Commit to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Community
The Shanghai Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy (SHBJJ) is one of the finest academies of Brazilian jiu-jitsu in Asia. Established in 2004, we helped pioneer the art of BJJ in China and is still at the forefront of professional BJJ education on Mainland China.


Our BJJ class structure and progression systems are designed to allow ease of learning and allows our students to progress at their own pace while challenging them to bring out their best. At SHBJJ Academy we offer a relaxed, friendly martial arts training environment. Students with no martial arts experience will find the training fun and intuitive. Those with previous martial arts training will see how to integrate their existing skills into the ground game.

In the Greek alphabet, the letter D, or Delta, is represented by a triangle. When we use Delta in mathematics, it represents change. That is what we focus on. Change of the individual, physically, mentally, and emotionally. By challenging ourselves regularly through discipline, effort, and experimentation, we can change ourselves and those around us. Besides change, the triangle also reminds us of one of Archimedes’ (287 – 212 BC) quotes, “Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world.”A triangle is an efficient fulcrum, and a reminder that change does not come through brute strength alone, but through the technical and leveraged application of the correct force. Given the right techniques and knowing when and where to apply them, we can train to be the change we seek to embody.
