If you’re curious about Jiu Jitsu but feel totally intimidated by the sport, I can’t recommend Coach Joe and Meta Martial Arts enough. I’ve been to some Jiu Jitsu gyms where everyone walks around puffed up and ready to dominate like they’re training for the octagon next week. (At one of those gyms I actually left with a black eye and bruised rib during my trial week!) At Meta Martial Arts, Coach Joe was very patient with my inexperience. Even the other students had a great vibe to them, immediately making me feel welcomed. I have to say, Jiu Jitsu is definitely the best work out of my life. You leave somehow feeling completely drained of energy, but totally energized. I highly recommend giving Meta Martial Arts a try. If you’ve ever wanted to try the sport, this is the best place to get started and a great way to join a community of great people that are passionate and welcoming.
