Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Welcome to Havelock Jiu Jitsu, the premier facility for Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) and mixed martial arts (MMA), and the only Premier International and Vitor "Shaolin" Ribeiro affiliated school in the Coastal North Carolina area.

Havelock Jiu Jitsu head instructors George and Christopher Yulee are certified by legendary fighters Rigan Machado and his student Marcos Santos, and Ailson “Jucão” Henrique Brites and they now train exculsively under Vitor "Shaolin" Ribeiro, 3 time Brazilain World Champion.

These qualifications make George Yulee one of the most sought-after instructors in the area for both for novice students beginning their study of the art and advanced students looking to refine their technique.

BJJ is the definitive fighting style, and with its effectiveness in the UFC it is also the fastest growing sport in the world today.

No matter what your age, size or gender, BJJ can help you meet your training goals. As a self-defense system, it teaches battle-tested techniques that not only help you to protect yourself but also to build the self-confidence that makes you less likely to be a victim in the first place.

As a fitness program, BJJ develops the kind of functional strength and endurance that will benefit even the elite athlete. Havelock Jiu-Jitsu provides a fun and structured environment where you will train with other people striving to meet these same goals.

As a student at Premier Martial Arts, expect to learn the very best ways to train and practice. Expect to be coached in the most practical and effective methods of self-defense. And understand that Coach Yulee's Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu isn't just about self-defense, competitive Jiu-Jitsu, or even physical fitness, "it's about personal empowerment, discipline, confidence, and respect. We are focused on fitness, self defense, mind & body conditioning, womens self defense and childrens classes".

Every student is important and we are fully committed to providing extraordinary instruction with an emphasis on safety, technical proficiency, and a focus on developing a constructive and positive attitude.
