At Alliance Vancouver, we take pride in delivering the highest level of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instruction in a family-friendly environment. We believe that anyone can benefit from Jiu-Jitsu, so long as they’re presented with a well-constructed curriculum and a safe environment. We welcome people from all walks of life, no matter what age, fitness level, creed or other. Whether you are looking to place your 1-year-old into her very first martial arts class, trying martial arts yourself for the first time or looking to take your competitive career to the next level, we have something designed specifically for you.

Our coaches are certified in the Alliance methodology and are accomplished international competitors. Today, their sole focus is on passing knowledge to their students and leading towards a deeper understanding of the art. Edson Oliveira and Walter Buse are both black belts under Alliance founder and multiple-time World Champion Fabio Gurgel and our team’s connection with Alliance headquarters in Sao Paulo Brazil allows for students to travel, train and compete alongside the most successful competition team in the history of our sport.
