From the reviews
Hey everyone! Tyler is seriously one of the best! I’m visiting from Arizona! Not only was Tyler super friendly and inviting. Which made me felt like I was back home! He is a true master at his craft! Still young ! But make no mistake! He is well trained! Also learned he trained in Brazil!🇧🇷 talk about authentic!
Tyler is the best Professor around! His knowledge and expertise are hands down superior to anyone in the Wichita metro and surrounding areas. He takes the time to teach and help you learn at your pace and yet pushes you to grow in confidence and application in everything he demonstrates.
Highly recommend!! Tyler is a very knowledgeable and excellent instructor. Great gym filled with great people!

New to BJJ? Start at Ethos Jiu Jitsu
Ethos Jiu Jitsu 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 Ethos 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.
