Before You Sign Up

Common questions about Teen and Adult Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Clovis, CA.

Can adult beginners start BJJ in Clovis?

Yes. BJJ at Guido's in Clovis is one of the most beginner-friendly martial arts for adults. Most of our students started with zero prior experience. Instructors meet you exactly where you are.

Is BJJ safe to train regularly?

BJJ has one of the lowest injury rates of any martial art. No strikes to the face, no knockouts. Live rolling is introduced progressively when you are ready. Most adults train for years without significant wear.

I am not in great shape. Can I do this?

Yes. Conditioning improves as a result of consistent training. You do not need to be in shape to start. BJJ is technique and leverage, not size and strength.

I am a woman. Will I feel out of place in the BJJ room?

No. Teen and Adult BJJ at our Clovis dojo trains women alongside men in every class. Several of our certified instructors are women. If you want women-specific training, see our Women's Self-Defense program as a complement.

How long are the classes?

Teen and Adult BJJ classes run one hour, up to five days a week. Two to three classes a week is the right rhythm for real progress.

Do I need a gi on day one?

No. Athletic clothes work for the trial. If you continue, we will walk you through the gi sizing and what to buy.

What is the trial?

One week of classes for $59. Free Guido's t-shirt included.
