From the reviews
I signed up my son for classes here in November of last year, and I love it! It's nice to see a business owner so present and invested in the everyday quality of business operations. Gena Waddy personally answered all of my many questions when signing up for my son.
This is an absolutely amazing gym! Everyone there is extremely accepting and you never feel like anyone is judging you. I do the adults classes and you couldn't find a better group of people to train with.
The training here, is the best you’ll find in the state of Wyoming. If not in the entire region. From the Jiu Jitsu, to the kickboxing. The bond that everyone has at this gym is amazing too! The chemistry the madhouse family has is next to none. And that’s What makes madhouse #1!
Madhouse is an amazing place to bring your family and make a new one. Mrs. Gena Waddy and Professor Waddy are some the best people you could ever meet. They are there for the families and help the children grow. They have many different classes with so many skilled instructors.
New to BJJ? Start at Madhouse BJJ
Madhouse BJJ 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 Madhouse BJJ
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.
