From the reviews
On April of 2021 we walked into TXBBA with Groupon and our granddaughter. We were looking for something to help our granddaughter learn how to control her temper and how to interact with people in a calm fashion. Master Waugh, Professor Jackson and the whole TXBBA family were warm a welcoming.
I have trained Jiu Jitsu and kickboxing at this Academy for years. It's always such a pleasant experience and such a positive environment! I have grown personally and artistically over the years while attending. There is so much love, patience, and encouragement from both the Masters and Professors.
Wonder staff, very very friendly and very respectful to students and parents. My son love coming and he loves the profesor/ coaches
I cannot recommend this academy enough. Not only are the coaches wonderful, but all of the teammates and assistants are too. My son is in Little Dragons and I am continually blown away by the coaches (Professor Jackson and also Coach Moore). They are firm and disciplined while being kind and fun.
Your first BJJ class at TX Black Belt Academy Arlington
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.
