Yes! Our classes are packed with students from a wide array of martial arts backgrounds. Some hold high rank in other martial arts, while for others, BJJ is the first art they have studied. CVBJJ is a welcoming environment. Regardless of your martial arts background, you are welcome to train, learn, and grow with us.

Comfortable clothing like shorts and a t-shirt will be fine for your first day of training with us. Once you decide jiu iitsu is right for you, you will want to purchase a gi (training uniform).

Absolutely! One of the main goals of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is the use of technique and leverage to control, protect, and even submit a much larger opponent. Therefore, it is perfectly suited for females to use for self defense—something CVBJJ specializes in teaching.
