From the reviews
My son has been having a rough time at school so he wanted to try out jujitsu. We decided to sign up for three times a week and he has gone about 5 times so far and he really likes it.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ve been training at Genesis Jiu Jitsu for over 3 years now, and I can honestly say it’s been an amazing experience. The instruction is top-notch, with coaches who truly care about your progress whether you’re just starting out or more advanced.
Genesis Jiu Jitsu has been an incredible experience for our family. The coaches are top-notch—patient, knowledgeable, and truly invested in each student’s growth. They do an amazing job building confidence while teaching real skills. What really stands out is how quickly the kids improve.
I completed the free trial week, during which I attended 5 different classes with various instructors. All of the staff and instructors were helpful and welcoming, and made sure I had a good partner to practice techniques with. They work with your skill level and aid you in building up from there.
Your first BJJ class at Genesis 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.
