From the reviews
This is a fantastic academy. Everyone is very welcoming and treat you like family. I had to travel to Auburn for a couple months and they took me in like I'd been there for years.
This school has helped me in immeasurable ways: I am in better physical shape, I feel I am in better mental shape and I have accomplished things I never thought I was capable of, all thanks to this school and the great coach and students.
A welcoming environment that soon makes you feel like you’re part of a family. In fact, I now consider the people of this gym to be family. The caring people here have helped me out multiple times both inside and outside of the gym.
I dropped by on a Wednesday evening unannounced and was welcomed by the students while the kids class was going on and then invited right into the adult class by the owner. During class he went over some darce escapes one of which fills a hole in my game. I went back for Saturday open mat and had a good time.
Your first BJJ class at Flow 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.
