From the reviews

I am out of town for work and was looking to get a training session in. As soon as I walked in I knew I was in the right place. Cory let me jump right in his class and treated me like family. The facility is big with tall ceilings and a large matt area. I enjoyed their playlist of music.

★★★★★ — Cameron, Aug 2024

Great Gym with adult and kids program. One of the most important things to me in a gym is the culture of the gym. This gym is family oriented, the people are friendly, and helpful. There is absolutely friendly competition, but the overall feeling is supportive.

★★★★★ — Angel, Oct 2019

I started with Unum a couple of years ago and it is now my home away from home. The gym is awesome, people are great, and the training is second to none. Something for your whole family. Kids classes, women’s classes, advanced classes, and comp classes.

★★★★★ — Nathan, Mar 2024

I was in town for a few weeks for work and quickly found out that Unum Jiu Jitsu is the best plan to train in Ridgecrest! Coach Cory and his team were incredibly welcoming from day one. Great vibes, great coaches, and great training partners. I highly recommend Unum Jiu Jitsu!

Your first BJJ class at TRUJITSU Unified-Unum 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.
