What separates Phoenix JKD from other BJJ
schools is the incorporation of the state of
the art training techniques that allow students
to acquire skill quickly and efficiently! We
have no desire to prolong training needlessly
and our main goal is for students to quickly
gain skill in competition and real life self
defense. Following the JKD training
philosophy, gaining skill is a 3 step process.
First you learn the technique in as perfect
form as possible. Then you practice the
technique with moderate resistance. Finally
you spare the technique in a realistic and live
manner.
Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, the most effective self-
defense art for ground fighting is taught at
Phoenix JKD Jiu-jitsu Training Center.
Mr. Moosavi has been training in that art
since 1992. He is one of the top black belts
in Brazilian Jiujitsu having received his
rank by actually traveling to Brazil to test
his skill authentically in Brazilian Jiujitsu.
He is representing GFTeam, founded and
led by Master Julio Cesar Pereira - one of
the most well known and competitive
Jiujitsu organizations in Rio de Janeiro and
around the world.
Shahram Moosavi’s training lineage in
Jiujitsu goes back to not only Kanō Jigorō,
Mitsuyo Maeda, Oswaldo Fadda, but also,
to Carlson Gracie and Hélio Gracie, all of
whom contributed greatly to the expansion
of the science and art of Jiujitsu. We will
forever be thankful for their efforts in the
early development of the art!
Today what Professor Shahram Moosavi
has done, which is quite unique in order to
advance his Brazilian Jiujitsu students is
to utilize elements from not only Persian
Wrestling, but also Western Wrestling,
Russian Sambo, Catch Wrestling, and
some of the most useful principles from
both JKD concepts and Filipino Kali in
order to enhance the students’
understanding of Brazilian Jiujitsu, both in
terms of its intuitive application of forces,
but also, its general understanding of
physics and geometry.
Regardless of one’s age and abilities,
learning ground fighting would be a
necessary elements and one of the four
ranges (kicking, punching,
trapping/clinching, and ground fighting)
that a fight could occur in.
Since one cannot pick and choose one’s
range in a fight, it is imperative to become
familiar with all four ranges and be able to
easily move in and out of those ranges
with confidence. Those who lack Jiujitsu
training could never claim to have grasped
the totality of self-defense.
Here at Shahram Moosavi’s Jiujitsu
training center, we train with both Kimonos
(Gi uniforms) as well as without kimonos.
Also, those who are interested in sports
Jiujitsu are also encouraged to participate
in those events since they can enhance
your natural abilities and being able to act
under pressure. Keep in mind, most of the
sports Jiujitsu positions and submissions
are directly applied to real fights and in
only few cases there may be some slight
differences between Jiujitsu used in street
as suppose to sports competition aspect of
Brazilian Jiujitsu. Competitions are
encouraged but are not a mandatory
aspect of our Jiujitsu curriculum.
One other aspect of Brazilian Jiujitsu
which we consider very important is that
the art has also proved itself to be a great
tool for a healthy social setting and a great
platform for not only adults to thrive on,
but also for children to be involved. We
have a very healthy group environment
that can act as a positive force in people’s
lives as they participate in with a great
team of athletes that constantly reinforce
health, longevity, and discipline with the
rest of teammates.
Injury prevention, strength and stamina
development, nutritional intake, balancing
body chemistry, as well as emotional and
psychological health are always taught and
mentioned in classes, workshops, and
seminars.
For private, semi private and accelerated
programs, you can contact the Training
Center or the Institute for further
guidelines.
