Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu will empower you with the skills and techniques necessary to overcome any challenger, regardless of size. Try it and find out for yourself. A Level 0 introductory class is available, but beginners are welcome in all classes, except Level 2 + 3. Classes are co-ed unless you choose to attend a Women's Only class.
Mat rules are posted outside of the BJJ room. If you attend a Level 0 introductory class, the Coach will review the rules, but here are a few helpful guidelines to know ahead of time. Always bow to the center of the mat when you enter and exit. Develop respect for yourself and others: class begins with a formal bow to the instructor and your uniform must be kept neat and clean at all times. Observe hygiene best practices. Keep nails short for safety, remove piercings - and NEVER wear shoes on the mat!
Gi classes require practitioners to wear the UFC GYM BJJ gi top and bottom, along with your earned belt level. "No gi" classes require rashguards. Newcomers are welcome to attend your first few classes in an alternate gi or recommended athletic wear including long sleeves, long pants, and tight-fitting athletic wear. Inquire with the Coach for more details.
There's no need to be nervous, BJJ practitioners are a friendly bunch. Arrive a few minutes early to introduce yourself to the Coach who will ensure you are properly integrated. Ask the club about our Level 0 introductory class where all participants are new.
