Grapple Lab BJJ is a Brazilian jiu-jitsu academy in midtown Toronto, near Yonge and Davisville, training inside the TKMT space. Founded in 2007 as Budokan Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and rebranded in 2017, it carries the Nova União lineage through Cesar Rezek Alves and André Pederneiras. Classes run in both gi and no-gi and follow a rotating curriculum of warm-up, drilling and situational sparring, with a focus on self-defence, fitness and competition. The academy is for adults and teens aged 15 and up, and is taught by a team of black belts. Newcomers start with a Saturday Fundamentals class and a free trial week with loaner gi provided.
