From the reviews
My son loves it here ❤️ He wanted to get more involved with different activities and we decided to give them a try and honestly was the best decision I’ve ever made. My son enjoys learning as well as interacting with everyone and developing new skills through every class.
Excellent instructors, great students! This is an awesome place to learn! I'm early 40s and have been curious (but very intimidated) to start jiu jitsu for years. The hardest thing, was walking in the door the first time. It's empowering, humbling, challenging and extremely rewarding.
Awesome gym. I reached out to these guys when I was working in Iowa Park for a week, and they told me to come in as a guest. Nick spread some new knowledge on to me that I will add to my Jiu Jitsu game. Thanks.
So thankful we found Iowa Park Jui Jitsu Club! This place is full of fun, kind and knowledgeable coaches and people. They have welcomed our boys with open arms and have taught them so much. Highly recommend!
New to BJJ? Start at Iowa Park Jiu Jitsu Club
Iowa Park Jiu Jitsu Club 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 Iowa Park Jiu Jitsu Club
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.
