Founded in 1991 by Sensei Damon Umholtz, Philadelphia Jiu-Jitsu or “Philly Jiu-Jitsu” was Philadelphia’s original Mixed Martial Arts School. For well over two decades he alone has taught a contemporary urban application of the Art of Jiu-Jitsu and Mixed Martial Arts in Philadelphia. Please do not confuse Umholtz Philadelphia Jiu-Jitsu with any other Philadelphia Martial Arts school claiming to offer “Free Philadelphia Jiu-Jitsu”. In 1999, Philadelphia Muay Thai joined forces with Philadelphia Mixed Martial Arts Original, Philadelphia Jiu-Jitsu. Together we are proud to continue serving the Philadelphia community while keeping the Philadelphia fighting spirit alive.
