We are dedicated to sharing the art of  Jiu Jitsu and strive to guide you into the beauty, art, and community of the Jiu Jitsu lifestyle. Honor, Integrity, Humbleness, Respect, and Loyalty are some of the key cornerstones that we train to achieve. We will do this by establishing a family/team atmosphere where all are welcome. We want our Blackstone Jiu Jitsu family to be warriors on and off the mat. Warriors are responsible citizens who possess martial characteristics, constantly seek self-improvement, and seek to improve those around them, their community, and their society. Warriors lead by example and understand that one must commit to something greater than oneself.
