From the reviews
Joining SBG is one of the best decisions I have ever made! As an inactive woman in my early thirties I joined to get fit and learn something new. I had no idea I would love BJJ as much as I do and my life has changed so much because of it, all for the better!
SBG Missoula has created an amazing community. It is a safe space for my entire family (kids and all) to learn the art of Jiu Jitsu. The gym is always clean, the coaches really know what they are teaching, and their passion shows through. I really cannot say enough great things about the kids program.
SBG is an amazing gym filled with very genuine and caring people and coaches. They are always checking in on the students to make sure that they can get the most out of the program. They have always been extremely helpful with my personal goal's.
SBG Missoula offers a variety of martial arts disciplines under one roof, making it a compelling option for fitness enthusiasts in Missoula. From Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) and Judo to Boxing, Kickboxing, and MMA, SBG Missoula caters to a wide range of martial arts interests.
New to BJJ? Start at SBG Missoula - Brazilian Jiu Jitsu - Martial Arts - Boxing - Gym
SBG Missoula - Brazilian Jiu Jitsu - Martial Arts - Boxing - Gym 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 SBG Missoula - Brazilian Jiu Jitsu - Martial Arts - Boxing - Gym
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.
