TRAIN. LEARN. CONNECT. ESCAPE.​​
There's something different about stepping away from your everyday routine to spend a week immersed in jiu-jitsu.
​
No rushing to evening class after work. No checking the clock. Just time to train, ask questions, explore ideas, and enjoy the process of learning.
​
For five years, Shrimp'n Escape has brought together practitioners from around the world to do exactly that. Small groups, exceptional black belt instructors, and an environment where learning comes first.
​
Add the Mediterranean sunshine, a legendary boat trip, beach BBQ, and this year's unforgettable finale at Theo & Zoe's traditional Cypriot wedding, and you have a week you'll be talking about long after you get home.​
​
All affiliations welcome. All levels welcome. One unforgettable week.

A VERY SPECIAL FINALE
​
This year's Shrimp'n Escape will finish with something truly unforgettable.
​
On Saturday 5th September, all camp attendees are invited to celebrate the wedding of our teammates Theo & Zoe—two integral members of the Bad Dog BJJ family. Fresh from their recent promotions to Black Belt and Purple Belt, they'll be beginning the next chapter of their journey together surrounded by the people who matter most.
​
We'll be honoured to witness their union in true Cypriot style, with incredible food, music, dancing and the warm hospitality that Cyprus is famous for.
​
It's not every day you're invited to a traditional Cypriot wedding... and we can't think of a better way to bring an amazing week of training, friendship and memories to a close.
​
Come for the jiu-jitsu. Stay for the celebration.
