it all figured out.

A LITTLE LESS UNKNOWN
Before you begin.
Does the student need experience?
No experience is needed to explore a program. Tell the team it’s a first class so they can explain the fundamentals and help with a suitable starting point.
What if my child is shy or easily distracted?
Share that with the coaches. The kids and youth pathways emphasize confidence, listening, focus, and learning alongside others. Ask the team how they help new students settle in.
What about ages outside these groups or a whole family?
Complete the finder separately for each student. For a child under 3, a teen between youth and adult classes, or any uncertainty about placement, contact the team directly for guidance.
Is a recommendation a class reservation?
It’s a suggested starting point. Contact The Lab BJJ to confirm placement, the latest schedule, pricing, and any trial details. This finder does not reserve a spot.
