Frequently Asked Questions

“Do I need to bring a gi to my first class?”

We offer free loaner gis for beginners. Just bring water and wear a rashguard and shorts underneath. If you have your own jiu jitsu gi, please bring it. There’s no specific dress code, but your gi should be clean and without rips or tears.

“Where can I purchase a gi?”

Speak with Coach Derryck or Coach Leslie, and they will be more than happy to assist you with the purchase of gi(s) that suit your needs perfectly.

“What time should I arrive to my first class?”

It is preferable to arrive at least 15 minutes ahead of time, as this allows you to sign the waiver if you haven’t done so already. This extra time also gives you the opportunity to change into your gi and take a moment to stretch before class begins.
