Before you come
- Wear: athletic clothes with no zippers, pockets, or buttons. A fitted t-shirt or rashguard and shorts or leggings is perfect.
- Bring: water and sandals or slides for walking off the mat.
- Arrive: 10 minutes early so we can say hello and show you around.
- Skip: jewelry, watches, and anything that could catch on a training partner.
What happens in class
You'll warm up with the group, then learn one technique broken down step by step and drill it with a partner. At the end of class there's optional live sparring. Sit it out or roll lightly — it's your call, and nobody will push you.
Try it free
We offer a free trial. Request yours online, or just show up to any class and introduce yourself to the instructor.
After your first class
Most people leave tired, a little confused, and wanting to come back. That's normal. Jiu-jitsu clicks with consistency: two or three classes a week is the sweet spot.
Before your next class, read the student handbook for gear, hygiene, and mat etiquette, and check the class schedule to pick your times.
