About Us
Who We Are
Established in 1997, Bindner Academy is the martial art school and community in London, Ontario, focused on real-world self-protection, fitness, and personal development for all ages.
We teach kids, teens, and adults how to stay safe, build confidence, and develop discipline through structured Jiu-jitsu and kickboxing training. Every class is designed to be practical, supportive, and applicable to real life—not just the mats.
What We Do
At Bindner Academy, you’ll learn:
-
How to handle real-life confrontations safely and effectively
-
How to breathe and stay calm under pressure
-
How to build strength, mobility, and awareness
-
How to develop confidence that transfers into everyday life
Our program follows a clear path from beginner to advanced, giving you structure, progression, and measurable growth at every stage.
What Makes Us Different
Most martial arts schools focus on one area—fitness, sport competition, or traditional techniques.
Bindner Academy teaches a modern, integrated, and functional delivery system. Our training combines the most effective elements of stand-up and ground grappling, control, weapons, and situational awareness into one practical method, designed for real-world situations, not just sport or competition.
Our Fusion Jiu-jitsu system combines:
-
Real-world self-defense
-
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (grappling fundamentals)
-
Muay Thai Kickboxing (striking fundamentals)
-
Yoshinkan Aikido (control & pinning fundamentals)
-
Movement and awareness training
-
Critical thinking
So you’re not just learning moves—you’re learning how to handle situations from start to finish.
The goal isn’t to win medals—it’s to help you become more capable, confident, and resilient in everyday life.
Bindner Academy Is For
-
Adults who want to feel safer and more confident
-
Parents who want their kids to build discipline and resilience
-
Beginners who feel intimidated by traditional fight gyms
-
Anyone looking for a structured path of personal growth
No experience is needed—just a willingness to learn.
More Than A Martial Art
While we teach Jiu-jitsu and kickboxing, what we’re really building is:
-
