North Star Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a Brazilian jiu-jitsu academy in Prescott Valley, Arizona, which its owner describes as the first jiu-jitsu school in town. It opened to spare local students a long commute to train elsewhere. The program covers both gi and no-gi for adults of all levels, with separate classes for young children, older kids, home-school students and women, plus open mats for rolling. The gym is led by Michael Kaplan, a second-degree black belt and IBJJF Pan American champion who began training in 2010 and moved to the area in 2019. Brown belt Dylan Doherty helps run the kids program. New students can try a class free, and discounts exist for law enforcement, military, veterans and firefighters.
