BEGINNERS – START YOUR JIU-JITSU JOURNEY

New to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu? Our Beginners Program in Floreat is the perfect place to start.

Designed for people with little or no experience, this program focuses on fundamental techniques, self-defence, and building confidence step by step in a welcoming and supportive environment.

Train alongside others on the same journey while building fitness, skills, and consistency.

A typical Fundamentals class

0 – 10 min

Warmup — light movement, BJJ-specific mobility, some basic shrimps and rolls.

10 – 25 min

Technique of the day — coach demonstrates 1–2 related techniques with detail and variations.

25 – 45 min

Drilling with partners — reps, reps, reps. Coaches walk the mat correcting details.

45 – 60 min

Positional rolling (optional) — light rolling from the position you just drilled. Beginners can tap out any time.

What you'll learn in the first 3 months

The closed guard — the heart of beginner Jiu-Jitsu. Basic attacks and how not to get your guard passed.

Side control — how to hold it, how to escape it. Two lessons every beginner needs.

Mount — upa escape, elbow escape, and attacking from the top.

Back control — chokes, hand-fighting, and the escape that works against everyone.

Standing fundamentals — basic takedowns, guard pulls, staying safe on your feet.

Survival and tapping — the most important skill in BJJ, and the one we teach you first.

Questions beginners always ask

“Will I have to fight people?” Only when you’re ready. Live rolling is always optional for new students, and when you do roll, you start with other beginners or patient senior belts.

“Am I too out of shape?” BJJ is how most members got in shape. Go at your own pace — 60 minutes disappears fast.

“Will I get hurt?” BJJ is statistically one of the safest combat sports. No strikes. Ever. If something feels wrong — tap. Your partner stops immediately.

Timetable: Fundamentals classes run 06:30, 09:15, 12:15 and 18:30 most weekdays. VIEW FULL TIMETABLE →
