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?

No, we do not specifically train to fight in the mixed martial arts arena.  However, Jujitsu is uniquely suited to the mixed
martial arts because of its universal training methods.  If you would like to fight in the mixed martial arts, we will support
you and help you as much as we can within the bounds of the dojo.  If you are looking for a specific trainer however, we
would ask that you check out one of the schools that specializes in that style of training.

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.
