From the reviews
Been looking for a new home since I arrived in Tulsa. This place has quickly become that place. The instructors are amazing. Lots of knowledge on the mats and a wide variety of training partners. Definitely recommend this place!
Excellent kids program (ages 4 and up). Heavy focus on respect, discipline, and fundamentals. Great place to learn self-defense basics or prep for competition. Very welcoming and safe environment for women (almost 1:1 ration female to male).
This place is amazing. My 8yr old started his jiu-jitsu journey here when he was 4 years old. We tried multiple free trial classes at other gyms around town and no where came close to Jedi and how Professor Jamie Mickle connects with the kids. I now have had both my boys training at Jedi for years.
I could not imagine a better instructor for kids than Mr. Jamie. Anywhere. The kids would not want to go if it weren't for him. They adore him. He is a mix of kind, caring, and tough that every child needs. I don’t know how he does it day after day with positive energy and joy, except that he must love what he does.
New to judo? Start at Jedi Jiu-Jitsu
Jedi Jiu-Jitsu comes up as a beginner-friendly dojo, going by their listing and members’ reviews. If you've never stepped on a mat, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and sensei scale the intensity to you. Second, you'll start by learning to fall safely (ukemi) — reputable dojos build fundamentals (breakfalls, grips, a first throw and some groundwork) for weeks, live randori eases in gradually, and tapping early keeps everyone safe. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out, and remember to bow in and show respect (rei). Most dojos are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first judo class at Jedi Jiu-Jitsu
Nervous about walking into a judo dojo for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good sensei expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, learning to fall safely (ukemi), then drilling a throw or two and some groundwork with a partner — not hard randori. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a judogi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many dojos lend a loaner judogi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own judogi. Live randori eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the sensei. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
