From the reviews
We were hesitant to put my 3 year old in jiu jitsu because that age is rough when it comes to listening. We decided to take a chance, and we are so glad that we did. My son has some issues focusing but is getting better every class.
Jujitsu had been floating around in our house for a few months before we found Hightide Jujitsu and coach Albert. When I reached out to Albert, he offered myself and my two children a free class to try it out. We signed up immediately, and now each of us go to 3-4 classes a week.
I’m incredibly excited for a local BJJ gym to be open on Sundays!!! For a working class parent it can be challenging to make it to classes, but this availability opens up a lot of opportunities. It’s been a life long dream of mine to train along side my child.
Highly recommend for kidsvia friends of mine. The coaches are great. I have been watching the shop since it opened and see nothing but genuine excitement, clean space and lots of positive reviews from friends.
New to BJJ? Start at High Tide Jiu Jitsu
High Tide Jiu Jitsu 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 High Tide 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.
