Our structured beginner programme is designed for adults with little or no Jiu-Jitsu experience — giving you the skills, confidence and understanding to start properly.
You don't need experience. You don't need to know the rules. And you definitely don't need to be in great shape before you walk through the door.
Curated Start is designed to teach you Jiu-Jitsu from the beginning, step by step, alongside people who are learning too.


CONFIDENCESTRUCTURE
A clear beginner pathway, so you understand what you're learning and why.
COACHING
Step-by-step instruction with coaches there to help when you're unsure.
FITNESS
Build strength, movement and fitness through training rather than needing them before you start.
COMMUNITY
Learn alongside good people in an environment without ego or intimidation.
Learn first. Then build from there.
You'll learn the fundamental positions, movements and concepts of Jiu-Jitsu in a structured environment designed specifically for newer students.
Rather than being thrown into the deep end, each session builds your understanding and gives you time to practise what you've learned.
LEARN · PRACTISE · UNDERSTAND · PROGRESS



Almost everyone feels apprehensive before their first Jiu-Jitsu class. You won't know the movements, the terminology or what you're supposed to do yet.
That's exactly why Curated Start exists. We'll show you around, introduce you properly and guide you through your training from the beginning.
