From the reviews

My family and I were hoping to locate a martial arts gym that would provide encouragement with instilled discipline in their teachings. After COVID, my daughter & I made the jump to go and see Red River BJJ on May 10th. As soon as when we walked in, the staff was welcoming with open arms.

★★★★★ — David, Oct 2022

Definitely an amazing gym to go to. I asked if was able to train for a week since I’m here for a short TDY and was welcomed in. The professors are very knowledgeable, members are respectful and the culture of the gym is very positive and has a strong priority for safety.

★★★★★ — Anthony-Jay, Feb 2026

I was in town for work and had the chance to drop in here for about two weeks, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From day one, everyone was incredibly welcoming and made me feel like part of the community right away.

★★★★★ — Dylan, Mar 2026

Great environment with even greater Jiu jitsu. As an out-of-town black belt, I highly recommend this BJJ program for both newcomers and seasoned practitioners of the art.

New to muay thai? Start at Red River Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Red River 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 Red River 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.

Muay thai is a contact sport. Ease in, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
