From the reviews
We travel to Indy several times a year and decided to check out the kid’s bullyproof bjj class for some cross training. The kid’s coaches made class tons of fun while teaching very good technique and clearly kept safety a top priority. Great vibes from everyone there, clean facility, and convenient location.
We’ve been attending kids classes and jiujitsu for about a year. This is the cleanest gym we’ve found. The coaches and participants are so friendly and welcoming and highly skilled. My kids are both thriving in this program and my husband calls this place his second home. FYI they have toilet but no showers.
I take the 10th planet jiu jitsu here and it has helped me in both aspects of mental and physical health. Not just Bc it’s hard and you feel good about yourself at the end of a workout but the people there care and want you to be better. Couldn’t ask for anything better.
Literally the best no gi gym in Indy. They have class almost every day in the morning afternoon, & night time. Coach Ian, Nick, and Joe have so much knowledge, they work with beginners, intermediate, and advance students.
New to BJJ? Start at 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Indianapolis
10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Indianapolis comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. 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 Jiu Jitsu Indianapolis
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.
