Starting 23.9. we’re officially offering a teens BJJ class. Trainings will be held every Tuesday from 5:30-7:00 PM. The training is aimed at teens ages 12-16 with or without prior experience. Since the class will be held in German, basic language skills are required. Aside from that it only takes a love for sports, interest in grappling and we will provide the rest! If the teens aren’t already members of the club, a one time registration fee plus a monthly fee of 27€ will be charged (25€ if another family member is already part of the club). This gives them access to the facilities, the BJJ training but also any other training session the club has to offer.

In order to participate parents will have to sign up their child via email to kids@bjjheidelberg.de.


Welcome to Heidelberg and the local jiu jitsu community! Often times people come to our beloved city and look for a place to train. At our place in Mühltalstraße 38 in Heidelberg Handschuhsheim you can just drop in and train with us for free. We are a part of Heidelberger Judo Club, just in case you´re researching the location, that´s what will come up at the address. We follow an open door policy, so if you´re visiting the city we´ll be happy to have you at one of our training sessions.

We train BJJ:

Monday 6:45 – 8:15 PM
Tuesday 5:30 – 7:00 PM (teens bjj class years 12-16)
Wednesday 6 – 7:30 PM
Thursday 6 – 7:30 PM (basics class – best suited for beginners)
Sunday 11 AM – 1 PM open mat (no instruction)

If you don´t have a car, you can reach the dojo by tram. Jump out at Hans-Thoma-Platz and walk a few hundred meters to Mühltalstraße 38. Once you entered the building, take the door to your left and you´ll be standing in the common room. It´s just a room to hang out and wait (you´ll probably meet parents of judo and karate kids there).

Inside the dojo just find some hands to shake and tell that person, that you´re visiting and you want to train. People are really helpful and welcoming in here.

The changing room for the men is right behind the common room. We will be happy to show you around, just ask. If you´re a female, the changing rooms are upstairs. So after you said hi, this is how you get there: enter the building and walk up the stairs in front of you. Upstairs take a left turn and find the women´s changing room. It´s easy.

If you feel the need to say hi digitally before you show up, you can reach us via email at visit@bjjheidelberg.de (my name is Ben, hi!). But it´s also totally acceptable to just show up and train.

There are only a few simple rules: be nice, smile, have fun and wear shoes off the mats when training or taking a break. We like to keep our place clean for everyone.

See you soon, oss!
