From the reviews
I've been training here about a year now. Before visiting the gym I had been looking for a place for about a year and was losing my motivation for Jiu Jitsu. When I arrived they never once charged me a mat fee. The comradere, respect, and being a good training partner is more important in this place.
I absolutely love the positive environment in this gym. Between David Zelner and Rhino, you have access to some of the best BJJ and fighting(MMA) knowledge around. I would highly recommend that you take full advantage of that.
Absolutely love this gym! My husband and I live an hour away and we make the drive as often as we can to train here. Professor Brandon is not only very knowledgeable, he really knows how to push you as an athlete and competitor as well. I highly recommend this gym and can’t wait to visit again!
If you have been on the fence on if you should start training or if you’ve been struggling to find a place where you think you’ll fit in, don’t waste any more of your time and just come to PSF Space Coast.
New to BJJ? Start at Pedigo Submission Fighting Space Coast | Jiu Jitsu | Self Defense
Pedigo Submission Fighting Space Coast | Jiu Jitsu | Self Defense 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 Pedigo Submission Fighting Space Coast | Jiu Jitsu | Self Defense
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.
