Common questions

Everything a first-timer usually wants to know before stepping on the mat.

Do I need any experience to start?

None at all. Most people who walk in have never grappled before. Our beginner-friendly classes are built to take you from day one, and the coaches break every technique down step by step.

What should I wear and bring to my first class?

For your free trial, just wear athletic shorts and a t-shirt (no zippers or pockets) and bring a water bottle. You don't need a gi to start — if you continue, we'll help you get the right gear.

Am I too old or out of shape for BJJ?

No. We train adults of every age and fitness level. Jiu-jitsu is about technique and timing, not strength or athleticism — you'll build fitness as you go, at your own pace.

Is it safe? Will I get hurt?

Safety is the priority for beginners. You'll learn in a controlled, supervised environment and only spar when you're ready. Our room is friendly and ego-free — everyone was a beginner once.

What ages do the kids classes start at?

Our structured kids program starts at age 4. Classes are age-appropriate and focus on confidence, discipline, coordination and self-defense in a fun, positive setting.

Do you require a long-term contract?

[Confirm with coach.] Our goal is to make training easy to start and easy to stick with. Reach out or come in and we'll walk you through the simple, no-pressure membership options.
