Living healthy can be a lot of fun, especially when you’re doing so with people who care about your progress as much as you do. Even though martial arts (and especially Brazilian Jiu Jitsu) is a one-on-one activity, we still consider ourselves as part of a team.

Insight Brazilian Jiu Jitsu™ Headquarters is located in Bastrop, TX 78602 – just minutes away from Austin, Cedar Creek, Elgin, Smithville and Giddings. We offer a family-friendly environment for men, women and children to develop their submission grappling skills. If your goal is to compete in BJJ tournaments, fight MMA, learn self-defense or just be a healthier you; we can help you achieve your goals.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) is the most efficient martial art on the planet; allowing you to control your opponent with minimal effort, and without causing harm to each other. BJJ also has self-defense applications that maximize one’s efficiency to fend off an attacker.

Owner and head Brazilian Jiu Jitsu instructor Alex Henley is an IBJJF and NAGA Champion with years of instructional experience with adults and children of all body types. Alex is also a certified (civilian) Judo Black Belt and Level 1 Army Combatives Trainer. He and our other instructors can help you hone the best strategy for your size, weight, strengths and weaknesses.
