What We Teach

Three Programs. One Philosophy. Built for people who are serious about learning Jiu Jitsu the right way.

Adult Jiu Jitsu

Every class follows a deliberate structure. We open with 15 to 20 minutes of warm-up drills, movements that prepare the body and reinforce the fundamentals. Then we move into technique, two per session, always taught in a chain, so every move connects to the next. Nothing is isolated. Nothing is random.

The final 30 minutes are dedicated to rolling. Each round is 6 minutes. Partners rotate. You will be challenged, but always in a controlled, respectful environment.

We teach both Gi and No-Gi. Whether you have never trained before or you are coming in with some experience, you will find your place here.

All levels · Gi and No-Gi · 3 times per week · 1.5 to 2 hours per class

Ages 6 to 14 · Once a week · 1 hour per class

Kids classes are structured, focused, and age-appropriate. In one hour, children develop body awareness, discipline, and confidence — all while learning real jiu-jitsu fundamentals in a safe environment.

We teach children the same way we teach adults — with clarity, patience, and purpose. No shortcuts. No chaos. Just steady, structured learning that builds something real.

Most of our kids students have never trained before. They don't need to. They just need to show up.

Private Lessons

One-on-one · Your schedule · Your focus

In a group class, you follow the program. In a private lesson, the program follows you.

Private lessons are designed to accelerate your learning. You choose what you want to work on. A specific position, a technique you can't get right, a concept you want to understand more deeply. The entire session is built around you.

Private lessons are open to all levels. Whether you want to start Jiu Jitsu before joining a group class or you are an experienced student looking to sharpen something specific, a private lesson with Professor Gomes is the fastest path forward.

A Clear Path Forward.

At Gomes Jiu-Jitsu, progression is never arbitrary. Every belt, from white to black, follows a structured, documented system built on chains of techniques that connect and build on each other.

You always know where you are, what you are working toward, and why. No guessing. No politics. Just clear, honest progress.

Every stripe is earned. Every grading is cumulative. And at every level, you learn not just what to do, but when, why, and how to teach it to someone else.

White belt learns what.

Black belt learns when not to.
