Not only are grappling classes great fun, they are an amazing workout. Many people who can't stand traditional fitness activities, or sports in general, find grappling to be an incredibly immersive mental exercise that has the added bonus of being an incredible workout.
FAQ:
1. Will I be able to keep up?
Yes, all of our classes are designed with a progressive development philosophy. You will be grouped with people who will help you grow, not hinder you, and you will be taught techniques that you can handle at your level.
2. Do I have to compete?
Absolutely not; the majority of people train for fun or fitness, not to compete. In our experience, most people will end up competing at least once when they are ready.
3. Do I have to buy gear?
Eventually yes. But until then [such as during your trial], we have gear for you to take class with. Once you decide to buy your own gear, you will find the cost to be a minimal investment.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu CT Offers A Full Body Workout
​
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a demanding physical activity that requires a full-body workout—the swift movements required during sparring elevate heart rate, which increases cardiovascular endurance. Furthermore, the sport involves the use of virtually every muscle group. The pushing, pulling, grappling, and footwork tones muscles and improves strength. While Brazilian Jiu Jitsu uses every muscle group, the strength and stability of the core are most heavily relied on to remain balanced, which is critical for defense against opponents. The benefit of a stronger and more stable core can be felt in just a few training sessions, which is excellent for posture and overall strength. Combining the cardiovascular exercise, strength training, and high-intensity movements involved in Jiu Jitsu training burns up to 500 calories in just 30 minutes! This incredible workout is sure to increase your metabolic rate to help you not only to lose weight but to be able to keep it off.
Part of Jiu Jitsu training is building stamina and working with practitioners to improve their endurance each session. While any new workout routine takes some time to see results, you will be astonished at how fast you feel stronger and healthier once you enroll in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu training. Regular training builds the stamina required to perform at a high level for extended periods.
