Rio Jitsu offers Judo classes for adults and kids (6+) in Apple Valley. Our program is USA Judo certified and counts with two Judo Black Belts: Sensei Brandon Holmberg and Sensei Zac Peterson. On our Kids Judo program, Sensei Brant Lander, Sensei Monique Lander (both Judo Brown Belts) and Sensei Kelsey Forman (Judo Green Belt) lead the group. They are also BJJ practitioners: Sensei Brandon, Sensei Kelsey and Sensei Zac are BJJ Black Belts, while Sensei Brant is a BJJ Brown Belt and Sensei Monique is a BJJ Purple Belt. This feature adds to the class, since all of our instructors understand how these two martial arts can connect and their different scenarios and rules.
If you are looking to improve your standing game in BJJ or learn a new skill, our program is for you. We don’t require any previous experience.
