“I walked in there my 1st very intimidated and didn't know what to expect… No tough guy egos, everyone helps each other. I drive almost an hour to class and pass by many other BJJ facilities, nothing compares.”

What stops most people
The honest answers
I'm out of shape.
That's where almost everyone starts. Class builds your conditioning. Waiting until you're fit means waiting forever.
Am I too old?
No. One of our members started after 40 and earned her blue belt two years later. Read: Am I Too Old to Start Jiu Jitsu?
Will I get hurt?
You control the pace. You tap when you're caught, your partner lets go, and you start again. Rules are enforced on this mat, and egos stay at the door.
I don't know anyone.
You will by the end of your first week. Training partners become friends fast when you're solving the same problems together.
Gi or No-Gi?
Both are on the schedule. Gi teaches grips and patience; No-Gi is faster and closer to self-defense in street clothes. Most members do both.
