From the reviews

I dropped in for two judo classes the week after Christmas while I was in town visiting. The sensei was very welcoming and seemed happy to have a visitor. The class was 90 minutes and was well structured, either time for warm up, technique review, drill, and randori.

★★★★★ — Kevin, Jan 2024

Best ever judo academy super professional coach my son has been attending to this academy for two years and is national champion 2 years consecutive and I wonder those who has never been in our academy how can they share some false statements trying to minimize the great work of our coaches Abel Fernandez and Oscarito…

★★★★★ — Juan, Apr 2024

Sensei Abel and Sensei Oscar are top notch instructors that really care about their student's. Since I’ve started with them not only have I evolved as a martial artist I have evolved as a better leader, co worker, family member etc due to the respectful and family oriented atmosphere they instill in the dojo.

★★★★★ — X, Apr 2024

El compromiso y la dedicación de este profesor van más allá de simplemente enseñar técnicas en el tatami; él está también formando personas para la vida, inculcando valores como el respeto, la disciplina y la superación personal.

Your first BJJ class at Grappling Arts Jiu-jitsu & Judo LLC

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.

BJJ is a contact sport. Ease in, tap early and often, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
