BEGINNER PROGRAM

The DC Jiu Jitsu Beginner Program is designed specifically for people who are completely new to Jiu Jitsu, NOGI with little to no previous experience in the grappling arts.

Our goal is simple, give beginners the skills, knowledge and confidence they need to become comfortable on the mat and build a strong foundation in Jiu Jitsu.

Building good habits from white to blue belt in Jiu Jitsu is one of the most critical aspects of long-term success and injury free progression in the art. The habits you form as a white belt often define your entire foundation, and they're much harder to change once they’re ingrained. this is why it is critical for us as beginner to be guided in the right direction and build not only the technical and conceptual understanding but he philosophical and cultural understanding of the art.

STRONG FOUNDATION

We believe that great Jiu Jitsu starts with a strong foundation. Instead of overwhelming beginners with hundreds of techniques, we focus on teaching concepts and principles that help students understand why Jiu Jitsu works.
Our goal isn't simply to teach you a technique and expect you to remember a sequence of steps.

We teach students principles they can apply in different situations. Once you understand the concept, you can begin to solve problems for yourself.
