Shawn Fritz Grappling Team

The Shawn Fritz Grappling Team, located at 110 North Main Street in Marysville, Ohio, is a health institution specializing in Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ). BJJ is a self-defense martial art and combat sport that focuses on grappling, ground fighting, and submission holds. The team emphasizes the skill of taking opponents to the ground, gaining dominant positions, and using techniques to force submissions. The training is based on the concept that smaller individuals can defend themselves against larger opponents through leverage and weight distribution. BJJ classes at the Shawn Fritz Grappling Team are suitable for both sport grappling and self-defense situations, with sparring and live drilling playing a significant role in training. The classes are open to all levels, with the first week of classes offered for free. Comfortable workout clothes are all that's needed, as uniforms are provided for borrowing. The classes are suitable for individuals of all fitness levels, with many students using BJJ as a way to improve their health and well-being.
