HUGE NEWS!:
Balance Point BJJ Has Moved!

After a long search, we have finally found a dedicated space. Our NEW address is:

112 NH-101A, Amherst, NH
(formerly Indie Music)

Renovations are now COMPLETE, and all classes going forward will be held at this location.

Afternoon class times have changed slightly, and starting 11/10/26 we will have 8am and 12pm classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays! Please check the schedule page HERE for updates.

This coming Sunday 11/8/26 at the Hampshire Dome in Milford NH, Blane Burbach will be competing at yet another Grappling Industries tournament. Please come out to show your support! You can click HERE to see match times and locations once they have been published 24 hours prior to the event (match times are VERY fluid and will change constantly throughout the day). Spectators pay $15 cash at the door, Black Belts get in free! Please note that this event was previously advertised as being on Saturday, not Sunday.
Blane recently had a great showing at the inaugural Northeast Fight Promotions, fighting a tough opponent to a Draw in their submission only match. We’re excited to see him compete again so soon! Thank you to NFP for putting on such a great event and we hope to be on their cards again in the near future.

We are thrilled to announce that our Grand Opening will be Sunday 11/15/26 at 10am, with belt promotions followed immediately by a seminar from Coral Belt Professor Roberto Maia!!
Roberto is a legend in the Jiu-Jitsu world and is essentially the source for BJJ in New England for the past few decades. This seminar is open to all practitioners at least 13 years old and the cost to attend is only $40 Balance Point members via cash, Venmo, or card, and $60 for all other attendees paid via cash or Venmo. Lunch is included! Space is limited so pre-registration is required. Email HERE to register and with any questions. Parking may be tight (or needed to be done offsite nearby) so please plan to arrive early.

Our recent Young Women’s Self Defense seminar was a big success! We are very proud of everyone who showed up, worked hard gained some skills, and stepped out of their comfort zones! If you are interested in setting up a seminar for your scout troop, youth group, family, coworkers, or any other group that you want to help empower and learn to keep themselves safe, email HERE to coordinate a date!

Our most recent Women’s Only Open Mat was another fantastic event! Thank you so much to all of the ladies who came in to share the mats and their knowledge. Stay tuned for the next event!
