WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
REAL GI TRAINING.
BUILT PROPERLY.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in the Gi is built around control, leverage and technical problem solving. Using the grips of the jacket, you’ll learn how to control positions, escape bad situations, attack submissions and move with purpose.
The pace of Gi training makes it ideal for beginners because it gives you time to understand what is happening, make decisions and develop proper technique instead of relying on strength.
Technical Development
Learn grips, posture, timing and movement in a structured way.
Sweeps & Escapes
Build the ability to recover, reverse and improve position.
Submissions
Understand how attacks are created through control and pressure.
Positional Mastery
Develop confidence in guard, mount, side control and back control.
For All Levels
Train alongside beginners, hobbyists and experienced grapplers.
Control & Leverage
Use technique and positioning instead of relying on size or strength.
WHAT A CLASS LOOKS LIKE
STRUCTURED.
FRIENDLY. PROPER.
A Gi class is built to help you learn properly, not just survive the session. You’ll be guided through the class step by step, with coaches explaining what you’re doing, why it matters and how it fits into your overall development.
Beginners are supported throughout, and live training is introduced in a way that keeps the room safe, useful and productive for everyone.
Warm Up
Movement, mobility and prep for the session ahead.
Technique
Clear instruction broken down into useful details.
Drilling
Repetition with purpose so the movement starts to stick.
Positional Sparring

Sparring / Rolling

Can I start BJJ with no experience?
Yes. Most beginners start with no background at all. Classes are structured so you can learn safely and build confidence step by step.
Do I need a Gi to start?
No. You can start in comfortable training clothes. If you join through the Gi Pathway, your Fortitude Gi and belt are included.
What age can adults train?
Adult and older teen sessions are suitable from age 14+, depending on maturity, ability and the class being attended.
Is sparring mandatory?
No. Live rolling is introduced when appropriate. Beginners are supported and never expected to jump in before they are ready.
Can I train Gi and NoGi?
Yes. Many members train both. Gi helps develop control and detail, while NoGi develops movement, reactions and faster-paced grappling.
How often should I train?
Most beginners do well with two sessions per week. You can train more if your schedule allows, especially with unlimited membership options.
What if I’m not in shape?
You do not need to be fit before starting. Fitness improves naturally through consistent training.
What should I bring to my first class?
Wear comfortable training clothes, bring sliders or flip-flops for off the mats, and arrive ready to learn. Bottled water is included.
How long does it take to get good?
Progress depends on consistency. You will learn useful skills early, but BJJ is a long-term martial art built through regular training.
Is BJJ safe?
Classes are coached, structured and controlled. Like any physical activity there is risk, but safety and good training habits are built into the room.
Is there parking?
Yes. Parking information can be confirmed before your first visit so you know exactly where to go.
Do you offer drop in classes?
Yes. Drop-ins may be available depending on the class. Membership is usually better value if you plan to train regularly.
