We had such an amazing time today teaching our first ever Realtor Self Defense Seminar! Huge thanks to Colton, Danielle, and Michael for coming up with the idea and doing all the work to make it a reality. As anyone who works in the Real Estate industry knows it can be a dangerous and unpredictable profession and a little awareness and knowledge of self defense can go a long way. Everyone did an amazing job with the material and we can’t wait to have everyone back for part 2!

Frequently Asked Questions
General Questions
Do I need to be in shape before starting?
Nope! BJJ is for all fitness levels. You’ll build strength, flexibility, and endurance naturally through training. Everyone starts somewhere, and our classes are designed to help you progress at your own pace.
Will I get hurt? How safe is the training?
We will work closely with and guide your practice. You will be in a controlled environment where you’ll learn to practice techniques safely with a partner. We’ll teach you how to tap (signal submission) to avoid injury. Safety is our top priority.
How long does it take to get a belt promotion?
Martial arts training is a journey, not a race. Promotions are based on skill, consistency, and personal growth — not just time on the mat. Everyone progresses differently, and each belt earned is a huge accomplishment!
What should I expect in my first class?
Expect a warm welcome! Classes usually start with a light warm-up, followed by learning techniques, practicing with a partner, and optional sparring (rolling). Don’t worry — we’ll pair you with someone experienced who can help you feel comfortable.
How often should I train as a beginner?
Twice a week is a great start! It gives you time to learn and build your skills without feeling overwhelmed. As you get more comfortable, you can train more often if you’d like.
Do I need previous experience in martial arts or sports?
Not at all. Many of our students had no prior experience before starting. BJJ is all about technique and problem-solving — you’ll learn everything step by step.
What if I feel uncomfortable or overwhelmed?
That’s totally normal at first. Everyone here remembers their first class, and we’re all rooting for you. Take breaks when needed, and know that you’re in a supportive environment.
Is there a dress code or etiquette I should know?
Yes, but it’s simple! Wear something comfortable that you can move in. T-shirt, leggings or athletic shorts (preferably without zippers) are recommended. Be respectful to your training partners, practice good hygiene, and listen to your instructors. We’ll go over everything on your first day.
What is the difference between BJJ and self-defense training?
BJJ focuses on grappling techniques, control, and submissions — great for sport and self-defense. Our self-defense classes are tailored to real-world situations, teaching you how to stay safe and get out of danger.
