From the reviews
Logan is 100% the full package of awesomeness. His knowledge of all things Jiujitsu and self defense is top notch and his ability to break it all down into easy understandable ways is equally impressive. His positivity is contagious and he’s a pure joy to be around!
I can’t say enough good things about Profectus Jiu Jitsu! My son has been attending for two years now, and it all started with Professor Logan, who runs the kids' class. He has created a fun, competitive, and, most importantly, safe environment for the kids.
I Highly recommend joining Profectus jiu-jitsu Hendersonville’s Gym!! Not only is it beneficial for your mind and body but the Coaches are amazing. Coach Logan is so great with the kids and really takes time to work with their individual strengths and struggles.
I can’t speak highly enough of all the coaches and kids there, they are all extremely good at what they do! Everyone is so respectful and helpful. Seeing how the older kids are able to adapt and help the younger kids is such a good thing to see.
New to BJJ? Start at Profectus Jiu-Jitsu Hendersonville
Profectus Jiu-Jitsu Hendersonville 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 Profectus Jiu-Jitsu Hendersonville
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.
