From the reviews
Very inviting and not intimidating environment. Ty is an amazing instructor. He shows the class the precise mechanics of every technique, and makes sure that you know how to do it safely and effectively. The other students are cooperative in helping each other learn.
I finally met someone real in AZ! Tyron is the Gracie certified instructor who trained under Gracie brothers, Renror and Ryron. Tyron is the real deal! His skill sets are extremely solid, and he can answer you any Jujitsu related questions.
Loved how the instructor interacted with the kids that our daughter starts next week
I’ve been recovering from a blood clot in my right lung for the last couple of months. I had to stop working out which put me into a depression. And I really didn’t know what to do because losing weight was something I have to do because of my health issues.
New to BJJ? Start at Crypto Jiu Jitsu - Peoria, Arizona
Crypto Jiu Jitsu - Peoria, Arizona 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 Crypto Jiu Jitsu - Peoria, Arizona
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.
