Good to know

How much do Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes cost per month in the US?

Monthly tuition generally ranges from $120 to $250 for unlimited access to classes. Upfront costs often include a uniform (gi), which runs between $80 and $180 for standard lightweight models, plus a $30 to $50 registration fee.

What is the difference between Gi and No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu?

Gi training uses a heavy cotton kimono where sleeve, lapel, and pant grips are integral to submissions and controls. No-Gi training relies on rashguards and shorts, emphasizing body hooks, speed, and leverage without fabric grips.

What should beginners wear to their first BJJ class?

Beginners should wear form-fitting athletic wear without buttons, zippers, or hard plastic, such as a fitted t-shirt or rashguard with compression shorts. Most academies supply a sanitized loaner gi for your initial trial class.
