The classes they run
“I’ve been training BJJ for over 8 years and I’m a brown belt, but I’ve learned fundamentals from Professor Pedra that I somehow never picked up in all that time.”
“Besides being, a fantastic instructor, Pedro was a man of his word Pedro has a big heart and he cares about all of his students from children to someone like me that 70 years old.”

Your first BJJ class at Pedra 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. 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.
