From the reviews
My daughter is in the 9-14 year old class and she absolutely loves it. All of the Coaches are so nice patient with all the children. Everyone there has become extended family.
We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Horsemen Jiu Jitsu! My 7 year-old attends classes here, and from day one it has been such a welcoming, positive environment. Coach Getty is truly outstanding, patient, kind, encouraging, and everything you could hope for in a coach working with kids.
I can’t say enough about how welcoming and friendly this gym and coach Getty are! From the moment I walked through the door, the staff and members made me feel right at home. The instructors are incredibly approachable, taking the time to explain techniques with patience and enthusiasm, no matter your skill level.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can't say enough about our experience at Horsemen. From the day we joined, we felt welcomed and part of a wonderful community. All of them are not only an incredible instructors but also fantastic role models. Their passion for jiu jitsu and commitment to each student truly shines through in every class.
New to BJJ? Start at Horsemen Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Horsemen Brazilian 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 Horsemen 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.
