Everything You're
Wondering

It’s the norm. Most people who walk through our doors have zero experience — that’s exactly who the Foundations Course was built for. You’ll learn from step one at a pace designed for beginners, with training partners who remember being new.

Book through the site, show up a few minutes early, and take a real class, not a sales pitch. The $29 is applied to your Foundations enrollment. Afterward, if you loved it, we’ll walk you through the Foundations Course and membership. No hard sell.

The required first program for every new student: six weeks of fundamentals taught properly, with your gi included. The course is $299 for adults and $249 for kids. A $99 reservation holds your seat and is applied to the course total. Groups are capped at 20 seats, and the next one starts Monday, November 2. Complete Foundations and you’ll move straight into full membership. Details at bttbridgewater.com/foundations.

Comfortable athletic clothes (t-shirt and shorts or leggings) and a water bottle. No gi needed for your intro class — if you try a Gi class, we’ll set you up with a loaner.

No. You get in shape by training — nobody arrives ready. Classes scale to your level, and you control your own pace. Showing up is the only requirement.

Kids classes run in three groups: ages 3-5, 6-9, and 10-14. Teens 15 and up train in adult classes, and 14-year-olds may join them with instructor approval. Not sure where your child fits? Call or text us at 774-619-8373 and we’ll point you to the right class.

Jiu-Jitsu is a contact sport and carries inherent risk, like any sport — we won’t pretend otherwise. What we control is the environment: qualified instruction, mats cleaned daily, beginners kept out of live sparring until they’re ready, and a strict no-ego culture. Tapping early and training smart are taught from day one.

Memberships are month to month. No initiation fees, no hidden charges.

No. Live training is introduced gradually and only when you’re ready. Beginners drill technique with cooperative partners first — nobody is thrown into the deep end.

We’re inside the Bridgewater Fitness building at 620 Bedford Street. Park in the main lot and use the main entrance, you’ll see us.

As young as 3. Our youngest class is ages 3-5, then 6-9 and 10-14, so every child trains with true peers. Teens 15 and up train in adult classes, and 14-year-olds may join them with instructor approval.

Yes, when it’s taught properly. Kids classes are controlled partner work under close instructor supervision: no striking, no live sparring until a child is ready, mats cleaned and disinfected daily, and parents can watch from the lobby any time. Discipline and respect are built into every class.

Jiu-Jitsu is a grappling art. Kids learn to control a situation, escape bad positions, and stay safe without punching or kicking, which makes it one of the most practical anti-bullying skills there is. Because there is no striking, it can be practiced at full effort with a partner in every class. Karate and taekwondo are striking arts with a different focus. Not sure which fits your child? Book a $29 intro class and watch a real class.
