From the reviews

This is the best martial arts gym in the area. I was looking for a place to really learn how to do Muay Thai and BJJ and found this place first and the instruction is top notch, the people are friendly and treat you like family, and you feel like you’re actually learning instead of just getting a sweat in aimlessly or…

Tim (Boxing) & Alice (Fight Like A Girl) are the best trainers/coaches! I just started taking boxing last week, but I've been taking Alice's class for almost 2 months now. Her strength and guidance helped me overcome the fear of "violence", after being a victim of abuse for over 20 years.

★★★★★ — Kandi, Oct 2018

Revolution Fight and Fitness is a fight gym dedicated to helping everyone. No one there judges you for your physique, skill level, or your background. As long as you show up and do the work, you're part of the family.

★★★★★ — Kayla, Dec 2018

I started here about a year ago and it was the best decision I've made in a long time. I started for physical improvement (which has happened) but stay for the mental peace it's brought. I was FAR from being in good physical shape but everyone there is welcoming so it made it easy to keep walking in.

New to BJJ? Start at Revolution Fight and Fitness

Revolution Fight and Fitness 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 Revolution Fight and Fitness

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.
