or just want to stay in shape. **UPDATE AFTER OVER A YEAR OF TRAINING HERE** I’m a summer student who spends all my time... People often mention Igor, Oshawa, Janine, great, coaches, friendly, class, experience, months, family,

Love this gym.

    Ran by two of the best competitors in Ontario. Igor and Janine are top level athletes, martial artists and coaches. Amazing instructors and motivators when it comes to learning and working hard. Be sure to visit their gym… clean and modern with some great S&C equipment!

    Best place hands down for strength and conditioning and Brazilian jiu jitsu in Oshawa. Janine and Igor foster a very friendly environment for beginners and seasoned trainers alike! Can't speak about the kids class from experience but from what I've seen they take their role as these kids' mentors very seriously!

    Update: After seven months with Oshawa BJJ and Fitness; Janine, Igor and the community here has helped me achieve more than I ever thought possible. With their help, I was able to crush my eight month goal of entering my first competition in only four months and was a champion after eight months. I honestly didn't think I was capable of this and wouldn't have been without everyone here. Thank you 🙏 IMHO, there is no better place for bjj in the Durham region and beyond than Oshawa BJJ. The atmosphere is energetic and people are super chill. Janine and Igor are true champions both on and off the mats.

    So I've been going here for about 4 months now, just got my first stripe the other week and I personally love the place. My only issue is that in the gym area there doesn't seem to be that much leg workouts. But other than that the instructors are good, and they actually make you work unlike some other places that just play a bunch of games the whole class. Overall great experience.

    Amazing gym. Everybody from the coaches to other members are super welcoming. World class instruction, whether you're just trying to get a workout, or if you want to compete. Igor and Janine have created a space that isn't intimidating at all, everybody is there to cheer on your success and progression right from the start.

    I started with Oshawa BJJ 2 years ago and have absolutely LOVED it… the coaches are phenomenal, extremely supportive and passionate about what they do. Both Igor and Janine and legit athletes, amazing coaches, and great people… can’t say enough positive things about my experience!!

    I was searching for a Jiu-Jitsu school to start my next journey in martial arts, and I am very grateful to have found Oshawa BJJ. Coming from an extensive background in martial arts, I can testify to the fact that the teaching team is not only knowledgeable but also cares deeply for their students. Parents, if you are looking for a martial arts academy for your children, please choose wisely as there are a lot of phonies out there (I visited many before coming here). Good school and good instructors that teach with integrity are not found often, but Prof Igor and Janine as well as the rest of the teaching staff here are simply amazing!

    I’ve been training here for a month now and what an experience it has been. My only regret is not finding this gym sooner. Beginner classes are at a perfect beginner level. I’ve never felt completely lost during the class. Igor is an excellent coach. Each movement is explained in detail and can be easily understood by a beginner. In addition, everyone is very friendly and helpful. I guess my only negative would be I wish the beginner classes were at least 1 hour long instead of 45 mins. However, we are welcome to stay for the all levels class that starts right after but that goes for 1.5 hrs. All in all an excellent gym.

    We have just switched are son Ryder from a different Martial Arts to BJJ and this school was right across from our house. Love the way they treat the kids and parents night or day difference no favorites it is great to see. He was nervous and they made him feel good about himself. He is loving it and happy to go to class once more. If you have children or for your self check it out great people.

    My kids and I started taking classes here a few months ago, has been nothing but a great experience! Igor and Janine run a great gym, with great people.

    One of the best places for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu! Super clean and spacious facility with friendly staff. I highly recommend Oshawa BJJ and Fitness if you're looking for a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu academy!

    Great school, friendly instructors that are there to help you learn. As a student coming from another school that had closed, I felt immediately welcomed. Can’t recommend Oshawa BJJ enough!

  • 5/5 Paul W. 2 years ago on Google
    Igor and Janine were there during my first steps in Jiu-Jitsu 4 years ago. Igor is one of best coaches you will ever find and will challenge you at every step. Jiu-jitsu is one the hardest sports/lifestyles in the world but with the Mocaibers in your corner it will feel like fun, progressive journey. Also on your first day remember to pace your self

    My daughter loves going to Oshawa BJJ and Fitness for their kids classes! Been going there for about 10 months now. Both her and I have nothing bad to say. Both Janine and Igor are fantastic coaches who strive hard to keep Oshawa BJJ a fantastic tight knit family friendly atmosphere, whilst also maintaining their professionalism. Oshawa Bjj is the kind of place where you don’t only come to do Jui jitsu or Work on your fitness goals, it’s the kind of place you become a part of their family and you truly get 1% better every day.

    As someone who had moved to Canada recently, it was quite a nervous experience for me when it came to deciding on where to train. But from the get go, it was an amazing experience here as both Janine and Igor have been the friendliest of instructors while the training and instructions are amazing! Even the members at the gym are super welcoming and friendly and after training at Oshawa BJJ and Fitness for close to two months now, I recommend it to anyone who's looking to train Jiu Jitsu.

    I recently started training at Oshawa BJJ and it’s been great so far. The instructors are very knowledgeable and helpful. Everyone in class is also super friendly. Would recommend to anyone interested in taking up a martial art.

    When my son started at Oshawa BJJ and fitness I was nervous because he’s so young … that quickly changed when we entered the gym and we were welcomed with opened arms. The family atmosphere is so comforting & my son is quickly learning so many different things thanks to Janine & Igor. I can’t thank them enough for welcoming us into their BJJ family & can’t wait to see the things my son will accomplish in the future

    My son can be pretty anxious so it took him a little over a year to finally commit to get into BJJ. We wanted to find a place that would understand him and help him overcome his fear of being excluded. Oshawa BJJ is such a friendly and welcoming environment. My son looks forward to every class, and is eager to learn. Classes being available throughout the week and not being locked to certain days definitely helps with my unpredictable work schedule.

    I take the conditioning and hiit class at oshawa BJJ. My wife and kids take jiu-jitsu classes. The instruction and support from the coaching staff is excellent. The coaches have not only helped my family and I to achieve our goals but they always make sure we push ourselves to meet our greatest potential.
