No, you don’t need to buy a new gi before commiting. We will provide one for you as a loan for the free trial class.
We ask that you come about 10-15 minutes early so that you can find parking, fill out our waiver for class if you haven’t done it online and meet the Professor/Coach. We will also give you a tour of our facilities and fit you for a loaner Gi if you need one. Be sure to bring some water and wear athletic clothes.
Absolutely not! Jiu Jitsu is a great way to loose weight and get fit, so you practice Jiu Jitsu to get in shape, not the other way around.
We sell them at the academy. You can call us for more information or send an email.
Our loaner gis are typically reserved for our trial students, but we do rent out our loaners for $5 to students who forgot theirs at home.
Currently we offer free trials to all kids class without any obligations. We want you to be sure that’s something you want to do before committing. The only thing that we require is that you sign our consent form before you try any class. Adults must go through an interview (phone call) and we will discuss the class the best fits your needs.
