Led by Jerry Shapiro • Las Vegas

Train hard.
Laugh harder.
Grow together.

We hold high standards and intentionally challenge our students both mentally and physically. Through that pressure, we develop discipline, resilience, confidence, and the ability to reach our full potential, on and off the mat. And while we take our training seriously, we don’t take ourselves too seriously. We train hard, have fun, and grow together.

ABOUT JERRY

Las Vegas Born.
Jiu-Jitsu Raised.
Family First.

Born and raised in Las Vegas, Jerry Shapiro has dedicated more than two decades to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, competition, and coaching. As a husband, father, and lifelong Las Vegas local, Jerry understands the importance of building an environment where people can challenge themselves, build meaningful relationships, and become better versions of themselves.

His approach to Jiu-Jitsu extends beyond technique. He believes the discipline, accountability, resilience, and confidence developed on the mat should carry into every part of life.

After years of competing, coaching athletes of all ages and skill levels, and helping build one of the most successful BJJ programs at a premier MMA facility, Jerry created Shap Bros BJJ with a simple goal: build a community where people train hard, grow together, and genuinely enjoy being there.
