At Legion our mission is to provide you or your child with world-class jiu jitsu instruction.
We want to do so in an environment that’s welcoming for those who are hardened warriors and those that are trying jiu jitsu for the first time. Our members come from all walks of life, from ages of 4 to 65+.
We realize that starting jiu jitsu as a complete beginner can be daunting. That’s why we pioneered our 5-Week Beginner Course, which comes with a guarantee that you will start alongside other beginners.
Fantastic question, thanks for asking! Here is a comparison:
Sign up fees are a completely made up way some academies try to get “leverage” over their clients. Normally they’re magically waived at some point in the conversation.
There are no signup fees at Legion.
We’re big believers in using the medium of video to advance jiu jitsu learning. Even with perfect focus and memory, you can only learn so much on the mats. That’s why we include access to countless hours of online courses with all adult memberships. Valued at over $500, but included for free. (Thanks to JiuJitsuX.com)
Less stress about uniforms means more focus on quality training.
