Jiu-Jitsu That Fits A Class Schedule
The Sweat Lab is a full combat gym in downtown Gibsonville, about two miles from campus. Adult No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu with Coach Chris runs Wednesday and Friday evenings at 6:45 PM.
Jiu-jitsu is grappling: no punches or kicks, just positions, escapes and holds that end in a tap. No-gi means you wear normal athletic clothes, so there is no uniform to buy. Beginners start in the same class, and no experience is needed.
Want more? The same membership covers MMA near Elon, boxing and Muay Thai. The full program is on the No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu page.

I have never grappled. Is that OK?
Yes. The Wednesday and Friday class is where beginners start.
What do I wear?
A t-shirt or rash guard and shorts with no zippers or pockets, plus water. Trim your nails. A mouthguard is a good idea if you own one.
