Jiu-Jitsu Basement History

While the Jiu-Jitsu Basement is relatively new, the teaching concepts and philosophy have been developed and refined throughout 30 years. Click “Read More” to learn about Bill Krieg’s background, experience, and how the Jiu-Jitsu Basement started.

The Jiu-Jitsu Basement provides a truly unique training opportunity for individuals who wish to learn Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, self-defense, or WI-LESB based law enforcement techniques in a private or semi-private environment. While there are many benefits to training in traditional group settings, private lessons can offer advantages based on the needs of the student.

The concept behind the Jiu-Jitsu Basement is the culmination of nearly 30 years of martial arts and 15 years of law enforcement instruction experience. During that time, Bill Krieg has taught day one beginners to high level black belts. He’s also taught law enforcement students at Fox Valley Technical College to police officers with over 25 years of real world experience. In all those lessons, he’s found ways connect with individuals based on their unique learning style and desired goals. Bill will find ways to make the concepts and techniques “click” in ways that are difficult in larger group settings.
