ADOPT A COP BJJ

To address critical gaps in the department-funded training of front line police officers we, Peace Garden Grappling Club, decided to become a part of the adopt a cop program. Through this program we are able to provide free or reduced rate memberships to police officers. Officers are sponsored until they achieve the rank of blue belt, which typically takes 12-18 months.

Police officers often find themselves in volatile situations which can quickly turn deadly. In these combative situations, being the more skilled grappler allows the officer a greater amount of control over the situation, which decreases the likelihood of injury or death for both officer and suspect.

Being a police officer is one of the most selfless, dangerous, and important jobs in our world today.  Investing in our officers is an investment in our communities.  Adopt A Cop BJJ aims to create a more resilient and more effective police force, improve police relations around our country, and ultimately reduce the incidence of police-involved shootings and deaths.

If you are or know any police officers who would like to try out our classes, please reach out to us with questions. You can learn more about the Adopt-A-Cop program HERE.
