NEWS AND UPDATES
WELCOME TO
SAN TAN JIU-JITSU
Bill & Olivia Walker are transplants to the Gilbert, Queen Creek, San Tan Valley area from Seattle, Wa. Married for over 20 years, we have a unique understanding about creating an environment that competitors, couples, hobbyist, and everyone in between can enjoy.
LINEAGE MATTERS
One thing that keeps Jiu-Jitsu authentic is that we have accountability with our lineage. Bill & Olivia have been proudly promoted and are affiliated with 4th Degree Black Belt Andrew Solhiem & Cascade Jiu-Jitsu.
YOU WANT IT? WE GOT IT
At San Tan Jiu-Jitsu located in Gilbert, AZ. We believe Jiu-Jitsu is a great way to get in shape, which means you do not need to get in shape before you start Jiu-Jitsu. You get in shape with Jiu-Jitsu.
We also believe the standing position & takedowns are a crucial and often neglected area of modern Jiu-Jitsu. This is why we are always working our Judo for Jiu-Jitsu & Wrestling. We take the most applicable techniques from these sports and apply them to self defense and sport Jiu-Jitsu rules.
We also believe the best self defense martial arts are the ones with full effort sparring and an organized sporting aspect to help pressure test techniques and keeping the fluff out of the arts.
