Ocean Jiu-Jitsu is rewriting the script for what professional Jiu-Jitsu looks like in Europe — and now, with Kingz Kimonos officially on board as a sponsor, the tide is rising fast.

The announcement that Kingz — one of the most iconic and trusted brands in the grappling world — is joining forces with Ocean BJJ is more than just a sponsorship deal. It’s a clear message: Europe is ready for elite-level, world-class professional Jiu-Jitsu. And Ocean is leading the charge.

A Rising Force in European No-Gi

Founded with a bold vision to elevate the European Jiu-Jitsu scene, Ocean BJJ has quickly established itself as the continent’s fastest-growing pro no-gi circuit. Athlete-focused rulesets. Scalable prize structures. Aesthetic production value that rivals the biggest shows in the U.S. This isn’t your average local tournament — this is Pro Jiu-Jitsu with a purpose.

From its inception, Ocean BJJ has captured attention by putting athletes first and creating an experience that’s both professional and fan-friendly. It’s no surprise top-tier grapplers from across Europe — and increasingly, international stars — are gravitating toward Ocean events.

Kingz Kimonos: The Nike of BJJ Joins the Movement

With Kingz Kimonos now stepping in as the official sponsor, starting with the Ocean BJJ Pro Championship Finals on September 20, Ocean’s rise has reached a new level. This is the same brand worn by world champions, ADCC veterans, and IBJJF kings and queens — and now, they’re backing a project born in Europe and built for the global stage.

“To have such an iconic brand — the Nike of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu — recognize and align with our project is a tremendous validation of the work we’ve done,” said Fabrizio Forconi, Event Manager at Ocean BJJ Pro.

“This partnership marks the beginning of a new chapter for us.”

Italy: The Beating Heart of a New Grappling Movement

It’s no coincidence that Ocean Jiu-Jitsu was born in Italy — a country where Jiu-Jitsu is exploding in popularity. From Rome to Milan, Florence to Naples, new schools are opening, competitors are climbing the ranks, and fans are filling the stands. Italy isn’t just following the Jiu-Jitsu wave — it’s creating its own.

Ocean BJJ has become the epicenter of that growth. Not just providing opportunities for local talent, but creating a pathway to international recognition — with events broadcast globally, prize money on the line, and names like Demian Maia, Jean Jacques Machado, and Riccardo Ammendolia commentating live on FloGrappling.
