The academy’s offerings include Kids Classes, Adult Classes, Morning classes, Evening classes, Open mat, and dedicated Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) training, alongside its identity as a martial arts school. That range makes it easy for local families and working adults to find a class time that fits their routine while still giving experienced students room to sharpen technique, drill fundamentals, and stay active on the mats.

The instruction team gives the academy a strong sense of lineage and depth. Classes are led by Don De La Pena, Matt Walter, and Josef “Ze Cobra” Manuel, each bringing a distinct level of experience to the room. The listed belt ranks reflect that pedigree: Don De La Pena is a Brown Belt earned under Chief Instructor Josef Manuel, Matt Walter achieved Black Belt in 2019 with Team Choke Lab, and Josef “Ze Cobra” Manuel holds his Black Belt under Master Robson “Robinho” Moura. That mix of instructor backgrounds creates an environment where technique, progression, and real-world grappling development can stay at the center of the training experience.

For students who value structure without stiffness, the academy stands out for its straightforward approach to training. Morning classes include open mat, giving practitioners a practical space to test positions, build timing, and connect with training partners in a more flexible setting. Evening classes and adult sessions add convenience for commuters and busy schedules, while Kids Classes make the academy an accessible choice for families looking to introduce martial arts in a disciplined but welcoming environment. The presence of Team Choke Lab ties the gym to a competitive focus, which will appeal to athletes who want a program with sharper performance goals and a proven tournament mindset.

Visitors can also expect the kind of practical advantages that matter in daily training: a clearly defined location, a direct website at https://parsippanybjj.com/, and a program lineup that supports both consistent attendance and long-term development.
