Start With Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Adult training at Bushido starts on the mats with structured, coach-led Jiu-Jitsu. Once you’re training consistently, you can add Kickboxing/Muay Thai as an upgrade.

THE GENTLE ART

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Learn positional control, escapes, and submissions through coached drilling and partner practice—built for total beginners and still challenging for experienced grapplers.

  • Fundamentals first: posture, base, and safe movement

  • Escapes and defense before you worry about submissions

  • Positional control + simple, high-percentage attacks

  • Gi and No-Gi paths as you progress

FIND YOUR DISCIPLINE

Which Class Should I Try?

You do not need prior experience or high-level conditioning to start. Here is a clear breakdown of the two core training paths to help you pick your first session.

Grappling (BJJ & Wrestling)

Focuses on leverage, takedowns, control, and submissions. There are no punches or kicks thrown. You learn how to neutralize resistance and escape difficult positions using technique over pure strength.

  • Zero striking or head impact during sparring

  • High mental stimulation (often called physical chess)

  • Develops core grip, hip mobility, and body control

  • Ideal if you enjoy tactical problem-solving

Striking (Boxing & Muay Thai)

Focuses on stand-up combat using punches, kicks, knees, and elbows alongside head movement and footwork. Sessions emphasize heavy pad-work, conditioning, balance, and rhythm.

  • High-calorie cardiovascular output and endurance

  • Sharp reflexes, distance management, and timing

  • Pad and bag work with controlled beginner drills

  • Ideal if you want fast-paced, high-energy rounds

COMMON INQUIRIES

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about starting your training journey with total confidence. Have additional questions? Our coaching staff is always ready to assist.

Do I need to be in shape before starting?

Not at all. Our introductory classes are engineered for all fitness backgrounds. You do not get in shape to train - you train to get in shape. Every drill and movement is scalable to your current conditioning level, allowing you to build endurance and power progressively in a supportive environment.

Is sparring mandatory in training sessions?

No. Live sparring is strictly optional and reserved exclusively for advanced students who specifically request it and demonstrate controlled technique. General classes focus on pad work, heavy bag drills, defensive mechanics, and functional conditioning without head contact or mandatory fighting.

What gear or equipment do I need for my first class?

For your trial session, comfortable athletic workout wear and clean athletic footwear or bare feet (depending on the discipline) are all you need. We provide complimentary sanitized loaner gloves and hand wraps for first-time visitors. If you decide to join, our pro shop provides full beginner starter packs.

Are the classes safe for complete beginners?

Safety is our primary principle. Every session is led by certified instructors who monitor technique, pacing, and form. You will be paired with experienced teammates or coaches during partner drills to ensure a controlled, injury-free learning experience.

How often should I attend each week to see real progress?

Most new members experience noticeable improvements in conditioning, mobility, and confidence by attending 2 to 3 sessions per week. Consistency is key, and our flexible morning and evening schedule makes regular attendance easy to maintain.
