From the reviews
Great Instructor, beautiful facility . Omar and Mariangel make you feel so welcomed and they teach great technique, Very grateful for this gym .
At the end of last year I joined OFBJJ with two of my kids (a 10-yr-old boy and 7-yr-old girl). I was 39, weak, and fat. I didn’t push the kids, I just wanted them to have a place to make friends and learn how to do physical stuff. I was happy to hear them say they wanted to keep going.
The people are very nice and the establishment is clean and up to date decor. They have kids classes and women's classes and open mat sessions all week. They do offer more extra classes and personal training for one on one personable lessons to enhance your martial arts knowledge and techniques.
Omar and Mariangel are building one of the best schools in the Tulsa area. Great instruction and great athletes. Very welcoming to all people, new or experienced. Definitely should check out OFBJJ of you are interested in grappling and self defense!
New to BJJ? Start at Omar French Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Omar French Brazilian 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 Omar French 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.
