From the reviews
I was in town for a couple days and dropped in for an open mat. Coach Andrew and everyone I rolled with were super nice and friendly. If you're looking to learn or just stopping by to get a good roll in I would highly recommend you stop by.
I’ve had a really great experience here at A2 Jiu Jitsu. The environment is really laid back and welcoming to everyone. Stu and the rest of the crew there have been awesome at easing me the the rest of my novice friends into the sport!
Nice guys. Came out of town for there open mat. Nice and chill, clean, good group of people.
If you are seasoned or new, attending this school will improve your Jitsu game. Two blackbelts are the instructors and they have a tremendous skill set in teaching. You are who you repeatedly spend your time with and spending time with this tribe will make anyone a better human. Memento vivere
New to BJJ? Start at A2 Jiu-Jitsu LLC
A2 Jiu-Jitsu LLC 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 A2 Jiu-Jitsu LLC
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.
