The First 6 - An Introduction to Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

 

Start Date: September 13, 2026

Time: Sunday 10:15am-11:00am

Program Length: 6 weeks

Age: Adults 18+

Learn to escape, sweep, takedown, pass, control and submit.

Always wanted to try Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or another martial art but never took the leap?

The First 6 is a six-week program designed specifically for people with little or no Jiu-Jitsu

experience. Rather than jumping into an established class full of experienced

members, you’ll learn alongside other beginners and build your skills from the ground

up.

What You’ll Learn

Over six 45-minute classes, you’ll build a practical foundation in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and

learn how to:

  • ESCAPE vulnerable positions like mount and side control

  • SWEEP from the bottom to reverse position and get on top

  • TAKEDOWN safely and establish a strong position

  • PASS the legs to move into a more dominant position

  • CONTROL from positions like mount and back control

  • SUBMIT using fundamental techniques including arm locks and chokes

You’ll also learn how these techniques and positions connect, giving you a basic

roadmap of Jiu-Jitsu. By the end of six weeks, you won’t know *everything*, but you’ll

have real skills and a solid foundation to continue building on if you like.

Who is the First 6 For?

This program is a great fit if you:

  • Want to get active again without another repetitive workout at the gym

  • Miss the challenge, competition and camaraderie of playing sports

  • Are a Jiu-Jitsu parent who’s spent enough time on the sidelines and wants to experience it for yourself

  • Want to try BJJ before deciding whether you’d like to pursue it longer-term

  • Want practical skills that could help you protect yourself if the need ever arose

  • Want a new physical and mental challenge that’s actually fun to learn

No previous martial arts experience is required. Adults only.

Your registration also includes a fitted Jiu-Jitsu Gi and belt that are yours to keep.

If you’ve been telling yourself you’d like to try Jiu-Jitsu “someday,” this is an ideal place

to start.
