From the reviews
I’m a 43 year old beginner to jujitsu. I Went to vegas for a business trip and wanted to train while down there. Called the main number and the person who answered was great (maybe his name was Justin?!) … He was a purple belt and ended up meeting with me at the Henderson location to greet me. Very nice of him.
I've been training at 10th Planet for a year now and have finally gotten around to writing this review. I must say, the size and scale of the facility is truly impressive.
10th Planet Las Vegas Henderson, was an awesome experience! The class was great there were other girls to roll with and plenty of advanced grapplers, which made for some really good rounds. Coach Casey was phenomenal. Specializes in no-go jiu-jitsu.
This school is the best. Ive been going for a few months now and I'm really seeing results in how I feel. The instructors are knowledgeable and helpful with students of all levels. I would recommend 10th Planet Las Vegas to anyone new to Jujitsu, experienced or just in town wanting to roll.
New to BJJ? Start at 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Las Vegas
10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Las Vegas 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 Jiu Jitsu Las Vegas
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.
