From the reviews
Our family moved from San Diego to Sahuarita and it’s was very important for us to find a Brazilian jujitsu academy that not only trained the gentle art but a place to build a family as well! SBJJ is just that!
Sahuarita Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is not just a business, it IS a family. Professor Ray Rogers and Coach Mike Torres do such an amazing job with the kiddos. Their passion and love for BJJ is undeniable. There is no other academy that we would EVER think of taking our sons to train at.
Sahuarita Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a fantastic experience. My son and I have been a part of the SBJJ family for over a year. Everyone is so supportive and talented. Great lessons in self-discipline, respect, and dedication from Professor Ray Rogers and Coach Mike Torres.
This Carlson Gracie school is an affiliate school to my home school in Battleground WA (BMA). When I visited my family in AZ I train here. They open their arms to me and tear me like Gold. Excellent technique and awesome instructors.
Your first BJJ class at Sahuarita 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 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.
