Train alongside medalists and a three-time world champion, and take your game from the local mats to the IBJJF world stage.
If competition is your thing, our BJJ competition team in Oakdale is where you sharpen it. You train with people who compete at the local and national level, partners who push you every round and pull the best Jiu-Jitsu out of you.
Whether you are lining up for your very first match or chasing a title, you get real coaching, a game plan, and a room full of teammates who want to see you win. It all builds on the same adult program, in both gi and no-gi.
On the Competition Mat
We meet you where you are, whether that is your first local tournament or the biggest events in the sport.
Local PRIDE events run four times a year, right here on Long Island. They are the perfect way to get your feet wet in competition against other local schools in a supportive setting.
When you are ready to test yourself against the best, we prep you for the biggest tournaments in the sport, from the Pans to the IBJJF Opens and the World Championship.
Proven on the Podium
Professor Milton Regis is a 6th-degree black belt and three-time world champion, and the competitive culture he built runs all the way through the team. Our students consistently step onto the podium at events big and small.
When you train here, you are surrounded by people who know what it takes to win, and who are invested in helping you get there.
Competition training is its own kind of preparation. We build the physical, technical, and mental side together so you step onto the mat ready for anything.
Cornered by Champions
Teammates who push each other every round.
This is by far the best Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu school on Long Island. A traditional school focused on developing technical skill through hard work and discipline, but always welcoming and warm.
The camaraderie at Kioto is like nothing I have experienced. Kioto is our home away from home and I consider all my training partners family.
My four children and I have studied here for 15 years. The instruction is high quality and the people are of the highest character.
Not at all. Competition is completely optional. Plenty of students never compete and love it here. The team is simply there for anyone who wants to test their Jiu-Jitsu.
The local Long Island PRIDE events are the perfect first step. They run four times a year against other local schools, so you can get your feet wet in a supportive setting close to home.
Everything from local PRIDE events to the biggest stages in the sport, including the Pans, the IBJJF Opens, and the World Championship.
No specific belt is required. If you are willing to be pushed and put in the work, there is a spot for you on the mat. Talk to a coach about the right next event for you.
