From the reviews
10th Planet Airlock is a super cool place ran by some amazing people!! I tried it out while visiting and I fell in love with the atmosphere. The gym is clean, bright, and modern and made me feel really comfortable (especially being a girl and a newcomer).
We finally signed our daughter of 6, up for Jiu-Jitsu at 10th Planet Airlock a few months back after deciding years prior that this was how we wanted to start her self-defense education.
I started training at Airlock about a year ago, and my perception of what to expect, and the reality of what I experienced, were very different. Beginning to learn a martial art in your 40’s can be overwhelming, but the Airlock staff have made the training environment safe and welcoming.
I’ve had an awesome experience training at 10th Planet Airlock! The culture and energy here are on another level. The coaches and members make you feel welcome from day one, and the motivation you get from everyone around you is unreal.
New to BJJ? Start at 10th Planet Airlock | Bastrop, TX Jiu Jitsu
10th Planet Airlock | Bastrop, TX Jiu Jitsu comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never rolled or set foot on a mat, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard rolling — reputable gyms build fundamentals (positions, escapes, and basic submissions) for weeks, live rolling eases in gradually, and tapping early keeps every roll safe. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out, and leave your ego at the door. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first BJJ class at 10th Planet Airlock | Bastrop, TX Jiu Jitsu
Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
