From the reviews
Many times, over the course of several years, I realized I needed to follow a healthy lifestyle, but I sure didn’t want to go to a gym! What was this lazy 50 year old advertising agency guy going to do? I was never an athlete growing up and I can tell you that I have never set foot inside of an LA Fitness.
This is a truly his school is unique martial arts school! I had been training at another highly regarded martial arts school for many years before I found Oom Yung Doe. I soon realized that I had only begun to scratch the surface of what martial arts can do for you. The training at this school is unparalleled!
I started martial arts with Tae kwon do at the age of 9 in Winter Park with my brother. It was great but we moved so I only got to stay for a little bit. Later on in around 2009 I started martial arts again doing Tae Kwon Do and Kung Fu.
Real martial arts, not glorified babysitting. My 8 year old shy beginner came out of his shell the first day. Very pleased with all the instructors. Their patience and willingness to teach children firmly but gently keeps my son coming back. UPDATE: My younger son is 5 and has also joined.
New to BJJ? Start at Oom Yung Doe - 8 Martial Arts - Oviedo
Oom Yung Doe - 8 Martial Arts - Oviedo 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 Oom Yung Doe - 8 Martial Arts - Oviedo
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.
