★★★★★ — Eden, Mar 2026

I’ve been training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for about six years now, with experience training under Alliance in Idaho and Washington, Mountain Home Jiu-Jitsu, and even teaching and competing overseas in Kuwait.

Our son has been going to Vital Brothers Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy since Thanksgiving and we have been super impressed. Professor JP and the other coaches encourage the kids and have help my son be more confident. My son went to his first competition a few months after starting.

★★★★★ — Tracey, Jun 2026

This gym is legit y'all. We were in mountain home for the holidays and contacted JP about cross training while in town. Let me just say he is a FANTASTIC coach. He genuinely cares about his students, teaches SOLID BJJ techniques and was very welcoming. We even had the honor of watching his team compete in Boise.

Your first muay thai class at VITAL BROTHERS BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU ACADEMY

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.
