Classes
Adult Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Teen Rhinos Jiu-Jitsu
Ages 11–15
All levels are welcome in our Teen Jiu Jitsu class — no experience needed! Following a fun, structured curriculum developed by Ray and Rachel Casias, every month students focus on a new position, learning different techniques and options that build a strong foundation in Jiu Jitsu.
Your teen will be surrounded by great role models and top-notch instruction in a safe, friendly environment. Classes include warm-ups, technique, and live rolling (practice matches), giving students a great workout while building real skills.
Two nights a week students will wear a uniform called a Gi, and don’t worry — we’ve got extras to borrow until you’re ready to grab your own!
The other two nights are no-gi and is a great way to complement your Gi training. You’ll follow the same curriculum as the Gi program, but with modifications tailored to the No-Gi ruleset and style.
To participate, you’ll need a tight-fitting shirt or rashguard and shorts without pockets for safety.
This program is perfect for teens looking to build confidence, stay active, and be part of something awesome. Everyone starts somewhere — just bring a great attitude and a willingness to learn. Try a class today and see what Jiu Jitsu is all about!
Mini Rhinos Jiu-Jitsu
Ages 5–10
The heart of Tennessee Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Academy is our Kids Jiu Jitsu program, overseen and taught by Black Belt Coach Clint Natschke . There’s nothing else like the Lil Rhinos. Your child will be welcomed with open arms as we take pride in helping raise strong, confident warriors.
Our kids are the future — and if we don’t guide them well, we’re doing them a disservice.
Our program instills confidence, discipline, respect, integrity, and a lifelong skill set that will serve your child both on and off the mat.
In Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, your child will learn wrestling, judo, and BJJ — all of which develop the ability to defend themselves.
What is BJJ? It’s a ground-based fighting system that uses leverage and technique — not striking — to subdue larger opponents.Kids will learn both the self-defense and sport aspects of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
Muay Thai
Adults and serious teens (at the coaches discretion)
Our Muay Thai program at TBJJA Hohenwald is offered every Friday evenings and Saturday mornings. Classes are led by Coach Dan Champ, who brings years of experience and a passion for teaching this powerful striking art.
Known as “The Art of Eight Limbs,” Muay Thai combines punches, kicks, elbows, and knees into one dynamic and effective fighting style. In each class, you’ll train technique, movement, pad work, and light sparring in a welcoming, high-energy environment.
Whether you’re training for fitness or to compete, Muay Thai delivers a full-body workout and sharpens both body and mind.
To participate, you’ll need 16oz boxing gloves, hand wraps, shin guards, and a mouthpiece.
