From the reviews

Same Day Jiu Jitsu is a smaller gym. Which is perfect if you dont want judgment or big classes. They have some of the best BJJ Kick Boxing and MMA coaches you will find in the area and also due to the smaller class sizes you will get more 1 on 1 training time. Kids Classes are available too.

★★★★★ — Taylor, Apr 2025

SDJJ has a pro MMA striking coach & Jiujitsu black belt running the program, these guys rock. Excellent place to train or bring the kiddos to burn energy!

Your first BJJ class at Same Day 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.

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.
