Can Women benefit from the classes at the Marietta Combat Sports?
- Women will find that our classes give them distinct advantages over other martial arts, self-defense, or alternative fitness classes. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu’s reliance on leverage and technique over strength can help to overcome a larger & stronger opponent. During an assault, a woman could find herself forced to the ground. BJJ also emphasizes the use of escapes from bottom positions as well as the guard position. This position allows a subject trapped on the bottom during an assault, to control and incapacitate an attacker.
How are classes structured?
- At MCS, our structured classes begin with a warm up of stretching and calisthenics, then a series of related drills, followed by technique instruction, and finally a period of sparring (also known as "rolling").
What do I wear my first time (Intro Class) to class?
- The best thing to wear to your first class is a t-shirt and gym shorts. A mouthpiece is also recommended, although it's not required. It is also recommended that guys wear an athletic support.
