Frequently asked questions.
What should I expect when I arrive for the first time?
We’ll ask you to scan our questionnaire and waiver via QR code, and take your medical history. You will also be required to download our booking app. Please arrive at least 10 minutes before the sessions to make sure you’re ready to start the class on time. Shoes should be worn at all times when not on the mats; this is to maintain hygiene and prevent skin infections. Due to insurance requirements no jewellery can be worn during training sessions.
What do I bring to my first session?
For your first class you should bring a tight-fitting t-shirt or rash guard, and some leggings/shorts. For your first class you won’t need a Gi, but if you choose to sign up we will be happy to recommend some great brands. You should also bring a water bottle and all jewellery will need to be removed before the session.
I’m a complete beginner, what will my first class be like?
We will start with a short warm-up, followed by some technique and drills. Towards the end of the class, we will do some live training; we’ll show you what this means! You can opt to watch this part of the session, but most people find this the funnest part!
What does Fundamentals and All Levels mean?
Fundamentals cover core concepts and principles that underpin BJJ, including basic escapes, positions and submissions. All levels is open to higher levels as well as beginners, but is still open to newbees.
What happens to my membership if I get injured?
We can freeze your account and you are welcome to come watch classes during your recovery.
Can I freeze my account?
Yes for a minimum of 1 month - and then we can only freeze whole months. i.e. if you are away for 6 weeks, we can’t freeze 6 weeks, we can freeze 1 month or 2 months.
Do I have to book?
Yes via the MAAT App. If you don’t book for a session you will not be allowed admittance until you have booked via the app. Our terms and conditions outline the use of this app.
How do I book a taster session?
