jiu jitsu

is for everyone

Carlson Gracie Team Karachi opened on the 2nd of May 2016 as Pakistan's first dedicated Brazilian Jiu Jitsu academy.

We originally launched as Karachi Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Academy - and two years later were officially part of the Official Carlson Gracie Federation. Our philosophy has always been of the 'old school' Carlson Gracie Team - Takedown, control, submit.

COntinuing the lineage

Our instructor - Alisha Ahmad - trained under Wilson Jr. Cretaro, Dickie Martin, and Simon Hayes at Carlson Gracie London for many years, and received all his belts, Blue, Purple, Brown, and Black from his instructors there.

Alisha is passionate about Jiu Jitsu and his students; he competes locally and internationally whenever the opportunity presents itself.
