    I've been training at Memento Combat Sports since early June, and I'm consistently impressed. The atmosphere and culture here are outstanding; everyone is friendly and dedicated to helping each other improve. The coaches are phenomenal-they don't just show techniques, they really focus on the small details and "nuggets" that help you elevate your game. I've already seen a huge improvement in my skills in just a few months. Whether you're into Jiu-Jitsu, MMA, or kickboxing, this gym is a gem. The emphasis on wrestling is a huge plus and makes the training incredibly well-rounded.

    It’s not always common to find a Jiu jitsu instructor who is both a high level athlete, and a high level instructor, but Joseph Watson easily fills both of these rolls. If you’re looking for a place to call home and learn, or to simply stop in on your travels and get some good high level training in, in a safe and healthy environment, Memento is definitely that place.

Have Questions About Jiu Jitsu Classes at Memento Combat Sports?

Here are some frequently asked questions. If you still have questions about the program, please click the button below to contact one of our coaches.

Contact us
  • Do I need experience to start jiu jitsu?

    Absolutely not. Most of the new students that enroll in our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu program have zero experience. All new students will begin their Jiu Jitsu journey learning the most fundamental (and most important) aspects of the sport. In addition to learning the basic elements of Jiu Jitsu with other beginners, our classes are taught at a moderate pace so that you can gradually improve your conditioning as you go. If you feel like you’re out-of-shape and are intimidated about the thought of exercising in front of others, don’t worry, we will never push someone beyond their comfort zone.

  • What kind of uniform will I need?

    Half of our Jiu-Jitsu classes are conducted in the Gi (the traditional uniform consisting of a jacket, pants, and a belt that communicates your rank). The other half of our classes are conducted in “No Gi” attire, where you will wear a rash guard and a pair of  No Gi shorts or No Gi Pants (also known as spats) that do not have pockets. Gi and No Gi classes on the schedule will be marked so you will know what attire to wear to class.

  • Can I Get Hurt Training Jiu Jitsu?

    Yes, of course you can. Like any sport or physical activity, there is always a chance of getting banged up or injured. Creating a safe training environment is one of Memento Combat Sports’ Core Values, and we are proud of our very low injury rate. We take every precaution to ensure our students leave class feeling AWESOME, not hurt!

  • Do I Have to sign a contract?

    Every member of Memento Combat Sports is on an active membership, but the length of your agreement is entirely up to you. We offer membership agreements that range from a year paid in full to month-to-month. As long as you’re excited about training with us and ready to make some awesome changes in your life, we can craft your membership agreement to suit your individual needs.

  • What can I expect in my first class?

    During your first class you will be welcomed and included in the class just like you’ve been a member for years. You will receive one on one instruction from our knowledgeable instructors and you will work in with one or more of our students to help nurture and develop the basic foundations of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
