Welcome to Rapadura Jiu-Jitsu!

Let’s Get Started 

​

Congratulations!
Whether you’re starting a brand-new adventure or returning to something you’ve missed, we’re so excited to have you join our Rapadura family. You’re taking the first step on a journey that builds confidence, strength, and resilience—on and off the mat.

To help you get ready for your first class, here are a few quick reminders and tips:

​

🥋 What to Know Before Class

• Arrive Early: Please plan to arrive 15 minutes before class if you’ll be borrowing a loaner gi. This helps us get you fitted and ready to start on time.

• Stay on Schedule: Classes begin promptly — we value everyone’s time and flow.

• Dress Comfortably: Wear comfortable clothing that fits well under a gi (like fitted workout wear).

• Tie Your Hair Up: For safety and hygiene, please keep long hair tied back securely.

• Trim Nails: Fingernails and toenails should be kept short to protect your training partners.

• Stay Hydrated: You’re welcome to bring your own water bottle. We do not have a water fountain, but beverages are available for purchase on site.

• Jewelry Policy: it is preferd that you leave all jewelry at home, but if you forget please note

*no jewelry on the mat
