WELCOME TO OUR
BJJ ACADEMY
Welcome to Kairos Jiu Jitsu, a competitive BJJ academy in Middletown, CT! Here, we designed our training programs around the belief that the martial art goes beyond physical fitness and self-defense. Our team centers Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes around developing discipline, focus, and a championship mentality. Unlike many other martial arts, students can actively spar and progress quickly on the mats. This creates a place for everyone to train and grow. You can start at your own pace and work to become your best on the mat at Kairos!

History
Since opening in 2024, our mission has been to fill the void in competitive Jiu Jitsu programs in Connecticut. Academy founder Christos Ellinas found his passion in Jiu Jitsu and wanted to provide kids and adults a place to train seriously. Since opening, we’ve grown and trained some of the best youth athletes in the region. We’ve made sure to equip students with the necessary skills, tactics, and mentality to succeed. In everything we do, we strive to embody the meaning of our namesake, Kairos—“doing the right thing at the right time.”
