From the reviews

We couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible experience our son has had at this Ninety5 Jiu Jitsu. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warmth, professionalism, and genuine care.

★★★★★ — Matt, Jun 2025

We have been part of NJJ since they opened and I’m so grateful! My daughter has learned invaluable lessons here, not only how to defend herself but also discipline, confidence, and respect. The instructors are patient, professional, and truly care about each student’s growth.

★★★★★ — Alessandra, Sep 2025

The choice to train under Norman Carlton and his father Yuri has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Professor Norman is a solid human being from his passion for martial arts to his caring for each every student that passes through his doors.

★★★★★ — Devon, Mar 2024

Wow. Ninety5 is truly an exceptional place. Professor Yuri genuinely treats every child as if they were his own grandchild. He cares for them with love and respect while instilling discipline and strong values.

★★★★★ — Diana, Nov 2025

New to BJJ? Start at Ninety5 Jiu Jitsu

Ninety5 Jiu Jitsu 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 Ninety5 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.

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.
