If you CAN'T defend yourself while standing and on the ground then you DON'T know how to defend yourself....

95% of all self-defense situations end up on the ground or in the grappling range... Grappling is the most neglected range of self-defense in most martial art systems.

At Lloyd Irvin's Martial Arts Academy, we teach Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Sombo, Judo, Muay Thai, Boxing and Submission Wrestling. At the crux and core of our grappling system is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a grappling art that was popularized in America by the legendary Gracie family. Jiu-Jitsu concentrates on dominating your opponent by using angles, leverage, and superior body positioning to control an opponent’s body movement. A person that has a superior position is in a better situation to apply a finishing hold or to start striking. This style allows for a smaller person to defeat a much larger attacker. Jiu-Jitsu is excellent for women who are often taken to the ground during assaults. We recommend this style for men, women, and children looking for a great workout and realistic self-defense. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is similar and, in some cases, both supplementary and complementary to the Olympic Sport of Judo. In our curricula, we believe that it is not only important to control our opponent on the ground, but also on our feet. Therefore, we have taken the proactive approach of marrying the arts of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Sombo, and Submission Wrestling.

	RAVE REVIEW "The confidence you get from an instructor who knows exactly what you’re going through because they’ve been there is Amazing." "The reason I chose Lloyd Irvin’s Martial Arts was because all of the Black Belt Instructors actually compete. They just don’t sit on the sidelines, they put it on the line. I really respect that. In 2002 I went to Brazil and won the silver medal in the World Championships due to their great instruction. The confidence you get from an instructor who knows exactly what you’re going through because they’ve been there is Amazing." Melvin Yates Mudial (World Championships) Silver Medalist CEO World Wide Moving and Storage

	RAVE REVIEW "I knew right away that Team Lloyd Irvin was the perfect fit for my goal of becoming a champion." "After moving to VA for a career change, I bounced around different clubs trying to find the right fit for me. After many black belts around the US referred me to Master Lloyd Irvin’s school in MD, I decided to try it out. My experience was overwhelming! Master Lloyd is truly a great coach and person. I knew right away that Team Lloyd Irvin was the perfect fit for my goal of becoming a champion. Master Lloyd is one-of-a-kind! Not only does he understand ALL aspects of grappling, but he also teaches the MENTAL aspects of fighting and how to deal with being tired, which is something truly unique about his program." Charles Kil Information Warfare/Operations Systems Engineer

	RAVE REVIEW "Switching to Team Lloyd Irvin has been one of the best decisions of my life." "I spent my first six years training at another academy in the area. I got to a point where I just wasn’t getting any better, and it was frustrating. In BJJ, you’re said to be disloyal if you switch schools. My loyalty kept me there for almost two years longer than I should’ve stayed. I got to a point where my desire to improve was so strong that I just couldn’t take it anymore. I was being disloyal to myself! Switching to Team Lloyd Irvin has been one of the best decisions of my life. If you’re looking for a place to train, then look no further and come see for yourself!" Guy Chapman BJJ Brown Belt Graphic Designer

ABOUT OUR INSTRUCTOR

Our team is built on a strong foundation, a team without a strong foundation will surely fail.

Team Lloyd Irvin was built on the blood, sweat and tears of its Head Instructor Lloyd Irvin, he's a Multiple time National Judo Champion, Multiple time National Sombo Champion, World Renowned Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Coach and a 2005 Brazilian Jiu Jitsu World Champion. He was the first Non-Brazilian to defeat a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt in Brazil which led him to having a full page article written about it in the World Famous Gracie Magazine.

He's the only person in the World to hold black belts in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Combat Sombo and Judo.

In 2002 he was named The United States Judo Federation International Coach of the year. Also in 2004 he was named the NAGA North American Grappling Associations Instructor of the Year as well as The Grapplers Quest 2004 Instructor of the Year.

In January 2005 in New York he was Inducted into The Grappling Hall of Fame along side with the Legendary Royce Gracie.

If you live in the Washington DC, Maryland and Virginia area you have the rare opportunity to personally train with a Martial Arts Legend. No where else in the Maryland, Virginia and DC area can you personally train with such a highly decorated competitor and coach.

Are you out of shape?  Haven't worked out in years?  Never done something like this before?

Well it doesn't matter

We have specific classes that were designed to meet the needs of a brand new student that is attending for the very first time. Many new students think that you should get in shape on your own before starting training. That is the furthest thing from the truth. You’ll absolutely love the easy and relaxed environment we have set up in our beginner fundamental classes. It will allow you to come in and learn no matter what type of shape you are in.

	RAVE REVIEW "I've been competing in grappling in some form for over eight years, and never experienced this level of support, hard work, or dedication to improvement - it's completely unique." "The thing about Lloyd is that he knows how to bring the best out in his students. He knows what each person needs to become the best they can. He believes he will succeed in coaching you, and because of that, he does. His belief in his students is infectious. If you come to Lloyd's you will be surrounded by people who believe in YOUR abilities. If you STAY at Lloyd's you'll come to believe in yourself and those you train with. I've been competing in grappling in some form for over eight years, and never experienced this level of support, hard work, or dedication to improvement - it's completely unique." James Valentine LT U.S. Coast Guard. Terrorism Analyst

I’ve heard that there are people that think grappling is WAY TO HARD and are hesitant to give it a try. This is the furthest thing from the truth. Actually it’s pretty funny. It’s a misconception. I guess some people think that if they come to learn that someone is going to throw them into the Ultimate Fighting Championships. WRONG!

Grappling is FUN first and foremost and doesn’t require any previous experience. Anyone can do it, big people, small people, young people, older people, flexible people, non flexible people, experienced people, non experienced people, ANYONE.

If you have ever thought that Martial Arts training may be for you I would urge you to come in and see our program for yourself. I guarantee that you’ll absolutely love it; we can help meet any of your needs.

I know it may sound like I'm begging, but the fact of the matter is that I AM.

	RAVE REVIEW "I can't say enough about how grateful I am to have met and trained with such an extraordinary man and group of people." "I moved to Maryland from Indiana this summer with the impression that my training was going to suffer. Facing the possibility of being away from my team and instructor (James Clingerman) for the summer was bad enough--the fact that I had a scheduled MMA fight waiting for me back home with the possibility of training myself for it was tantamount to disaster. When James recommended that I look into Lloyd Irvin's jiu-jitsu program, I was expecting a group of people to roll with once or twice a week to keep me fresh...still dreading that the majority of my training would alone. What I got, however, was a blessing....a full gym, consistent training partners (some of whom were females with high rank, which is an AWESOME and rare commodity most places), and daily classes with an emphasis on both fundamental and advanced training. When I mentioned to Master Lloyd that I was training for a fight, he designed a personalized conditioning program for me, which has left me in the best shape of my life. I have found that in training he continually pushes his students to improve their game, both in examining the group as a whole and pinpointing the exact areas that each individual student needs to improve. The support I have received at LIMMA has helped improve not only my jiu-jitsu and NHB technique, but my overall sense of self on the mat...my weaknesses and strengths (physical AND mental) are pointed out to me daily and corrected with patience and understanding. What's more, there has ALWAYS been someone of high rank or experience available to answer any question I might have at any given time. I can't say enough about how grateful I am to have met and trained with such an extraordinary man and group of people" Julie Kudzie

I would hate for you to miss out on the many benefits that our students are experiencing RIGHT NOW just because you are a little hesitant to give it a try. If that’s the case you don’t have to come in to try it, just come in to watch. Isn’t that fair? But if you want to try it you should take advantage of my generous 30 offer TODAY.

I don’t know what else I can do to get you to come to our school and see for yourself. If there is something that I’m missing that will get you to come in please call me on my cell phone to let me know what it is, here’s my cell phone number 301-535-2160. Trust me I’ll do all most anything to prove to you that our program is right for you and that we can help you reach your goals.

YES. No matter what your specific goals are, we have programs that will completely fit your needs. Do you just want to get in shape? Do you want to compete? Do you want to become a Champion in the Martial Arts? Do you want to push yourself to new limits? Do you want to actually reach your full potential? Do you want to fight NHB? Do you want to learn self defense? It doesn’t matter.

We will help you reach your goal.

We often hear about students who are only interested in getting into shape being forced or pressured to compete. That will never happen at Lloyd Irvin’s Martial Arts.

Whatever your personal goals are, our instructors will bend over backwards to help you accomplish them.

	RAVE REVIEW "We get the same world-class training without the pressure of competition." "I don’t want anything to do with competition, and Master Lloyd has classes for people like me who want to learn the art of self defense and get in shape without the worry about being made to compete. We get the same world-class training without the pressure of competition." John King

	RAVE REVIEW "Being a business professional it’s nice to be able to get away from the office to do something like this and to be able to meet new friends." "I got bored at the gym, and wanted to try something new. The confidence that I’ve gained since starting training at your academy is amazing. I really appreciate the way everyone at the academy made me feel right at home on my very first day. Being a business professional it’s nice to be able to get away from the office to do something like this and to be able to meet new friends. Your program is great." Mark Wilson

	RAVE REVIEW "The class structure is set up for even out of shape, over weight people to be able to just jump in with no worries." "I just love the environment at the academy. I wanted to get involved in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for a long time but I was kind of nervous. I didn’t know really what to do or how to get started. Then one day I saw the commercial and decided what the heck. I’m going to give it a try. Well I’m really upset at myself for not starting two years ago. I thought I had to be in good shape to get started. The class structure is set up for even out of shape, over weight people to be able to just jump in with no worries. The entire staff is top notch, I couldn’t recommend this school enough." Henry Patterson

We pride ourselves on having a family environment at our academy.

Our academy has classes for the entire family. Even family members that don’t train at our school come out and support our competitors.

	RAVE REVIEW "The training is unreal. I didn't realize what I was missing." "It’s a great feeling being a part of such a great team. The training is unreal. I didn’t realize what I was missing. I mean you have some of the best purple, brown and black belt competitors in the country all training together, sharing technique, constantly developing new techniques and strategies. You just don’t find this type of combination that often. Master Lloyd is much more than a Martial Arts instructor. He’s a Mentor, Coach and Friend. Team Lloyd Irvin is the place to be."

	RAVE REVIEW "If you're undecided if training with our team is for you, do yourself a favor, come in and see for yourself." "Since becoming a member of Team Lloyd Irvin I’ve seen my game improve vastly. I couldn’t believe all of the important tiny details that I was missing. Just the mental training that I’ve received from Master Lloyd has taken my over all game to new levels in Vale Tudo, Muay Thai and Jiu-Jitsu. If you’re undecided if training with our team is for you, do yourself a favor, come in and see for yourself. I’m sure you’ll see why so many people are enjoying the positive benefits of our training."

When it comes to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, you've come to the right place!

There are many different factors that play into choosing the right school. We feel that the most important factor should be getting what you pay for. What you are paying for should be first-rate instruction and a friendly environment in which to learn. When you train at Lloyd Irvin’s Martial Arts, you will be training under highly trained instructors who go through a grueling 10-week instructor training course twice a year with Master Lloyd. Customer service is one of our main priorities. Whatever you need, our staff will be there to assist you.

One thing that separates our school from all of the others is that we have a specialized system (curriculum) that we teach. This system is one of the secrets to our team’s success. Most schools have no curriculum and basically the instructors teach whatever may pop into their heads each night for class. We believe in setting short-, intermediate-, and long-term goals, and then putting a plan in place to reach each of these goals.

Also Team Lloyd Irvin doesn’t just concentrate on helping students develop their skills technically and physically, but also MENTALLY! Master Lloyd is the world’s leading expert on Developing Mental Skills for grappling.

	RAVE REVIEW "Lloyd has training and drilling methodologies, which are second to none. He has trained me to become a tyrant on the mat technically and mentally. " Rhadi Ferguson 4 Time US National Judo Champion 2000 Olympic Team Alternate 2004 Olympian BJJ Brown Belt Judo Black Belt

Don't take our word for it.

See what is being said in the National Magazines

		"Team Lloyd Irvin steals the show"
		Grappling Magazine    Story by Kid Peligro
		The purple belt division is known as the most exciting tournament class of them all. With less pressure on their shoulders and great technical skills, purple belts go for it like no other fighters. This proved to be the case at the Nationals as Lloyd Irvin's Mike Fowler stole the show! Fowler has been competing in and winning just about every tournament in the nation and his performance at the Nationals showed why Fowler is not only a great athlete and extremely technical, but he also has the heart of a lion. Fowler won his weight with a submission in the finals and then went on to capture the Absolute with a gutsy performance against Asa Fuller. Asa, outweighing Fowler, maintained his traditional pressure throughout the match, many times almost passing Fowlers guard. Fowler maintained his composure, however, and pulled a pair of triangle attempts out of nowhere to win the match by advantage.

	RAVE REVIEW “If You Live In Maryland, Virginia or DC And Don't Give Team Lloyd Irvin A Try You'll Never Truly Know What Your Potential Is.” "I know for a FACT that Master Lloyd can make Champions and bring out the very best in anyone that really wants to improve. I'm living proof. When I first joined the academy I wasn't winning anything. In less than two years I'm competing and winning against some of the biggest names in my divisions. Now less than 4 years later I reached my goal of becoming a BJJ Black Belt. I became one of only three people in the United States to accomplish this along with Master Lloyd and BJ Penn. In the last year I've been featured in local, national and international magazines. I wouldn't have dreamed about all of the success I've been having when I first started . It's all due to Master Lloyd's training. Our teams results speak for themselves. If you live in Maryland, Virginia or DC and don’t give Team Lloyd Irvin a try you’ll never truly know what your potential is.” Mike Fowler Pan American Champion American National Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Champion American National Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Open Weight Division Champion Team USA vs. Team Brazil Champion 160lbs NAGA Expert World Champion Copa De Mundo Brown Belt Bronze Medallist

No matter if your interest is in fitness, self-defense, or just to have a great time,
you'll love our program.

As we have developed our students’ abilities, we would like to do the same for you. We believe that martial arts presents a holistic approach to the development and building of moral character, grounded ethics, sportsmanship, and fair play. These intangibles, along with the ability to defend oneself, are immeasurable and beneficial to all individuals.

	RAVE REVIEW "The students were very friendly, they made me feel right at home." took about four months to investigate all of the schools in the area before I made my decision. I became interested in BJJ after seeing Royce Gracie in the UFC and wanted to train under a Brazilian since the art came from their country. But, every time I looked in magazines, on the Internet, or went to watch tournaments, Team Lloyd Irvin was the talk of the town. I took advantage of the free introductory class from all of the schools in the area but what finally made me go with Lloyd Irvin's Martial Arts was when I finally decided to come in and try the classes myself. The students were very friendly, they made me feel right at home. As good as Lloyd Irvin's team is I was expecting to see a bunch of cocky individuals. Boy was I wrong, they are some of the nicest people I've even met. I plan on being at your school for a long time. Thanks! Tim Mettec

Real NHB Training

Master Lloyd has fought NHB - winning all of his matches. He has also helped train some of the biggest names in the sport of No Holds Barred Fighting and prepared them for events like the UFC, Pride Championships, Rings, and Extreme Challenge, just to name a few. We take a world-class approach to training in all of our disciplines and are ALWAYS trying to improve it.

No Holds Barred (NHB) competition isn’t for everyone. But if you have an interest in NHB, want to train at a school that can prepare you for NHB, or just want to experience the great mental and physical rush that comes with NHB training, we can help you.

Master Lloyd after an intense training session with the UFC Middleweight Champion Vitor “The Phenom” Belfort in preparation for a UFC bout.

One thing that separates our school from most of the others is that we practice what we preach. All of our instructors get out in the mix so that we can constantly learn and refine our techniques. You can be assured that what you are learning from our instructors is being practiced by some of the best fighters in the world.

Shown here is Master Lloyd after training in NHB with some of the biggest names in Brazil - the world-famous Brazilian Top Team (BTT) Gracie Barra, fighter and the newest member of Chute Boxe; Nino 'Elvis' Shembri who is considered one of the most dynamic ground fighters in the world; BTT Paulo Filho who is regarded as one of the top fighters in the world; BTT Ricardo Arona who many feel is the #1 contender to face Wanderlei “The Axe Murderer” Silva in the Pride Championships; American Top Team Sensation Dustin Denes, BTT Alan Goes, and Master Lloyd’s personal friend and fraternity brother, Daryl Gholar, who is basically responsible for training all the top fighters in Brazil in wrestling.

Our students interested in NHB fighting have competed in almost every major show in the country. Our instructors learn and grow so we can give our students the best possible instruction available.

	RAVE REVIEW “If You Want To Be The Best You Can Be, You Have To Train With The Best” "Team Lloyd Irvin by far has the best MMA, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai team in the Metropolitan Area hands down. We are recognized as having one of the best teams in the Country. Our team has competitors fighting all over the country and a few of our team members are starting to compete in other countries. I may be bias being a member of Team Lloyd Irvin myself but our results speak for themselves. Try to find a school in our area that has produced more MMA Champions then us. It won’t happen. Take it from me; if you want to be the best you can be, you have to train with the best. PERIOD! Do yourself a favor and check our team out.." Brandon "The Truth" Vera Ultimate Fighting Championship Fighter WEC Heavy Weight Champion Team Lloyd Irvin Brown Belt

	RAVE REVIEW "I had many martial arts schools to choose from, some only 1-2 miles from my home. But I choose to drive a 100 mile round trip to Lloyd's. I think that speaks alot to the type of training that is available at Lloyd's." "I started training with Lloyd in January of 2000. I came to his classes as a complete beginner in grappling, no experience at all. In fact, I was very apprehensive to be grappling at all. Within 3 months and only training 3 days a week, I won my first grappling tournament, beating 2 blue belts, one by submission. I had no idea Lloyd's training would be so effective. I was 215 pounds and my first match was against a 315 pound giant. I will be honest, I was nervous, but I used Lloyd's techniques and got the submission in under 30 seconds. I never doubted myself again or the effectiveness of the training I was receiving from Lloyd. And what was funny is that I was injured for a month during that 3 month period I was training, so in reality I only trained maybe 2 months for my first tournament. Lloyd encouraged me during my injury period, telling me to keep my head up and to continue to mentally train. I never had a coach take so much time out of his own personal schedule to help me. I had major injuries in college from playing football that were devastating to my psyche, so when Lloyd called and e-mailed me to check on me on a daily basis for the month I was out, I felt like he cared for me and for my personal growth. And all this for a beginning student. Over the next 3 years, I drove 50 miles, one way to train with Lloyd 4-5 times a week. I had many martial arts schools to choose from, some only 1-2 miles from my home. But since I had been involved in higher level athletics and understood the type of environment that I would need to make me the best I could be, I chose to drive a 100 mile round trip to Lloyd's, even battling the Wilson Bridge every day! I think that speaks alot to the type of training that is available at Lloyd's, WORLD CLASS. Lloyd encouraged me to train my hardest every day and always told me, "if you aren't moving forward, you are moving backwards". I use this motto all the time, and even when I cannot make practice, I use the mental and physical techniques Lloyd has shown me to get better in my off time. Lloyd has trained me for Mixed Martial Arts fights over the past 3 years, in fact I won my first fight with only one year of training, and it was by KO. I won my second fight by submission in under 30 seconds. Lloyd mentally prepares his athletes as well as I have ever seen a coach do for his athletes. I was competitively involed in football for 17 years. I had some really intense coaches over the years who worked very hard to help me achieve my goals, but none rival Lloyd's complete approach to developing an athlete of sound mind and body. Some of the coaches I had are now involved in the NFL and are coaching at the highest level of college football, but once again, none of them rival Lloyd's attention to detail, mental development, and physical conditioning of their athlete's like Lloyd Irvin. He has taken me to my physical and mental limit during the periods of time when I have trained for fights, but one thing, he makes it fun and mentally conditions me to think of success, not failure. Lloyd is always about success, 100% of the time. He never seems to have time to talk about failure or negativity, it's 100% positive..." Brett Tillett School Teacher
