Testimonials I have trained at a few academies and this has to be one of the best looking places that I've been to. Free Parking, Very clean facility and awesome customer service. The training is incredible. Professor Josef embodies the essence of Jiu-jitsu. I'm a 220 lbs man and at 139 lbs he is able to take me down, control me and submit me at will. He brings light to positions that I wasn’t able to grasp training with other instructors because he is very active competitor and alot of other instructors don't put their reputation and skills to the test by stepping in the ring. Michelle Ramos My 6 year old son has been training with Sensei Josef for about 7 months now and I am amazed at how much he has learned. His education extends beyond the Jiu-Jitsu training. Not only does my son learn self defense but he learns about conditioning and respect for himself and for others. Sensei is a great teacher. I plan on signing my daughter up as well when she is old enough. Alex Britez I've trained in many schools before finding a home at Cutting Edge. There are no egos, great training partners, and amazing instruction. There are classes for intense training along with a great beginners program. I highly recommend Cutting Edge to anyone interested in keeping healthy, or looking to challenge themselves. George Albanese I've been fortunate enough to know Professor Josef for 12 years now. I must say, I've never met a person in my life that's so dedicated to whatever it is that they do as he. He's always been the type of person to give 110% and I've always admired that about him. You can rest assure that when I have children, I'll be sending them his way. Not only for the top notch Jiu-Jitsu training, but to pick up all the positive qualities in life that has made Professor Josef the type of person that he is today...

Professor Josef”Ze Cobra” Manuel is one of the top competitors in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu & Submission Grappling / No-Gi in the Tri-State Area. He holds countless victories over World Class Competitors and has taken numerous titles in the Nation’s Top Tournaments. His relentless and aggressive style of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu & Submission Grappling / No-Gi has made him a favorite in the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu & Mixed Martial Arts Community. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art and combat sport that focuses on Grappling / No-Gi and especially ground fighting with the goal of gaining a dominant position and using joint-locks and chokeholds to force an opponent to submit or be knocked out depending on what submission method is used. The art was based on early 20th century Kodokan Judo , which was itself then a recently-developed system (founded in 1882), based on multiple schools (or Ryu) of Japanese Jujutsu. It promotes the principle that a smaller, weaker person using leverage and proper technique can successfully defend against a bigger, stronger assailant. It primarily uses Judo takedowns to gain the dominant position. BJJ can be trained for self defense, sport Grappling / No-Gi tournaments (gi and no-gi) and mixed martial arts (MMA) competition. Sparring (commonly referred to as 'rolling') and live drilling play a major role in training, and a premium is placed on performance, especially in competition. Submission Grappling / No-Gi Submission Grappling / No-Gi – teaches you how to escape holds and grabs using techniques such as throws, joint locks and submission. These defenses are most useful in close-range altercations and protection after being forced to the ground.
