From the reviews
Was visiting from the east coast and came in for a class. Everyone was super kind and welcoming. The facilities were phenomenal and the instruction was top notch. I’ll be sure to come back any time I’m back in Enid!
Dylan is an amazing mentor and teacher he breaks down each step and really gives you that confidence and discipline at the same time and for the price it’s insane I’m extremely happy my friend recommended me to give it a shot I have done MCMAP before I went to Jiu Jitsu and this has just made me feel so much better…
Kids enjoy being in jujitsu. Staff has a lot of patience and understanding for beginners. Very knowledgeable
We have truly great coaches, the atmosphere is very welcoming, and there's plenty more to enjoy.
New to BJJ? Start at Shah Mat Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Shah Mat Brazilian Jiu Jitsu 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 Shah Mat 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.
