From the reviews

What can I say, this is a truly amazing group of people. The sense of community and strength of character emanates through everyone here. As someone new to the area, I struggled to find people focused mainly on self-development.

★★★★★ — Michael, Jul 2022

I was in Alabny for work and called these guys to see if I could drop in for a class. Faith texted me back and I was able to train that same night. Travis was the instructor and explained everything very well. I also rolled with him during open mat and he let me work and we had a great roll.

★★★★★ — Dan, May 2021

I send my kids here for training and they love every minute of it. The instructors are so kind and helpful. We have been with BJJ gyms in several states and Oregon Triad is the best we've seen. Literally everyone there are great people.

New to BJJ? Start at Oregon Triad Jiu-Jitsu

Oregon Triad 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 Oregon Triad 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.
