Posted by Jenny Maraccini on April 4, 2025
IRPINO Real Estate Presents our Local Business Spotlight series featuring local businesses in Chicago’s Uptown and Buena Park neighborhoods.
Uptown, Chicago’s First Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy
Get ready to meet one of Uptown’s newest businesses! This month, we stepped onto the mats at Lakeside Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, a brand-new studio bringing the art of grappling to the neighborhood. We sat down with two of the owners, Peter and Stephen, to learn how they’re building a community through classes for all ages—kids, adults, and even a women’s-only program—focusing on fitness, self-defense, and the power of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Whether you’re a seasoned martial artist or just looking for a new way to stay active, this studio has something for everyone. Watch now to see how they’re making an impact in Uptown!
Special thanks to our partner QHI Media for helping with all our video needs.
