What You Can Expect in Every Class...

Physical Warm Up Exercise

Every BJJ class begins with a dynamic warm-up to elevate students' heart rates and prepare their bodies for the practice ahead. These warm-ups may include exercises like jogging, jumping jacks, and stretching, which help to increase blood flow, loosen up muscles, and prevent injuries during training.

Technique Instruction

Each class features detailed instruction on a specific technique, complete with demonstrations by the instructor. Students have the opportunity to ask questions and receive feedback, ensuring they understand the technique thoroughly and can execute it correctly during live training.

Live Training or Sparring

Live training, also known as sparring, is a crucial component of BJJ classes, allowing students to practice techniques and apply them in real-world scenarios with actual opponents. This stage also provides a unique opportunity for more experienced students to teach and mentor their less experienced counterparts, fostering a supportive learning environment and promoting continuous growth within the BJJ community.

Warm Up

A proper warm-up is essential for preparing the body and mind for the challenges ahead.

02

Techniques

The core of any BJJ class revolves around teaching fundamental techniques that form the foundation of the martial art. By breaking down each technique into easy-to-understand steps, students can grasp the concepts more efficiently, while experienced practitioners can refine their skills and deepen their understanding.

03

Drilling & Repetition

Mastery of BJJ techniques requires consistent practice and repetition. In our classes, we allocate ample time for drilling, allowing students to practice the techniques they've learned under the watchful eye of the instructor. This focused practice helps solidify muscle memory and ensures students can execute techniques effectively during live training.

04

Life Skills

The final and most crucial step in running an outstanding BJJ class is incorporating live training, also known as sparring. Sparring allows students to apply the techniques they've learned in a real-world scenario, helping them develop timing, strategy, and adaptability. Furthermore, sparring provides an opportunity for more experienced students to mentor their less experienced counterparts, fostering a sense of community and mutual growth.

Every Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Class at our Academy is Engaging, Educational, & Enjoyable for Practitioners of All Levels.

Our approach differs from other martial arts by emphasizing technique, strategy, and adaptability over physical strength, making BJJ accessible to a wider range of individuals and promoting personal growth through continuous learning.
