My six year old loves training at Lauzon MMA. Matt and all of the other coaches are excellent with the kids. He is learning about fitness, developing his balance, agility, and flexibility, and having an all-around great time.

Lauzon's MMA is an incredible gym with spectacular instructors that are able to cater to all skill levels. They offer kids classes and women's only classes in addition to their regular classes, and I've found that everyone in the gym is very welcoming no matter which class you try. I must admit I'm addicted to the place now because the workouts leave me feeling so energized. Of course it doesn't hurt that I saw significant changes in my body after only a few weeks and now a year later I'm stronger and happier then ever. If you're wondering if this is the gym for you, my advice would be to give it a try. I guarantee you will be happy you did.

I've been going for 2 weeks and it has been the best decision I've made in a long time. The environment is very friendly and welcoming. Joe is an amazing teacher and even the more seasoned students are there to help you along the way. If you're thinking about joining just do it!

Lauzon's is an awesome gym. As a woman coming into BJJ brand new, I was pretty nervous. But all the guys here are really cool and understanding, and full of helpful tips. Being a girl has never felt like a factor, just being new and learning. Once you become a regular you fall into a nice flow. You never have to worry about asking questions. 110% recommend to anyone, from future fighters to women looking to stay fit.

FAQs
No. Adult classes are 60 minutes and built for people who have never trained. Wear shorts and a T-shirt to your first class, no gi needed, and your free intro appointment ends with a short lesson on the mat so you are not walking into your first class cold.
Yes. Jiu-jitsu is built on leverage and technique rather than size, which is why it works against someone bigger and stronger than you. That is the reason smaller people stick with it.
Shorts and a T-shirt are all you need to start, and there are locker rooms to change in. If you keep training in the gi, a gi is what you will want next. Ask a coach before you buy anything.
An hour of jiu-jitsu is a full-body workout and you will sweat through it. Combined with eating sensibly, that is what moves the needle. It is a lot easier to keep doing than a treadmill.
No. Beginner classes are technique and drilling, and you work up to controlled sparring when you are ready. Nothing is mandatory.
