About
Kawartha Lakes BJJ & Fitness is owned and operated by the Arancibia Family. The Arancibia Family is a Jiu Jitsu family, steeped in the martial art for generations, and opened Kawartha Lakes BJJ & Fitness as a place to share their love for the sport with people of all ages, and as a destination for the local BJJ and grappling community to experience top-notch training.
Many of the coaches/trainers on staff and in the gym are part of the family. Coaches Alex Arancibia and Segundo Arancibia have won Gold medals in numerous sanctioned Jiu Jitsu competitions regionally and internationally, and award-winning BJJ competitors and instructors affiliated with nearby Whitby, Ontario’s Team DNA BJJ also frequently teach at Kawartha Lakes BJJ & Fitness.
BJJ is such an important part of the Arancibia Family, that Kawartha Lakes BJJ & Fitness offers family-oriented Brazilian Jiu Jitsu courses, to bring the same opportunity for bonding through building skill, strength, and confidence together to other parents and kids.
