Not at all. Most people who walk through our doors start with little or no martial arts experience. Our coaches will teach you the fundamentals step by step, so you can learn at your own pace without feeling lost or left behind.
Absolutely not. You don’t get in shape to start Jiu-Jitsu—you start Jiu-Jitsu and gradually get in better shape. Classes allow you to work at your own pace while improving your fitness, strength, mobility, and endurance over time.
Probably not! Adults begin BJJ at all different ages, and you don’t need to train like a competitive athlete to enjoy it. Our goal is to help you train intelligently, safely, and at a level that works for you.
Your safety is a priority. Beginners learn in a controlled environment with experienced coaches and training partners who understand that you’re new. You’ll learn how to train responsibly, communicate with your partner, and tap before a position becomes unsafe.
Expect a welcoming atmosphere, some nerves, plenty of learning, and probably a great workout! We’ll introduce you to the basics, pair you with appropriate training partners, and help you through the class. No egos, no pressure—you’re a beginner, and we expect you to be one.
