Other than that, if it’s a BJJ class for example, we’ll provide you the equipment (gi/kimono) for your first lesson, free of charge. Then, you will proceed to train!
Don’t worry too much about your first training experience. It will be an enjoyable one – our phenomenal instructors and your new training partners will make sure of it!
But, according to Frota Academy rules, if you train BJJ/grappling/MMA, then these martial arts gyms/schools/academies that you’re visiting cannot be in Zürich.
This is due to the fact that Frota Academy is heavily involved with developing its BJJ, grappling, and MMA students and competitors – and because there are a lot of classes taking place every week in the Academy in these martial arts.
In the Frota Academy, the white belts are promoted in November and the colored belts are promoted in December.
This sort of a belt promotion system allows Frota Academy instructors more time to access our students.
Therefore, during the months of November (white belts) and December (colored belts), Frota Academy instructors analyze our students’ progress, technique, and game – as well as their dojo etiquette. The students are then given additional advice and tasks on what they need to improve and how to do it.
Because of this, our students have a more personalized guidance towards the stripe/belt promotion, and improve faster than ever.
The reason behind is that we want the best for our students – so, we do not want them to compete at tournaments and competitions that are not worth their time.
Our instructors will talk to you about which tournaments/competitions are the best for your goals. Please feel free to ask them.
You may train and stay in the fitness area for as long as you wish to.
