Frequently Asked Questions

I’M NOT SURE IF BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU WILL BE RIGHT FOR ME. IS THERE ANY WAY I CAN TRY A CLASS BEFORE SIGNING-UP?

YES! You can try out any of our BJJ 101 (fundamentals classes) for FREE

I DON’T OWN A GI. DO I NEED TO BUY ONE TO TRY OUT THE CLASS?

Not necessary. You should wear comfortable athletic clothing (tshirt or compression shirt, sweatpants or shorts or board shorts). Females – you will feel more comfortable with a top that is not low cut, plus a sports bra, and leggings. We will provide you with a practice Gi when you arrive for your FREE trial class.

WHAT DO I WEAR/BRING TO MY FIRST CLASS?

Please try to arrive 10-15 minutes early so that you can meet the staff ,instructor and get you checked in. Most people wear flip flops as we do not allow shoes on the mat. Also bring water.

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT MY FIRST CLASS?

The first part of class consists of a warm-up which includes stretching, core work, and movement drills. After the warm-up, the intructor(s) will show the technique of the day. You will be partnered with another students and will drill the technique. The last part of class is the “rolling”, which is the grappling equivalent to sparring. You WILL NOT roll your very first day, but you are welcome to observe. The instructor will typically pair you up with someone who is more experienced so that they can work with you and guide you through the rolling process.

WHAT’S A TYPICAL CLASS LIKE?

We begin class with some light calisthenics and stretching. Following our warm-up we then begin drilling technique. These drills when done over and over help form muscle memory and help our students retain technique. After our drilling is completed then we begin to spar (or roll). Rolling is when students are able to put their techniques to the test with training partners who can resist and counter just as they would in an actual fight, providing valuable real-world experience should the techniques ever need to be applied in an actual fight.
