Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to be in decent shape to learn Jiu-Jitsu?

Not at all. Jiu-Jitsu focuses on timing, mechanical advantages, and leverage.

Do I need any experience in martial arts or grappling to be good?

No martial arts or grappling experience is necessary. Our instructors are adept at breaking techniques down for all skill levels.

Am I too old to start training?

Jiu-Jitsu can be started at any age!

Are you a gi or no-gi school?

At Jackson Jiu-Jitsu our techniques can be used in gi or no-gi scenarios. We also believe in “training for the season” and are more likely to wear our gi jackets when people wear jackets and hoodies out and about.

Are you a competition school?

We do have a small group of students that participate in competitions, but we do not push or require competition.

My family wants to train together, are there any discounts for families?

Families that train together, stay together! We have several discounts available for families to take advantage of!
