Will I Be "Fighting" Other Students?

Not at all! You will learn battle-tested Jiu-Jitsu and self-defense techniques safely. We do, of course, offer live sparring, what we call (ROLLING) when you're ready to provide you with the best conditioning of your life and to more fully prepare you should a real-life confrontation arise. The great thing is if at any time you feel uncomfortable, all you do is tap twice with your hand or foot, which stops the roll immediately…. we're always safe!
