You’re welcome to stop by and watch anytime. To join in for a free trial, please book a quick call with a coach first (click “Get Started for Free” on this page). This ensures we are the right fit and have space for instructors to give you full attention. We cannot always accommodate walk-ins, but we will do our best!

You don’t need anything specific for your free orientation class! Just wear comfortable clothing that you can move freely in, like a regular t-shirt, and shorts.

If you enjoy your training and decides to join our program, coaches will happily chat with you about uniforms. They’re optional (not mandatory), and cost around ~$66.

Safety is our top priority. Our coaches work hard to create a safe and supportive training environment and prioritize a gym culture of safe and controlled training. We also have essential safety training as part of our enrolment process.

That said, martial arts is a combat sport and, while we do everything possible to prevent injuries, occasional bumps and bruises can happen. If you have an existing injury, please let your coach know so we can adjust your training accordingly.

No. You can pause or cancel anytime with just 7 days’ notice. No long-term commitment required.

Any comfortable t-shirt and shorts (or leggings) are perfect. Please wear shoes or thongs until you are on the mats and bring a water bottle. Otherwise, no other special gear or equipment is needed.

Besides regular training fees, the only extras are optional: uniforms (~$66, not required. You can train in regular clothes) and belt gradings. Your annual Jiu-Jitsu association fee is complimentary with enrollment.

Absolutely. Our classes are designed for all fitness and experience levels; from complete beginners to advanced students.

We structure sessions with a mix of technique drills, optional live sparring, and rest rounds to make sure everyone can train at their own pace. If you’re not ready to spar, no problem, just let the coach know and we’ll tailor the session to suit your comfort level.
