Your Westshore Jiu Jitsu Academy
Westshore is practically next door — a five-minute hop down N Dale Mabry from our academy — which makes us the closest serious Jiu Jitsu option for one of Tampa's busiest business districts. If you work near International Plaza, live near the airport corridor, or call the Westshore Marina District home, we're a short drive from wherever your day starts and ends.
A lot of our Westshore members squeeze training in around demanding work schedules — an early morning class before the office, or an evening session on the way home. Between our midday, evening, and Saturday classes, it's realistic to build a routine even on a packed calendar.
