About Bangkok Community BJJ
Empowering the Klong Toei community through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
Bangkok Community BJJ is a non-profit initiative dedicated to providing free Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) classes to children and youth in Bangkok's Klong Toei community.
Our mission is to use Jiu-Jitsu as a positive force for change — helping young people build confidence, discipline and resilience through the values and practice of martial arts. Classes are led by experienced black belt instructors in a safe, welcoming and ego-free environment.
We believe every child deserves access to opportunity, mentorship and a supportive community. Through Jiu-Jitsu, we aim to offer a path for personal growth and a brighter future for the kids of Klong Toei.
Bangkok Community BJJ is proudly affiliated with Grap101.org, a Thailand-based network dedicated to supporting social impact initiatives through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
