We Know What You’re Thinking

The “What Ifs”
stop here.

” What if I look ridiculous because I’m not an expert? “
” What if I get injured and can’t work on Monday? “
” What if I pay for a membership and realize it’s not for me? “

And just like that, another week slips by. Friday arrives, and you’re still in the same spot. That restless energy stays trapped. That community you wanted stays an idea.
There is a place in East Van where that cycle stops.


Zero Ego

Beginners aren’t just “tolerated”. They are the heart of our mats.


Safety First

Technique always comes before intensity.


Real Connection

You can show up knowing nothing, and that is perfectly okay.

We Know What You’re Thinking

“I’ve spent 20 years on the mats and competed at the World Championships, but here is the truth: The hardest part of Jiu-Jitsu is walking through the front door.”

Norm has trained many martial arts since he was a child and in 2005 added MMA and Jiu-Jitsu to the list. He joined Alliance Vancouver in 2014 and today focuses 100% of his training on Jiu-Jitsu. Norm teaches across all skill levels and has taught students both in Canada and overseas. As well as teaching Norm is a very committed student of Jiu-Jitsu having spent time training alongside many notable competitors such as Leo Nogueira, Lucas Lepri, and Bernardo Faria to name just a few. As a seasoned competitor and teacher Norm offers his students a wealth of experience and knowledge.

I’ve been training brazilian jiu jitsu for about 15 years in the Lower Mainland and can confidently tell you Alliance has very experienced and knowledgeable coaches. Had the pleasure of rolling with JP and a few others and I can’t wait to be back for more open mat sessions.

I had the pleasure of competing against one of their youth athletes, as an adult my self. I found the coaches conducted them selves very professionally and respectfully. I just wanted to give that review here. The coaches seemed very supportive and they knew what they were talking about.I believe you would be in good hands with this school.

This gym has the perfect balance of competitiveness and friendliness. Everyone is genuinely nice and helpful in an environment that encourages each student to push themselves. All of the instructors are laid back but very professional. The facility is well maintained and classes always run on time. I couldn’t ask for more.

Why Alliance Vancouver

The Core
Advantage.

Elite Pedigree, Zero Ego

We hold 13 World Titles as an organization, but we don’t lead with medals. We lead with respect. Here, world-class technique is shared, not gatekept.

A Structured Path

No chaos. No “random” drills. Our curriculum for beginners is a deliberate, step-by-step roadmap designed for the adult brain. You’ll see progress every single week.

Built for Your Life

Premium facility in East Van with showers and gear ready for you. Come in, train hard, and get back to your day seamlessly.

The “Click” Moment

It’s not just fighting.
It’s problem-solving.

Most people quit the gym because it’s boring. Jiu-Jitsu is different. It’s “human chess” a language of movement that forces your brain to switch off the outside world and focus entirely on the present.

Just show up in comfortable workout clothes (shorts and a t-shirt). We’ll provide everything else you need for your introductory session. No specialized gear required to start.

We take pride in our team identity, but we’re also practical. If you already have a Gi, bring it along and we’ll chat about how it fits with our academy standards.

Beyond the physical conditioning, expect a sharper mind, better stress management, and a massive boost in confidence. You’ll learn how to solve complex problems under pressure — a skill that translates directly to your professional life.

Yes. While we thrive on consistency and community, we offer drop-in rates for visitors and short-term passes for those with a busy schedule.

You’ll fit right in. BJJ is a visual language, and our team is multilingual including Spanish speakers.

We offer morning, noon, and evening sessions from Monday to Saturday to fit your professional life.
