What is a typical class like?
Each class follows a similar structure: warmup, technique practice, then live training.
Warmup— We do a fast-paced warmup to ensure we’re ready to move. The warmup reinforces jiu jitsu techniques and develops a basic level of conditioning.
Technique— Each day we practice a specific movement. These vary from basic to more advanced. Some days are designed for review. We focus on drilling and repetition so the movements come naturally during sparring.
Live rolling/sparring— Sparring after the technique of the day is not mandatory. This is a chance to try out your techniques against an opponent at whatever intensity you choose.
How many times a week should I attend classes?
We recommend attending classes at least 1-2 times a week to see progress and improvement.
What safety measures are in place during training?
We take safety very seriously and ensure that all students adhere to our safety guidelines.
We recommend a mouth guard for Jiu Jitsu and we also provide protective gear for Tae Kwon Do when necessary.
