Who it's for
People who like a quicker pace, wrestlers and judoka who want to add ground skills, and anyone training for submission grappling events. No-Gi Fundamentals on Tuesday and Friday evening is a good first class if you'd rather not wear a gi.
What a class looks like
Warm-up, 10 minutes.
Technique, 25 minutes, often starting from the feet.
Drilling, 15 minutes.
Live rounds, 20 to 30 minutes.
Leg locks are taught from blue belt on. White belts learn how to defend them first.
What to bring
A rash guard or fitted T-shirt, shorts without pockets or zips, and water. A mouth guard is a good idea once you start sparring.
