Never trained before?

Good. That's exactly who we built this for.

Walking into a martial arts gym for the first time is intimidating. We get it — you're picturing a room full of trained killers waiting to fold you in half. The reality? Most people who walk through our door have never thrown a punch or tapped anyone in their life.

Whether you're interested in BJJ, MMA, Striking or just want to get in and get fit, all of our weekday classes are beginner friendly.

“I'm not fit enough.”

Nobody is at first. You don't get fit and then train — you get fit by training. Go at your own pace.

“I've never done martial arts.”

Neither had most of our members — we all have to start somewhere.

“Will I get hurt?”

Beginners drill technique, not war. You control the intensity, and our coaches keep it safe.

“Am I too old?”

We've got members starting fresh in their 40s and 50s. Jiu jitsu is built on leverage, not muscle.

Flux Foundations — Your Introduction to BJJ and MMA

Two classes a week. A proper step-by-step curriculum. You train alongside other beginners — not thrown into advanced classes on day one. By the end you'll know the fundamentals, you'll be fitter, and you'll know whether this is your thing.

It's the single best way to start — and intakes are now open for Spring/Summer 2026.

Common Questions

Absolutely — most of our beginners haven't. Our Flux Foundations course is built from the ground up assuming zero experience. You'll learn alongside other first-timers, not get thrown into the deep end.
No. You get fit by training, not before. Go at your own pace — sit out when you need to, jump back in when you're ready. Within a few weeks you'll notice the difference.
Beginners drill technique under supervision — you're not sparring hard on day one. You control the intensity, your training partners look out for you, and our coaches keep things safe.
Just comfortable workout gear — shorts or trackies and a t-shirt or rashguard. No need to buy a gi or any equipment to start. Bring a water bottle and turn up a few minutes early.
Our kids programs start from around age 4, with dedicated youth and teens classes as they grow. For adults, there's no upper limit — we've got members starting fresh in their 40s and 50s.
No. We've got on-site strength & conditioning and cardio equipment, so you can get your fitness work done here too — everything under one roof.
