Private Lesson Q&A

How do I book a lesson?

To book a private lesson, reach out to the instructor directly to find a day/time that works.

Are private lessons for me/why do a private lesson?

If you:

  • want a coach to directly evaluate your game
  • want direct undivided attention from their coach
  • want better insight into how to train to improve or move up a level
  • are in need of some technical adjustments to your fundamentals or game
  • are feeling stuck in a plateau or slump
  • are getting back into training after an injury or a long time off
  • have a limited schedule to attend group classes regularly
  • want to learn specific techniques that the coach is highly knowledgeable with

Then, yes!

Can I do a semi-private lesson?

Semi-private lessons can be shared between 2-4 participants. Instructors can watch and analyze your game from an outside perspective, and you can split the cost between the participants.

What do I need to do ahead of time?

To get the most out of your private lesson, it is best to let your instructor know what you’d like to cover in advance. What are your goals for this training?

  • Get better at _________
  • Understand _________ better
  • Develop a training plan
  • Analyze your game to find issues
  • Roll with coach and get feedback on what to work on
  • Have coach review rolling/competition footage

Types of Jiu-Jitsu Classes and Training

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is not like any other martial art. There is no unified method of teaching BJJ. It is left up to the head instructor of the school to format the program with different types of classes. These can vary from school to school and from instructor to instructor.

We offer a variety of training types that form the foundation of our Jiu-Jitsu program:

  • Group Instructed Classes
    • BJJ Basic Courses – Entry level
    • Level 1 – White belt to Blue belt
    • Level 2 – Blue and up
    • Mixed Levels
  • Drill/Roll Practice Sessions
  • Situational Marathons
  • Competition Training
  • Open Mats

However, there are also other types of classes that are great opportunities to excel outside of our normal program times and classes:

  • Private Jiu Jitsu lessons // 1-on-1 with coach
  • Semi-private Lessons // 2-4 participants
  • Group private workshops// 5+ participants

Our coaches put in long hours planning classes, training, and forming curriculum for the whole program. The basic combination of classes we offer is a balance of group classes, open mats, and situational roll training, which is a great routine for development. However, there may be times when you need extra help and guidance, or want the undivided attention of the instructors.
