The injury rate IN Jiu Jitsu is extremely low, especially compared to Basketball, Track, Football, or other traditional sports.
We want you to go at your speed, which is why we have more fundamental classes than any other
Will this be really hard on my body? Is it violent?
Any physical activity is taxing to the body, especially if you haven't been physically active. everyone is different but 95% of our students start of with absolutely no experience and are generally out of shape when starting. We will build you up properly.
Do I have to be athletic, flexible, or in good shape?
Nope! People always say "I want to get in shape before I try BJJ" This is completely WRONG. You can't get in shape for jiu-jitsu, without doing jiu jitsu. the problem-solving aspect brings an element to the sport that can’t be replicated without training partners.
What should I bring to my first class?
Flip flops, and a towel if you plan to shower after class.
Is sparring (rolling) required?
The simple answer is, NO! You can begin live training whenever you feel comfortable.
