From the reviews
Such a great gym to train BJJ. Both me and my daughter are taking classes. I really love the flexibility with the schedule, they have trainings in the morning, at noon, in the evenings. Everyone can find a good time to train. Rodrigo and all the coaches are super helpful and respectful.
My favorite gym I’ve ever trained at. Rodrigo, the Tacketts, and all my training partners made this such a unique and special environment. I always tell people that Fight Factory is the perfect mix of a great culture and tough training room.
Probably one of the most fun times I've had cross training at another gym. Everyone is super nice and the instructors were very knowledgeable. It would be a great gym for anyone "hobbyist" beginner on up to high level competitors.
If you're a parent or someone that has interest in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu you can not go wrong enrolling with this academy. Personally, I've learned a lot about myself training here.
New to BJJ? Start at Fight Factory Jiu-jitsu
Fight Factory 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 Fight Factory 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.
