| Frequently Asked Questions: |
1. How long will it take to get a black belt?
The time it takes to get a Black Belt varies extensively from student to student. The more time and effort you put into the
art, the faster you will progress, but time is entirely based on the individual student. We do not believe in setting a time
frame for progression in the art. However, a conservative estimate would be three to five years of study.
2. Do I need to be in good shape to do Jujitsu?
Though being healthy and good shape is always beneficial, it is not essential to begin studying Jujitsu. Students of every
physical fitness level have studied the art of Jujitsu. Each of those students has progressed well through the art, often
shedding pounds and improving their health along the way.
3. I want to fight in the cage (Mixed Martial Arts), will you train me for that?
Yes!! DMA of Sioux Falls began training students in Mixed Martial Arts beginning in June of 2001. Our Mixed Martial
Arts program is available to students age 14 and above that meet certain requirements. For full details please see our MMA
page.
4. Do I need any special equipment?
To start with, there is no special equipment needed. Just a comfortable pair of sweats and a t-shirt. Eventually though,
you will be asked to purchase a gi (uniform) and sparring gear.
5. Do you teach self defense seminars?
Yes we do! Please check our Self Defense link for more information.
