Our Foundations Program is the starting point for new students at Lariat Jiu Jitsu.

This structured program is designed for adults with little or no jiu jitsu experience who want a clear, supportive introduction to the sport. Rather than jumping into unstructured sparring or the random move of the week, students learn through guided training focused on core positions, movement, and safety.

Training is organized around specific situations and goals, allowing students to build confidence and skill through focused repetition and controlled resistance. This approach helps new students understand why techniques work, not just how to copy them.

Foundations runs as a small-group program where students progress together over six weeks. The emphasis is on learning how to train, developing solid fundamentals, and feeling comfortable on the mats.

No prior experience is required.
