Frequently Asked Questions

Does my teen need any experience to start?
No experience is required. Many teens start with no background in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or martial arts. Classes are structured to support beginners while still challenging experienced students.

Will my teen be training with adults?
No. Teens train in a dedicated class with others their own age. This helps create a comfortable learning environment and ensures training intensity is appropriate.

Is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu safe for teens?
Yes. Safety is a top priority. Techniques are taught with control, and coaches closely supervise all training. Teens learn how to train responsibly and communicate with their partners.

For the free trial, comfortable athletic clothing such as a t-shirt and shorts or leggings is perfect. We’ll help with uniform (gi) options if they continue training.
