★★★★★ — David, Feb 2022

Decided to take the opportunity to learn as an old retired guy - thought I was in decent shape for my age...nope! Wayne and his team have been nothing but encouraging and patient - but challenging as well. Brandon teaches the beginner course and is awesome!

★★★★★ — David, Dec 2019

My son has been training for a few years and we recently moved to Missouri. I had originally signed him up for a "big name" gym in the area. I was expecting great training, but it was far from what we had expected. I reached out to Blue Springs Jiu-Jitsu and Wayne was so welcoming.

★★★★★ — Nikki, Apr 2021

My son has been coming here for about 3 years, I myself started about 6 months ago. I also have 2 other children that train here. Great coaches, good atmosphere. Not only has training here helped my children with self confidence, but it has also helped my find the desire to get healthy again.

Your first BJJ class at Blue Springs 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.

BJJ is a contact sport. Ease in, tap early and often, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
