Essencia Jiu Jitsu is a family-oriented Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu academy in Trumbull, Connecticut, founded by Professor Marcello Lima, a black belt who is also a US Army veteran and a police officer. The academy is a proud affiliate of the Jiu Jikan team, whose lineage runs through Master Kaxambu, Hilton Leão, Yoshio Kamada and Hélio Gracie. It offers separate kids' classes by age group, from the youngest beginners up to teens, along with adult classes that include a Fundamentals class for newcomers and a weekly no-gi session. Early-morning, evening and Saturday sessions make it easy to fit training around work and school. The academy is registered with the IBJJF and USBJJF, and new students can start with a free trial.
