Which one sounds like you?
I've never trained
Start in Fundamentals after a private lesson with a coach. Most of the room started here.
See the beginner courseI've trained before
Hard rounds in All Levels and Advanced, 30+ classes a week, showers after.

Grounders, ages 4–13, Bully Shield in every class. Watch from the lobby first.

30 days. $100. Then decide.
2 classes a week for 30 days, a rashguard that's yours to keep, and, if you've never trained, a private lesson before your first class. Make all 8 classes and the $100 comes back as credit on month 1. No refunds, nothing to refund.

Good rolls. Good vibes.
That's the mission line. It's also what people write in the reviews without being asked.
"A no nonsense, no pressure, supportive environment… but they also have serious competitive-level students."

Two training partners mid-drill, one of them laughing, neither taking themselves too seriously.
The water fountain huddle after class: 5 people, sweaty, still arguing about the last round.
Sunday open mat from a high corner: 20 pairs rolling, the whole room in one frame.Still reading? That's a good sign.
The people who take longest to decide usually stay the longest. The First 30: 30 days, $100, the rashguard is yours either way, and if you make all 8 classes it pays for itself.

| Bought separately | $504 | |
| The First 30 | $100 | |
$504 is what these cost bought separately. The First 30 is $100 because the goal is the 30 days, not the sale. It's 2 classes a week on purpose: that's the pace a beginner can keep, and keeping it is what the first 30 days are for.
Make all 8 classes and it pays for itself.
The First 30 is 2 classes a week, 8 in 30 days. Make all 8 and if you continue, the $100 you paid is credited to your first month of membership: $120 instead of $220. 2 a week is the pace a beginner can actually keep for a month, so the target isn't a hoop, it's the point.
There is no refund, and there is nothing to refund. If day 30 comes and this isn't for you, you keep the rashguard, you keep the guide, you keep the calendar, and you don't come back. No exit call, no fee, no "let's talk about why." We'd rather you leave with a rashguard than stay on a contract. The only way to get the $100 back is to make all 8 classes, and at that point most people don't want it back.
