From the reviews

I was apprehensive about trying a new Karate place for my 5yr old because we went to another establishment for a year and a half and after a couple of months my son lost interest...but I was determined to have him go because I felt it would be beneficial to him. It was the only place we had ever gone and after 1.

For about a year now I’ve been attending premier martial arts. Personally I find myself anticipating the next class, eager to learn new things. The instructor (Master Bryant) is always very kind and enthusiastic. In my years of martial arts, master Bryant is definitely the greatest instructor I’ve ever known.

★★★★★ — Erin, Jun 2022

I have known Sensei Cole for 6 years. We have worked and trained together and I can tell you first hand he has a vast knowledge of martial arts and self defense techniques paired with the ability to reach children and adults at their own level. Give Premier Martial Arts a try. You won't be disappointed!

★★★★★ — Paul, Dec 2022

This place is a rare find. There are plenty to kid's gyms and martial arts class but none of them have an atmosphere that is as conducive and instructors as good as this place.

New to BJJ? Start at Premier Martial Arts Johns Creek / Alpharetta

Premier Martial Arts Johns Creek / Alpharetta comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. 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 Premier Martial Arts Johns Creek / Alpharetta

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.
