Leake BJJ is a family oriented jiu jitsu academy, where we use the art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) to equip students with knowledge that builds confidence and self-esteem and improves their physical fitness. We offer BJJ classes for your entire family, where it is easy for new students to join at any time, regardless of experience or skill level. Every class includes self-defense that can be used in the real world as well as tournament techniques for students who choose to participate in competitions.

We strongly believe everyone needs jiu jitsu in their life and strive to make it as affordable as possible to train in the positive environment of our academy, where we have multiple black belts, including Professor Michael Leake. Our program offers gi (uniform) jiu jitsu, no-gi jiu jitsu, as well as striking and Maju Bela Diri classes. If you are in the southwest Missouri area near Nixa / Ozark / Springfield area we invite you to stop in and meet our amazing coaches and students.

We pride ourselves on excellent youth and adult programs, where we teach students skills that will build their self-esteem to help them defend against the of bullies of the world, help them build character to succeed in the face of adversity, build a community of peers, and improve physical fitness.

We consider it a privilege to give back to our local community by offering a 50% tuition discount to our valued first responders (police, fire, EMT personnel). We are partners with the Adopt-a-Cop and We Defy programs to help students with the cost of tuition.

When families choose to enroll multiple family members together we offer the Family Tuition plan.  We also offer other discounts, including a Military discount.

We want you to feel confident that Leake BJJ is the right academy for you. We encourage you to stop in and observe a class or take advantage of participating in a free trial class!
