Adult BJJ Classes

At Vida Jiu-Jitsu we follow a formatted curriculum in our adult 101 and 201 classes. 101 curriculum rotates each week and the weekly curriculum includes a Judo or wrestling based takedown, a ground position, and the escape from and/or attacks from that ground position. The 201 curriculum changes monthly and focuses on more advanced concepts of BJJ. We also offer two open mats on Fridays, Adult Competition Class on Friday evenings,  and Q&A class on Saturdays, which consists of 5-minute rounds with a question/answer session in between each round.

BJJ 101 Classes

Our 101 curriculum is designed to accommodate adults of all sizes and fitness levels, focusing on mastering the fundamentals of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. The curriculum immerses the students in the fundamental principles and techniques of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, all while improving fitness and building confidence. Our refined instructional methods allow our classes to be simple enough for the most inexperienced practitioner to quickly grasp and perform the techniques taught, while providing enough detail for even high level competitors to benefit greatly from the in-depth technique reviews and drills.

Class will end with “rolling,” a form of sparring unique to grappling martial arts. “Rolling” is one of the main reasons for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu’s extreme effectiveness, as it is one of the few forms of sparring that allows students to practice their techniques at 100% resistance without fear of injury.

Students experience results that go beyond gains in strength, flexibility, fitness or self-defense skills. By remaining truthful to the lessons learned in practice and applying them off the mats, Vida students experience an overall improvement on their focus, energy and general well-being.
