Technique first
We teach the GFTeam game — pressure, posture, and timing — so every student learns to solve problems on the mat.

GRAPPLINGFIGHT TEAMKUWAIT
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for every body in the room — from five years old to black belt. Technique, character, and a team that does not stop.
The academy
THE GENTLE ART. THE FIGHTING TEAM.
GFTeam Kuwait is the local chapter of Grappling Fight Team — one of the most decorated academies in Rio de Janeiro. The team was brought to Kuwait from Brazil in 2014 by Professor Abdulrahman AlHamdan, and is now led by Professor Jarrah Alhazza.
Three black belt assistant coaches — Abdullah Aljasmi, Mubarak Alsultan, and Saleh Almayyas — keep the standard high every night on the mats. Kids train from age 5. Adults start on day one. Competitors take the work on the road.
