From the reviews
In town visiting family for a week and I made contact with Professor Adam and was able to attend a couple classes. I have never been more impressed with a vibe that the gym gives off more than here.
Professor Nadow is a top notch teacher. His passion for the sport is extremely evident. He displays a mix of patience and motivational coaching that will make you want to come back day after day to continue to learn and grow!
When I first started Jiu-Jitsu in the beginning of this year, Professor Adam was was very friendly and welcoming. He took things slow for me and explained the mechanics behind every move he taught me so that I could understand them better. He really knows his stuff.
I have known Adam since 2011. We competed as blue belts and have been friends since. He was a great competitor and went on to get his Black Belt and dedicate his life to learning all of the details of the sport at the very highest levels.
New to BJJ? Start at Fudoshin Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Fudoshin Brazilian 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 Fudoshin 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.
