Fundamentals Course & Beginners

Two ways to start

Your first weeks on the mat

Start with the six-week Fundamentals Course or a Beginners class. Both teach the basics at a pace for someone brand new, before you step into All-levels sessions. No experience, no pressure, and nobody expecting you to know a thing.

01

Fundamentals Course

This six-week introduction builds one foundation at a time. Posture, escapes, the handful of core positions everything else is built on. You’ll drill them until they feel natural, and you’ll roll gently and safely while it all sinks in. Get these right and the rest of jiu-jitsu opens up.

02

Who it’s for

Total beginners, and anyone coming back after a break who wants to sharpen the basics. You don’t need to be fit, flexible or tough. You just need to turn up and be willing to learn.

03

Where it leads

Once the foundations are there, you’re ready for All-levels classes. Most people are surprised how quickly they go from lost to holding their own.
