Welcome to Slow Roll Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
At Slow Roll Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, we believe that martial arts is more than just physical training—it's a journey toward self-improvement, resilience, and connection. Located in the heart of Clarksville, Tennessee, our academy offers world-class instruction in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) for both kids and adults, as well as striking fundamentals, yoga, and mobility training. Whether you're stepping onto the mats for the first time or you're a seasoned competitor, Slow Roll provides a welcoming and ego-free environment to learn, grow, and thrive.
Our Mission
Slow Roll BJJ was founded by Travis Israel and Zach Forrester with one goal in mind: to build a training space where people of all ages and backgrounds could come together to train with intention, support one another, and discover the transformative power of martial arts.
From day one, we've focused on developing an inclusive and adaptive training culture rooted in the ecological approach to BJJ. This teaching philosophy encourages natural, context-driven learning that adapts to individual needs, allowing every student to develop their unique style and grow at their own pace.
