Beginner Jiu-Jitsu classes structure

Each class begins with a brief warm up, followed by specific positional training tailored to that session’s focus. Our experienced instructors provide step-by-step instruction, ensuring that every student can understand, perform, and become confident in the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu techniques being taught.

Classes conclude with controlled drilling to develop muscle memory, helping you internalise the positions and movements so they become second nature. This approach ensures that students at all levels build a strong and reliable foundation in Jiu Jitsu.

We pride ourselves on offering a supportive and open environment. During any of our Jiu Jitsu classes in Gloucester, you’re always encouraged to ask questions – our instructors are here to help and guide you. At Gracie Gloucester, your learning and progression are our priority, and no question goes unanswered.

The beginners program follows a timetable so that each lesson you will learn a new technique and positions.

 

Once the beginners program is over, it restarts from day one and goes over all the techniques again. So no matter when you join you will always be taught all the moves and techniques we follow all the rules from the IBJJF and we follow their health and safety policies.
