20:30 GRAPPLING TUES & THURS 🤼‍♂️
Are the other grappling classes too busy for you? And do you want to wrestle more?
Every Tuesday and Thursday we run a 20:30-21:30 grappling class.

They're less crowded, ensuring more space on the mats for wrestling, more personal attention from the coach and time to ask lots of questions.

It's also a perfect option for those who work late, prefer training nogi over gi or just simply want to training later in the day.

SUMMER SCHEDULE: JULY 18th - August 30th
Read below for the adjustments to our schedule for summer holidays:

👨‍👦Mini-BJJ
A summer break for the mini-BJJ lessons. Coming Wednesday 22/07 is the last lesson until the holidays are over. Don't worry, we'll make sure your lesson card remains valid until well after the holiday.

🧒Kids and teens
The teen lessons on Tuesdays and Thursdays will be cancelled. The lessons on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 17:00 will be kids and teen lessons. This way, we ensure that there are enough training partners for our young members, even in a period when many kids and teenagers are travelling.

The nogi lesson and the kids competition training on Saturday will continue as usual during this period.

📝 Introduction course
The introduction courses for this academic year are completely sold out and we will now have a short summer break. We will be back with another course on August 26th,

If you would like to start with BJJ in the meantime, you can book a trial lesson: https://havenbjj.nl/proefles/.

Have a great summer ☀️

OVERHOOK ARMBAR FROM CLOSED GUARD
This is a great way of dealing with an opponent who is able to posture up. They think they’re slipping out and then you can catch them with a nasty armbar. And if you’ve ever sparred w/ you know for a fact your arms aren’t safe⛓️‍💥

3 tips for better recovery 🛌
Recovery is one of the most overlooked parts of training. As athletes, we often focus on what happens on the mats: hard rounds, extra sessions, and improving our jiu-jitsu. But do you put the same effort into what happens off the mats?

What many people don't realise is that the progress doesn't only happen during training itself. It happens when we recover from the work we've done.

In reality, those who prioritise recovery can train harder, perform better, and stay injury-free for longer. Without enough rest, your body never gets the chance to fully adapt to training.

Whether you're a hobbyist or a professional athlete, recovery should be taken just as seriously as training itself. Time and time again, we see that athletes who:
• Get enough sleep
• Eat well to support recovery
• Take physical and mental rest seriously

make far greater progress than those who constantly push harder without allowing time to recover.

So remember: recovery isn't time off from training. Recovery IS training.
