Class schedule
programs
At Atlas, we specialize in No-Gi jiu-jitsu — a style of grappling that’s fast, fluid, and highly applicable to both sport and self-defense. Without the traditional uniform (gi), training emphasizes control, speed, and technique. Perfect for beginners or experienced grapplers who want to sharpen their skills in a modern format.
No-Gi also minimizes grip dependency, making it a dynamic choice for all athletes.
Our kids program is designed to build confidence, focus, and discipline through age-appropriate jiu-jitsu training. Kids learn real self-defense skills in a fun, structured, and respectful environment. Whether your child is energetic, shy, or anywhere in between, they’ll gain physical coordination, social confidence, and mental resilience.
Classes are open to beginners ages 5+, with experienced instructors who know how to make learning engaging and safe.
These classes are tailored specifically for women who want to learn effective, real-world self-defense techniques in a supportive and empowering environment. We focus on practical strategies for common scenarios, teaching situational awareness, leverage-based movement, and how to stay calm under pressure.
No prior martial arts experience is required — just the desire to feel stronger, safer, and more confident.
Our adult classes are open to all skill levels, from total beginners to advanced students. Every class combines structured instruction, live drilling, and controlled sparring — in a culture built on respect and improvement.
You don’t need to be in shape or “tough” to start. You just need the willingness to learn and grow. We’ll help you build the rest.

MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Atlas Jiu-Jitsu was founded by a black belt under the lineage of the late Keith Owen, a respected Pedro Sauer black belt. After Keith’s passing, the journey continued — with black belt promotion awarded by two of his most senior students, Josh Arentz and Todd Richards.
Our head instructor created Atlas with a clear vision:
To build a non-traditional studio that’s free from politics, drama, and ego — a place where people simply train hard and love the art of jiu-jitsu.
Frequently asked questions
Absolutely not. Most of our students started with zero experience. Our classes are designed to be welcoming and beginner-friendly. You’ll learn at your pace, with instructors and training partners who support your growth.
If you’re new, a clean t-shirt or rash guard and athletic shorts (no zippers) are perfect for No-Gi classes. If you don’t have a gi, no problem — we focus on No-Gi. Just bring water and an open mind.
Most classes are 60 minutes, including warm-ups, technique instruction, drilling, and optional sparring. Some sessions (like Open Mat or Labs) may run longer or be more flexible.
Our kids program is open to children ages 5 and up. Classes are structured, fun, and focused on building coordination, confidence, and respect.
