Frequently Asked Questions

Most frequent questions and answers about our Adult Co-Ed Martial Arts Program.

remove

Do I need to be fit for this?

There are zero fitness requirements to be able to start our beginner Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes! One of the benefits of BJJ is that it relies on technique and timing rather than strength, speed, or athleticism.

Our students start at all different fitness levels, however, you will find that you do enhance your fitness by doing our BJJ classes at Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Peachtree City.

remove

I have no experience, what do I do?

Just show up! Upon arriving, you will be given a uniform (called a “gi”) and will be given a focused introductory lesson by one of our instructors before you join in the group class.

Every beginner class is taught with no previous experience necessary, so you will not feel left behind.

Our program is structured by class number (23 group classes), so you will always know exactly what techniques you will be learning on any given day. You can even check out the techniques of the day on GracieUniversity.com before class to get a head start!

remove

I’m not very sporty or co-ordinated. Will that be a problem?

Not at all. In fact, many students starting in our adult martial arts classes may have described themselves like that before they started. There is absolutely no experience necessary for any of our beginner classes. You will fit right in!

Give yourself some time, and you will be astounded at what your body is capable of, and how much you can improve! Our certified martial arts instructors are trained to keep their teaching simple, effective, and beginner-focused. So even the most uncoordinated person will develop ‘ninja-like’ skills! Come see for yourself!

How do I claim your limited time offer?

Additionally, you can always give us a call. We would love to chat with you about what we do, and to help you determine if our Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Peachtree City martial arts classes would be a great fit for you and your family!

remove

Is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for women?

Absolutely! Specifically because Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) has proven reliable in defending against larger opponents for nearly a century, it is the perfect martial art for women.

Many women train in our Women Empowered® program and then transfer into our co-ed Gracie Combatives classes. However, both programs are suitable for female beginners. 

We love seeing the physical confidence develop in our female students as they gain self-defense skills on the mat!

remove

What do I need to bring to my first martial arts lesson?

Upon arriving for your first jiu-jitsu class, we will provide a uniform, called a gi, for you wear. We recommend showing up in comfortable undergarments or leggings, and a t-shirt or rashguard that you can wear under your gi. We will also have training attire available for purchase after your class.
