From the reviews
I train here, my wife trains here, my kids train here. It's been a great experience. ZeroBJJ is fantastic. There is a reason why it's growing so much. I've been to other gyms where I felt I wasn't needed; where I was simply in the room taking class but not part of the group. I've never felt that here.
This is a great place to come and train. My son actually started first, and subsequently talked me into coming as well.Now my whole family trains here. The instruction is excellent - a great balance of basic and advanced topics, with instruction on jiu jitsu for sport and self defense.
Simply the best place to train. Mike is an amazing instructor. He is a natural teacher who loves to share his (extensive!) knowledge with patience and kindness. He takes joy in each student’s success whether you train to compete at an elite level or simply want a great workout like me.
When I met coach Mike I had already previously competed in MMA and BJJ tournaments. He has completely changed my style and technique and made me so much better. Top quality instruction from the best instructors around.
New to BJJ? Start at Zero Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Zero Brazilian Jiu Jitsu comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. 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 Zero Brazilian 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.
