From the reviews
Great Tae Kwon do school. The instructors are very good with the kids. Master Diaz is great with my younger son. He has been with School for a little over 5 years and recently earned his black belt. He has really learned many life skills that are taught in many other places.
Mu Han has been a great place for me to restart my martial arts journey. I joined as an adult after moving from a different state where I had earned a black belt many years before but stopped practicing.
Over the past 20+ years I have been honored to train with Mu Han founder Master Jin Oh. Master Oh has trained me in multiple disciplines and awarded me with multiple black belts including Master Belt level. Achieving the level of Master was an incredible experience.
Mu Han Total Martial Arts in Franklin is where my own martial arts journey began, and it continues to represent everything I value in a dojang. The masters here are deeply knowledgeable and experienced, bringing a thoughtful, disciplined approach to every class.
New to BJJ? Start at Franklin Mu Han Total Martial Arts
Franklin Mu Han Total Martial Arts 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 Franklin Mu Han Total Martial Arts
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.
