From the reviews
Central Texas BJJ is a standout Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu school that truly embodies the spirit of the Carlos Machado association. From the moment you step onto the mat, you’re welcomed into a community that values respect, discipline, and camaraderie.
One of the most practical and effective BJJ schools around. Other schools tend to have scattered curriculums or awkward ways of teaching techniques. The teachers at this school have taken time to come up with a comprehensive and easy to follow lesson plan that will make advancement and retainment of material much…
I have been going to BJJ training here for the past year and 3 months. I have tried BJJ at another gym but didn’t feel comfortable. Decided to give this gym a try and I do not regret it. Great instructors and BJJ practitioners. You won’t find any mat Bully’s and everyone is willing to help.
Awesome place to get your roll on.! Instructors are very knowledgeable and helpful, the atmosphere for learning couldn’t be better.! I highly recommend.!!
New to BJJ? Start at Central Texas Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Central Texas Brazilian Jiu Jitsu 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 Central Texas Brazilian 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.
