From the reviews
I've been training here for over 7 years and started completely out of shape and with no martial arts or grappling background. This is a great place to foster anyone coming off the couch or those coming from other gyms. The coaches are all accomplished and great at teaching to whatever level you're at.
This gym deserves all the stars that exist. We recently moved to Plano and we found a home at Cobra BJJ. It’s a beautiful community and we are so grateful we found it. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable probably the best out there and the people that come to the gym become like family.
I've been training there for 5 months now. I previously trained BJJ in NYC from 07-09. The instructors at this gym are so much better at teaching fundamentals of technique for both self defense and competition than I experienced in my last BJJ gym. The atmosphere is excellent. Lots of positivite, encouraging energy.
Cobra is my second family and I would go to battle with anyone at the gym! I live north of Highland Village and continue to train in Plano two to four times a week. I make this long trip because everyone feels like family, tough on you when training, but compassionate and fun to be around when we aren't.
New to muay thai? Start at Cobra Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Cobra Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the conditioning to you. Second, you won't be thrown into sparring — reputable gyms build fundamentals (stance, footwork, and the basic strikes of the "art of eight limbs") for weeks before any contact, and sparring stays optional. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first muay thai class at Cobra Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Nervous about walking into a muay thai gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics on pads and bags — not fighting. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: shorts or athletic wear and a t-shirt; you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and hand wraps if you have them — many gyms lend gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves, wraps, a mouthguard, and shin guards. Sparring is optional and comes later, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
