What to Expect at Your First Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Class in Lancaster, PA

Walking into a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gym for the first time can feel intimidating. At PowerLevel Fitness in Lancaster, PA, we work hard to make your first class welcoming, structured, and fun. Here is exactly what to expect.

Before class

Wear comfortable athletic clothing with no zippers or pockets. A t-shirt and shorts or leggings are perfect for your first No-Gi class. Bring water, and arrive about 10 minutes early so we can introduce ourselves and show you around the facility.

During class

Every class starts with a warm-up, followed by technique instruction where the coach demonstrates a position or movement step by step. You will then practice the technique with a partner at your own pace. Beginners are never thrown into hard sparring on day one.

After class

Expect to be tired in muscles you did not know you had. Most people leave their first class smiling and already planning their next visit. If you want to try it yourself, claim a free class or free 1-on-1 consultation and come see what training at PowerLevel is all about.
