ONE HOUR
JUST FOR YOURSELF
When did you last have one hour that was completely yours?
No work. No emails.
No scrolling. No one asking you for anything.
Just one hour where you can switch off from everything else, learn something new, get moving and concentrate on what's right in front of you.
Maybe it's time you took an hour back.
Start with our New beginners Introduction to Martial Arts.

There's always something that needs doing and someone who needs your attention.
And somewhere along the way, doing something purely for yourself gets pushed further and further down the list.
So when did you last have one hour that was completely yours?
That's where Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is different.
When you step onto the mats, everything else can wait.
You're learning. Moving. Thinking. Solving problems. Working with the person in front of you.
It's pretty difficult to think about tomorrow's jobs when you're trying to work out how to escape from underneath somebody.
And that's rather the point.
THIS IS MY HOUR
For one hour I'm not thinking about work, emails, jobs that need doing or what tomorrow has in store.
I'm just here. Learning something. Getting better.
WHAT WILL YOU DO WITH YOUR HOUR?
Your first hour is Monday at 8pm. Your £9.99 introduction gives you five of them in your first week.
Complete beginners welcome. No previous martial arts experience needed.
Only 4 new-starter places available each Monday.
BUT I'VE NEVER DONE
ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE...
Perfect. We don't expect you to know
Jiu-Jitsu. That's our job.
Most people who walk through our doors for the first time
have never trained Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu before.
You don't need to be fit first.
You don't need to know any techniques.
You don't need to “get in shape” before you start.
You won't be expected to keep up with experienced students. You'll be shown
what to do, train with people who understand you're new, and learn at your own pace.
You just need to turn up. We'll take care of the rest.
YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE READY FOR BJJ.
YOU JUST HAVE TO BE READY TO TRY.
WHAT DOES YOUR £9.99 INTRODUCTION ACTUALLY INCLUDE?
5 SESSIONS. ONE EASY WAY TO FIND OUT IF BJJ IS FOR YOU.
You don't need to decide whether Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is going to become your new hobby before you've even stepped onto the mats.
That's why we've created our £9.99 Introduction.
Start with us on a Monday and you'll have the opportunity to experience 5 sessions across your first week, meet the team, learn some of the basics and discover what training at Lincoln BJJ is really like.
MONDAY • 8PM
Your Starting Point
Meet the team, get comfortable on the mats and learn the BJJ fundamentals with our experienced senior grades.
TUESDAY • 7PM & 8PM
CFA + Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Try our Combined Fighting Arts class at 7pm, then continue your introduction with Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at 8pm.
THURSDAY • 7PM & 8PM
CFA + Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Build on what you’ve learned with another CFA class at 7pm, followed by Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at 8pm.
YOU WON'T JUST BE THROWN IN AT THE DEEP END.
Your first week is about getting comfortable, learning how things work and meeting the people you'll be training with.
No experience needed. No pressure to keep up. No expectation that you'll know what you're doing.

Everyone you see training on this page started somewhere. Here's what some of our members have to say about training with us.
Martin
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Absolutely amazing place to train, I have been a member of the club for over a year now. Mark’s a fantastic instructor, really welcoming.
There’s no egos, as soon as you join you feel very welcome, you get the buzz and can’t stop talking about BJJ. Awesome way to lose weight as well, I’ve lost about 20 kilos since starting"
Eddie
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I began the beginner's course in 2023 ,and i love it !. Mark and the other coaches are friendly and take the time to explain techniques and why we are learning certain moves.
I leave the dojo feeling like i've achieved something for myself that evening.I would highly recommend anyone considering BJJ to choose here."
Jim
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Can't recommend this place highly enough. I met Mark as an absolute beginner with zero martial arts experience and was treated with the same respect that he gives his blue and purple belts.
Mark is an awesome teacher and this is a great place to learn. If you've ever even considered BJJ before get in touch with these guys and head down there to try it out, you won't regret it!."
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Still got a few questions?
That’s completely normal. Here are some of the things people often want to know before their first session.
What should I wear for my first session?
Wear comfortable sports clothing such as a T-shirt and shorts or tracksuit bottoms. If you don’t have a Gi yet, that’s absolutely fine. We can help you with what you need when you arrive.
Do I need to buy a Gi before I start?
No. You don’t need to buy a Gi before trying BJJ. We have loan Gis available, so you can get started without buying equipment straight away.
Do I need to be fit before starting?
Definitely not. You don’t get fit for BJJ, you can use BJJ to help you get fitter. Start where you are, train at your own pace and your fitness will develop as you train.
Am I too old to start Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu?
There’s no need to have started martial arts when you were younger. People come to BJJ at different ages, with different fitness levels and completely different backgrounds. You train at a level that’s appropriate for you.
I've never done any martial arts before. Does that matter?
Not at all. Complete beginners are exactly who this introduction is designed for. Nobody expects you to know the positions, techniques or terminology. We’ll show you what to do from the beginning.
Am I going to have to fight or spar on my first night?
You won’t simply be thrown in with an experienced student and expected to fight. Your first sessions are about learning, getting comfortable on the mats and understanding how BJJ works.
What happens after my £9.99 Introduction?
There’s no obligation to continue. If you enjoy the experience and decide Lincoln BJJ is for you, we’ll explain the different membership options and what you’ll need to continue training. You can then decide what works best for you.
Where is Lincoln BJJ?
We train at Strike Zone Martial Arts Centre in Lincoln. Once you book your introduction, you’ll receive the information you need for your first session.
YOU GIVE EVERYONE ELSE YOUR TIME.
MAYBE IT’S TIME YOU TOOK ONE HOUR BACK.
You don’t need to get fit first.
You don’t need any martial arts experience.
And you don’t need to know whether BJJ is for you yet.
That’s exactly what the £9.99 Introduction is for.
Come and experience Lincoln BJJ for yourself. Meet the team, get on the mats and discover what one hour away from everything else can feel like.
