CANADIAN JIU JITSU FEDERATION

CJA is the sole national body governing the combat sport and martial art of Jiu Jitsu in Canada.
Together, with our PSOs, we can grow the sport in our country.

“We believe Jiu Jitsu is more than a sport—it’s a lifelong journey. Our mission is to help it thrive in Canada with integrity, unity, and pride..”

Our Goals

GROWTH OF THE SPORT

At the Canadian Jiu Jitsu Association (CJA), our goal is to grow and strengthen Jiu Jitsu across Canada in a way that reflects the values and standards of the JJIF (Ju-Jitsu International Federation): respect, discipline, safety, fairness, and sportsmanship.
We’re here to support athletes, coaches, clubs, and organizers by building a strong foundation for the sport—on and off the mats.
