Common Questions

Q.When does billing start?
Billing begins on the day you enroll. Your first week is a free trial — you will not be charged until you decide to become a member. After that, tuition is due on the same date each month.
Q.Can I pause my membership?
Yes. Members can request a hold of up to 30 days per year for travel, injury, or other circumstances. Contact us directly and we'll take care of it with no hassle.
Q.What happens if I cancel a contract early?
6-Month and 12-Month agreements have an early termination fee equal to two months of tuition. Month-to-Month members may cancel at any time with 30 days written notice — no penalty.
Q.Do family members need to train the same program?
No. Family members under a single plan can each attend different programs. For example, one member can train Adult BJJ while another attends Kids BJJ — all under one family membership.
Q.How does the MMA add-on work?
The Friday Night MMA class is available to any active BJJ member aged 15 and up for an additional $35/month per member. It is billed alongside your regular tuition. You can add or remove it at any time by contacting us. See the MMA program page for gear requirements and class details.
Q.Are private lessons included?
Private lessons are separate from membership tuition and are available to both members and non-members. Members receive priority scheduling and preferred pricing. See our Private Lessons page for details.
