Basics (Open to all levels)

This class is for those beginning their Brazilian Jiu Jitsu journey or experienced practitioners looking to ease back into training. Our beginner program teaches the foundational movements of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and the core self defence concepts. The focus of this class is on building strong fundamental techniques and since safety is our number one concern, there is no competitive sparring in this class. 

Jiu Jitsu Class (White Belts 1 stripe and above)

Our Jiu Jitsu classes offer a comprehensive training experience for students who have completed the basics program. Each class begins with individual warm-up exercises and technical revision to prepare for the session ahead. This is followed by technical instruction where we focus on the concepts and techniques with the highest percentage of success. We believe in the power of strong fundamentals, and our instructors take the time to delve into the details that allow students to execute techniques even better.

Positional training and situational drills are a key aspect of our classes. During this training, students practice live resistance techniques starting from specific positions and situations, with defined end points where they reset and start again. This allows for a deeper exploration of each position and is the perfect introduction to regular sparring training.

For those with more experience, free sparring/rolling is available after class.

Sparring (Invite only - positional sparring experience required)

This structured class is primarily focused on sparring (commonly referred to as "rolling" in BJJ). It is open to students with at least two stripes on their white belt and sufficient positional sparring experience. Attendance is by invitation to ensure readiness and safety.

Students control their training volume and intensity based on their goals, physical condition, or any injuries. This session offers a controlled yet challenging environment for skill refinement and application.

Open Mat  

Open mat is a time when you can come to the gym, and there is no set class, but the mats are “Open” for you to use. It is the perfect time to meet up with your friends and bond over your love for the game. Since there is not a structured class to plan around it is often a much more casual environment. Expect to see lot's of rolling (sparring), some drilling and talking. It's a great time to get to know your teammates. You can train as little or as much as you wish or simply just come to watch.

Pro Training (Invite Only – Blue Belts and Above)

Pro Training is for advanced students focused on high-level sparring and preparation for competitive scenarios. Sessions mix hard sparring, positional drills, and technical rounds with minimal instruction.

Students must bring both gi and no-gi gear, arrive prepared, and stay for the full 90-minute session. Attendance is by invitation only, ensuring a challenging and focused environment.
