Here are some FAQs:

Q: I have never done anything like this before and am so out of shape. Can I still do BJJ?

A: Absolutely. For complete beginners, we have perfected our tryout process so that you get the one on one attention that you deserve and need for what is required without any fear of intimidation or injuries. By coming to class on a consistent basis, your cardio and endurance will improve as you spend more time on the mats. We have a very systematic basic curriculum that we employ our instructors to work with you on upon your first couple of weeks to months to ensure the retention of knowledge and practical application to gain the most out of what BJJ can do for you.

Q: Do I need any special equipment?

A: All you need is a gi and a belt! Don’t have one? No problem. If you are a seasoned practitioner but don’t have a gi, we have them for sale or rental. Other optional equipment includes mouth guards and rashguards which we highly recommend. For women, it’s suggested that you bring sportswear similar to sports bras, high neck tanks or shirt, and yoga short or leggings.

Q: What can I expect in my first class?

A: Upon arrival, about 15 minutes before your scheduled class time, you will be greeted by one of our friendly staff members who will have you fill out a waiver and show you to the changing rooms. The classes follow a simple flow: a warm-up which includes stretching, cardio, and conditioning, followed by the drill and technique of the day, and ending with what we call “rolling” or sparring. (Don’t worry if you are not comfortable rolling the first day, it is not required!) Once the class is done, you will be directed to schedule your second class ideally within the same week, so that comprehension and application of what you learned is not interrupted.

Q: I’m 50… Am I going to be able to keep up?

A: Emphatically, yes. One aspect that is so great about BJJ is you can start at any age! At VSBJJA, we pride ourselves in having one of the most internationally ranked Masters team of students. Our students range from 5yrs old to 55+. You’ll be able to train at your own pace while still being pressed to reach your personal best. There are no judgements or egos here.
