From the reviews
I took advantage of their free 30 day trial, came to three classes, and was hooked and signed up! I have had nothing but great experiences at each class - personable coaches, great instruction, a culture of camaraderie, clean and neat space. Also more affordable compared to other gyms in the area.
I love this gym! Not only is there a great community at Stoic, the coaches are great with breaking down technique. The classes are organized and you will get a workout. The environment is very encouraging and energetic!
We are a Stoic family! My husband has been attending here for almost 3 years, my son has been here since he was 5 years old (he is almost 8), and my 4 year old daughter started here last year.
I was skeptical at first since I’ve never seen any Jiu-Jitsu school take 4 year olds, but after trying it I was very impressed by the curriculum and organization. Amazing instructors and environment for all ages.
New to BJJ? Start at Stoic Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Stoic 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 Stoic 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.
