Algonquin Road REQUEST SUMMARY Kaizen Jiu Jitsu is a new martial arts studio proposing to open in the Forest View Plaza shopping center. The subject property is zoned B-1 Neighborhood Business District. Martial arts studios are considered a health club which requires a Special Use under Section 9-8-1-C-2 in order to operate.

Parking hasn't been an issue in the shopping center. Hours of operation would be 12:00 pm - 8:00 pm Monday through Thursday; 10:00 am - 1:00 pm Saturday and 11:00 am to 12:00 pm Sunday. The maximum size for any one session would be 15 students. The club is operated by two full-time staff members who are experienced in operating similar martial arts studios in the Chicago area.

In 2021, we co-founded All Star Jiu Jitsu in Lombard, IL, growing it into one of the most successful academies in the area with a thriving student base and strong community presence. After selling our share in that gym, we set out to create something of our own—Kaizen Jiu Jitsu—in Hoffman Estates, the city we proudly call home. Kaizen Jiu Jitsu is proud to be a direct affiliate of the prestigious Gracie Allegiance Team, led by the highly respected Carley Gracie. This elite affiliation is exclusive to only eight gyms in the Midwest, ensuring the highest level of instruction, lineage, and tradition. Our mission is to cultivate a community-driven training environment where students of all levels can grow, improve, and embody the Kaizen philosophy of continuous progress. Currently, we do not have intentions to expand to multiple locations. However, we have proactively requested the landlord to grant us the first right of refusal for the neighboring spaces, allowing us the opportunity to expand our current facility if the right circumstances arise. Mission: Our mission is to build a strong, inclusive community where people from all walks of life can come together. At Kaizen Jiu Jitsu, we believe that the practice of Jiu Jitsu goes beyond physical training—it’s about fostering connections, building relationships, and creating a supportive environment. We envision a place where individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and skill levels can unite, learn, and grow together. Our Academy will be more than just a training facility; it will be a hub for community engagement, personal development, and PXWXDOUHVSHFW 7KURXJKYDULRXVSURJUDPVHYHQWVDQGFROODERUDWLYHHIIRUWVZHDLPWRVWUHQJWKHQWKHERQGV ZLWKLQRXUFRPPXQLW\DQGFUHDWHDSRVLWLYHLPSDFW By bringing Kaizen Jiu Jitsu to Hoffman Estates, we aspire to spark a new wave of camaraderie and support, helping to weave a richer, more connected community fabric.
