TRAINING

We take a different approach to Jiu Jitsu. Too much instruction, repetition and correction make learning worse. The Zenyo approach helps you speed up your progress through the science of skill.

Zenyo Jiu Jitsu is a pioneer in bringing this different approach to learning Jiu Jitsu. We use the best ideas from research to guide our practice. This results in fast-paced classes — for kids and adults — that are fun, challenging, a great workout and more effective than with traditional methods.

An Oasis From Conformity

One of our athletes describes Zenyo as an “oasis from conformity and rigidity.” Research shows that we learn best with freedom to make mistakes while exploring new things. 

WHAT DO WE DO?

A Break From Tradition

This new stye of training is helping athletes progress quicker, with less frustration and more enjoyment. We are having success in the gym and in competition. How do we do it?

We work with a sophisticated motor learning theory, called differential learning, but employ it in a way that is easy to understand and use. The idea is to take your natural movements, what you already know how to do, and play with them in different ways.

"Differential learning is like mental stretching. It makes me feel mentally limber and clear headed. If my awareness was a clouded window at the start of class, by the end I feel like it has been windexxed so I am more able to see and feel what is actually happening."
