New to Open Guard? Start here. Whether you're looking for fitness, self-defense, competition prep, or a safe space for your youth to grow, we have a path for you.
At Open Guard, we believe martial arts is for everyone, not just athletes or competitors. Our mats are a safe, ego-free space where families, beginners, and seasoned practitioners train side by side.
We focus on three pillars: fitness that builds real-world strength and endurance, self-defense rooted in proven technique and situational awareness, and personal growth that develops discipline, resilience, and confidence beyond the mats.
As a proud Team Curran affiliate for over 10 years under the Pedro Sauer lineage, every class follows a structured, road-tested curriculum designed for safe, consistent progress at every level. Whether you're stepping on the mats for the first time or getting back into BJJ, you belong here.
