4worldlovers: Welcome to De la Costa Academy, Ottawa’s premier Brazilian Jiu Jitsu academy


Led by head instructor and co-founder of the De La Costa family of academies Joe Neurauter, our academy’s culture and mission lies 100% in the growth of our students on every level.

With Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Self Defense training for everyone from beginner to professional combat athlete, we welcome you to visit and see first hand what makes us the premier choice for martial arts training in the National Capital region.


Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is not an easy martial art – it can be demanding at times. But with our modern approach to instruction, almost everyone is capable of learning it and benefiting from its many elements.


“Top quality instruction and an excellent program for beginners and seasoned students alike. The coaches really go above and beyond to help you along with everything from basic techniques to competition training. Whatever your goals are they will help you achieve them. As a paying customer for ~2 years now I couldn’t be happier”

“De la costa Academy set me on the path of my martial arts journey. I still rely today on the lessons I learned from them, both on the mats and in life.”

“A safe, open minded and friendly place to learn Brazilian jiu jitsu from great coaches with real life experiences with high level competition to self defence out in the real world. Also a great place to make friends. I’ve been here for 2 years training and I couldn’t imagine calling any other gym home.”

4worldlovers: MasterMinoru Mochizuki, the founder of the Yoseikan, was a direct student of Jigoro Kano (the founder of judo) and Morihei Ueshiba (the founder of aikido). In addition, he studied jujutsu, iaijutsu, kendo, and karate. He is credited as being the first to teach aikido to the West when he travelled to France in 1951 as a judo teacher.

Master Mochizuki's 1989 North American Tour began at our dojo on Lancaster Road in Ottawa. Sensei explained his quest:

"The evolution of bujutsu into budo via the scientific explanation of techniques". He then issued this challenge:

"I give you the raw material. It is up to you to refine it."

Although many may be daunted by the task and feel more comfortable preserving his techniques for posterity, our group was determined to take up Sensei's challenge to study his "raw material" with a scientific approach and go beyond preservation to evolution. Tankyushin (the Spirit of Inquiry) was born from our continuous efforts.

Tankyushin reflects our philosophy that we can build upon the arts of the past without being limited by them. We continually test our assumptions and question what we do—always looking for new ways to improve our practice. In this way, we have a strong foundation to grow and better ourselves.

4worldlovers: At the Jiseikan dojo, we practice primarily Jiseikan Aikido. We also provide training in Tai Chi for adults, and Judo for children.

From time to time we post videos of events in and around the dojo.
