From the reviews

I've been training here since its opened. I'm relatively new to martial arts, but I've seen dramatic improvements in my physical ability and confidence since then. The instructors are very welcoming and knowledgeable about the sport.

★★★★★ — Austin, Sep 2020

I train here, and it's a great place. Chris, Dave, and Dave are really good teachers. It's nice to have a purple belt in the Basin, plus we're getting some black belts out from the city to help train. Eddie Edmonds and Mike Diaz have both been out, and they're Pedro Sauer black belts.

★★★★★ — William, Aug 2020

My daughter has been doing BJJ at TJJ for a little over two and a half months, and I have to share how beneficial this has been to her overall athletic ability. She did do a little BJJ at another school, and yes she was younger, but I didn't see the positive changes I have seen from this school.

★★★★★ — Stetson, May 2024

Great facility. The instructors are very knowledgeable and patient as they teach technique and application. I'm fulfilling a dream I've had for 20 years to study Jiu Jitsu and it's a blast each training session. Well worth the investment of time and self.

New to BJJ? Start at Triad Jiu Jitsu

Triad Jiu Jitsu 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 Triad 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. 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.
