Zero Point GJJ Gent Gracie Jiu Jitsu - BJJ for self defense

23/08/2026

Some moments on the mats just mean a little more 🙏

Looking back at some moments from our training sessions over the past few weeks — from technical drills to some serious action on the mats. 💪🔥

But one moment in particular makes this post extra special for me…

My son has joined our team. ❤️

As a father, I’m incredibly proud and happy to have him training alongside me. And as a coach, it’s a privilege to help guide him and the next generation, together with our head coach Wim — passing on not only the techniques of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, but also the discipline, respect and mindset that come with it.

One generation passing it on to the next.
That’s something truly special. 👊🥋

More training. Same membership.

Whether you're already part of our team or you've been thinking about starting Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, there's never been a better time to join us.

We're enjoying a well-earned summer break, but we'll be back on the mats in the first week of August, ready to begin our biggest season yet.

🥋 Even during the season break, the learning never stops.

Yesterday, Wim had the opportunity to attend an inspiring seminar with Robin Gracie from Gracie Barcelona, hosted by Antonio Cornelius at Gracie Oostende.

A big thank you to Robin for sharing his knowledge, experience, and passion for Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. Seminars like these remind us that there is always something new to learn, no matter your level.

A special thank you as well to Antonio Cornelius and the Gracie Oostende team for the warm welcome and excellent organization. It was a great atmosphere on the mats and a pleasure to train together.

🥋 End of Season 1 – Thank You

What a first season it has been.

Together we've learned new techniques, improved our self-defense skills, earned stripes, overcome challenges, and shared countless rounds on the mats.

Like every Jiu-Jitsu journey, there were highs and lows: breakthroughs, setbacks, sore muscles, a few injuries, plenty of laughs, and lots of growth. Through it all, we kept showing up, supporting each other, and moving forward as a team.

Looking through some of the group photos from this season says it all. The smiles after training, the group pictures, the celebrations, the hard work, and the friendships we've built along the way remind us that Gracie Jiu-Jitsu is about much more than techniques.

More than anything, this season reminded us that Gracie Jiu-Jitsu is about people. The encouragement, team spirit, and sense of belonging are what make this community special.

To every member who trained with us this season: thank you 🙏.
Your commitment, trust, and positivity helped build something we're proud of.

Enjoy the break, and we'll see you back on the mats next season.

🥋🦶 Season finale: Introduction to Leg Locks at Zero Point GJJ Gent

This week we wrapped up the season with an introduction to leg locks. The goal wasn't to master the subject in a single class, but to make everyone aware that the lower body represents a very different area of grappling, with its own positions, controls, concepts, and submissions.

From a self-defense perspective, our focus is usually on positional control, escapes, standing situations, and upper-body attacks. Leg locks are therefore not a major part of our regular curriculum. That said, understanding them can be useful, especially when grappling exchanges end up on the ground and opportunities arise from positions where upper-body attacks are less accessible.

During class we explored the Irimi Ashi Garami position and introduced the fundamentals of the Straight Ankle Lock. For many, this was a first look at a part of grappling that requires a different way of thinking about control, balance, and submission mechanics.

This was just an introduction. Next season we'll spend more time exploring leg lock positions, entries, control, defense, and the principles that make them effective.

🥋🤝 Familiar face today at Zero Point GJJ Gent!

Today we had the pleasure of having from Quicksand BJJ on our mats. It's always great to reconnect with training partners and friends from the grappling community.

Different styles, good exchanges, tough rounds, and plenty of smiles along the way. Sessions like these remind us how strong and welcoming the Jiu-Jitsu community can be.

Thanks for dropping by, Jeroen. We appreciate the visit and hope to see you back soon! 🙏

Training experiment today at Zero Point GJJ Gent🥋👕

Today we switched things up and trained in regular street T-shirts instead of our usual gear. The goal was to explore how clothing can affect grips, control, and choke opportunities in realistic situations.

It quickly became clear that everyday clothing can become a powerful tool—although some T-shirts didn't survive the session 😅. A few torn collars and stretched seams were the price of learning!

Great atmosphere, lots of laughs, and some interesting technical insights along the way. Swipe through for examples of the different positions we worked on.

🥋 Why we train from standing 🥋

In sport BJJ, it's common to see athletes pull guard and voluntarily sit down to bring the fight to the ground. While that can be an effective strategy in competition, it's not something you would typically want to do in a self-defense situation.

That's why we spend time training takedowns, clinch work, and off-balancing techniques. The goal is to safely take your opponent to the ground while maintaining control and staying in a dominant position.

Self-defense doesn't start on the ground—it starts standing. 👊
