From the reviews

After attending a birthday party for his older cousin, my son came home and decidedly ask us if he could join the Dojo. Having no experience of Karate/Jujitsu, we were not sure what to expect from a martial arts program.

★★★★★ — Daniel, May 2024

Our family has nothing but good things to say about Warhorse. Very responsive to our questions, excellent with the kids. My son can have a hard time with focus and listening so I was concerned about signing him up but they promised me it would be fine and they were right.

★★★★★ — Raadel, Jul 2021

Great teachers! Great program! Mr. Grey and Mr. Tong are very knowledgeable instructors and follow an authentic Karate & Gracie Ju Jitsu program that all ages can enjoy. They run a morally sound discipline with real world skills that anyone can benefit from.

★★★★★ — Robert, Oct 2023

I signed my son up for Warhorse Karate • Jiu Jitsu to see if it was a sport that he liked. My son still talks about his first meeting with Master Tong where it was explained to him that earning a black belt takes a lot of time and hard work and is similar to climbing a mountain.

Your first BJJ class at Warhorse Karate • 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.
