Do I need prior martial arts experience or peak fitness to start?

No prior experience or advanced physical fitness is required to join beginner BJJ classes. Most academies run dedicated fundamentals curricula that focus on essential movements, safety precautions, and break-falling before introducing live sparring.

What is the difference between Gi and No-Gi BJJ classes?
