The #1 BJJ & Submission Grappling Competition Team In MD, DC & VA Wants To Know…

Do You Wanna Compete
In Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu?

Do You Wanna WIN
BJJ & Grappling Tournaments?

If you answered “YES” to those questions, then pay close attention to what we’re about to share with you… because you’re about to get UNDENIABLE PROOF that Lloyd Irvin’s MMA & Grappling Academy is the absolute BEST Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) academy for people like you who have a thirst for competition – and more importantly, have the desire to WIN in BJJ and grappling competitions.

On top of that, we’re about to share with you the common problems that aspiring competitors have when they’re looking for the best possible place to train in order to become BJJ or submission grappling champions.

Here’s one of the major problems…

With so many MMA, BJJ and grappling schools popping up all over the country, it’s hard to make an educated decision when you don’t know exactly what to look for. The fact is there are certain key factors and success principles you absolutely must watch out for when searching for the best school to suit your needs as a competitor and aspiring champion.

Ask yourself the following questions:

  • If you’re going to compete, wouldn’t you like to be the absolute BEST competitor you could possibly be?
  • If you know you have it in you to become a champion, then wouldn’t you want to give yourself the best opportunity to become the best?
  • Wouldn’t you want to train with the best?
  • Wouldn’t you want to get involved with the most accomplished competition team in the MD, VA & DC area?

YES! Of course you would! That’s a “no-brainer.” There’s not a “serious” person on this planet who wouldn’t answer YES to every single one of those important questions!

Picture this…

You want to compete. You don’t just wanna “go out there and see what you can do,” you want to WIN. You’re serious about training and you know you want to find the best possible school that can suit your training needs.

Now here’s the big problem – the “BUT” – YOU MAY NOT KNOW EXACTLY WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN ORDER TO GET THE BEST TRAINING!

You may know some of what you WANT, but you might not know everything you truly NEED to become a phenomenal competitor.

So, what we’re going to do for you is give you a list of everything you NEED to give yourself the best opportunity to become a champion in submission grappling or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ).

This way, you’ll have the precise information you’ll need to make an educated and well-informed decision on where you choose to pursue your competitive dreams.

We guarantee that before you even finish looking over this page, you’ll know that when it comes to BJJ and grappling instruction in the Washington DC Metro area, we are unquestionably the best. Yes, we know that’s a bold statement but we’re going to PROVE it to you with what our instructors, and more importantly, our happily-involved students have accomplished in competition.

Meet our head instructor, Lloyd Irvin

On top of being a champion competitor, Lloyd is also author and producer of several books and training programs geared specifically toward grapplers who want to become the best at what they do, like “The Grappling Game Plan” and “NHB Strength Training” and many more.

So everything said about Lloyd Irvin’s competitive background, scratch it – because it’s more about what our students have done and are doing now on a consistent basis that will PROVE without a shadow of a doubt that we can turn YOU into a champion grappling competitor.

This brings us to one of the key factors you should look out for when searching for the best grappling and BJJ school for people who want to compete.

When looking at schools, you need to ask this question:

“What Have Their Students Done In Competition?”

Good question.

Here’s the bottom line: If a team has a reputation of consistently producing champions at every BJJ belt level and every grappling division, then it’s a safe bet that if you join that team and follow the team’s system of success, you too can become a champion.

As a team, we take great pride in what our students have accomplished and what our current happily-involved students are doing now in competitions across the world.

This brings us to our first “Team Lloyd Irvin Case Study.”

Why Team Lloyd Irvin Competitors Succeed

One of the reasons why our students succeed is because they have quality training partners to workout with every day and every practice. This is yet another “key factor” to look for in a quality competition academy. It’s important to be around people with similar goals as you. It’s vital for any competitor to train with others who take their training just as seriously as you take yours.

Team Training Under The Watchful Eyes Of Our Dedicated, World-Champion Instructors ...


Another key factor that ties into having awesome teammates by your side is having real SUPPORT.
For example, our teammates support each other at every practice, every competition, every fight, and every tournament. They are there to push you to higher levels, to cheer you on, to get you going and be there for you through the rough patches you may have. After all, this sport is tough – it isn’t for wimps, whiners or excuse-makers. Our students feel great knowing they are heading into battle with their team by their side, helping them, supporting them.

Team Lloyd Irvin Supports Their Teammates!

Along with the support, you’ll get the peace of mind knowing that you’re training with students who are DEDICATED to achieving their goals, not just some in and out wannabes who just show up on the mats here and there so they can tell their friends they train. Our instructors set themselves at a higher standard and they expect the same from our students. In order to become a champion you must have desire, you must have a strong will to win, and you must be dedicated. And when you look at what we have done as a team, you can see clearly just how dedicated we are to developing champions.

In fact, take a look at what we’ve done as a team at 2 of the world’s biggest submission grappling tournaments, Grapplers Quest and NAGA.

Our Results Speak For Themselves
