Tiger Academy of Martial Arts is a Certified Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Training Center located at 3815 Mansell Road, Suite 150, in Alpharetta, Georgia, serving the greater Roswell and Atlanta metropolitan area. The academy has been in continuous operation for over twenty years, making it one of the longer-established Gracie Jiu-Jitsu programs in the North Metro Atlanta region.
The facility is independently owned and operated by Eddie Camden, identified on the site as one of the highest-ranking American instructors and a holder of the highest certification from the Gracie family. This affiliation places the academy within the direct lineage of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu methodology and distinguishes it from schools teaching general Brazilian jiu-jitsu without formal Gracie certification.
Program offerings cover a broad range of students and skill levels. Youth classes introduce children to jiu-jitsu fundamentals in a structured, family-oriented environment. Adult classes cover Gracie Jiu-Jitsu technique and self-defense application for practitioners of all experience levels. VIP Private Lessons are available for students seeking accelerated or personalized instruction. Women Empowered is a specialized women’s self-defense program offered separately from the standard curriculum. MMA Striking rounds out the academy’s offerings for students interested in stand-up combat skills alongside ground-based jiu-jitsu.
The academy’s stated motto is “Tying Self Protection with Self Perfection,” reflecting a dual emphasis on practical self-defense and personal development. Student reviews reference a welcoming and family-friendly atmosphere, strong technical instruction, and consistency of care from the instructors, with at least one student reporting nearly four years of continuous membership and specifically recommending the Women Empowered program for college-age women.
