From the reviews
We tried out the class today and we really enjoyed it. The only reason we may not come back is because of the distance. I would recommend. The kids loved it. It feels like a real gym where they can learn so great MMA skills. Ty for having us ❤️ I also like how they don’t have these ridiculous contracts.
Great mixed martial arts class. UPRISING MMA has very detailed oriented coaches. Very structured and discipline lessons.
Best place to train in Las Vegas, the Coaches are very experienced and professional, they make you feel like family, it has really been a great experiencie. Very good to train every minute with this great Uprising family
We live Uprising. Our son is 9 and participates in Judo, ju jitsu, wrestling and a few other classes. The instructors are great. Luis, the owner is always great with our questions or concerns.
New to BJJ? Start at Uprising MMA
Uprising MMA 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 Uprising MMA
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.
