From the reviews
Future School of Jiu-Jitsu is hands down the best jiu-jitsu school around. The knowledge of Professor Thaisio and Professor Igor are like no other. They provide top of the line training and instruction. The school has several coaches who are also very experienced and have a wealth of knowledge.
I cannot say enough great things about Future School of Jiu Jitsu. My Son has been attending classes here for 10 months. He is absolutely obsessed and thriving. You will not find a more family oriented environment. I have recently joined too as a 34 year old out of shape mother and absolutely love my time on the mat.
All three of my children are students of the Future School of Jiu Jitsu and love it. All of the coaches are excellent and take their time with each child to ensure the comprehend the lessons. I would recommend them to any family wanting to teach their children discipline and focus.
My son and I have been training here almost four years, and we absolutely love it. The gym is always super clean and has such a welcoming family atmosphere. It’s family owned, and you can really feel the heart and integrity they put into every aspect.
New to BJJ? Start at FUTURE SCHOOL OF JIU JITSU-ST JAMES
FUTURE SCHOOL OF JIU JITSU-ST JAMES 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 FUTURE SCHOOL OF JIU JITSU-ST JAMES
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.
