Great teachers. Great location. Friendly members. Family environment. This gym changed me and my kids lives. Give it a try. Sensei Dan Dixon is extremely skilled and knows how train people masterfully. Thanks for everything Professor!

★★★★★ — Octavius, May 2017

I trained here for a couple years on and off. It's pretty great. A more passionate BJJ 'coach' probably doesn't exist. Dan really gets a lot of joy from seeing his students succeed, and he lets you know. When you're a member there, they really make you feel like part of the family.

★★★★★ — Silly, Sep 2024

Had the pleasure and honor to train with Dan, Tara, and the Wolf Pack while I stayed in the area. Everyone at the dojo was welcoming and the facilities are top notch. Not only did I get a great workout but I sharpened my skill. I would highly recommend Impact BJJ for anyone in the area, beginner or advanced.

New to BJJ? Start at Impact Fitness and Martial Arts

Impact Fitness and Martial Arts 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 Impact Fitness and Martial Arts

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.
