Instruction.
Every program at Hierarchy is built around mutual respect and a genuine sense of community. Whether you're stepping on the mats for the first time or returning after years away, you'll find an environment that's inclusive, supportive, and worth showing up for. To help us maintain that standard, we ask all students and visitors to review our Academy Code of Conduct.
Character and coordination start here. Through a high-energy curriculum, children develop fundamental movement, listening skills, and confidence. We work with families to maintain a safe and productive environment where every child feels they have a place on the team. This program introduces the basics of the sport in a way that is fun, engaging, and supportive.
As students grow, the curriculum shifts toward individual ownership of their progress. This program introduces the mental and technical aspects of the sport, helping students navigate challenges with technical precision. Students have the opportunity to take on more responsibility within the group as they develop their skills and build a foundation for long-term growth.
Fundamentals are the core of Jiu Jitsu. This class covers the essential principles of the art: guard playing, weight distribution, movement, defenses, and attacks. We focus on building a bulletproof technical foundation first—style and creativity follow once the core mechanics are mastered. The No-Gi program is included, offering a dynamic perspective on your training without the traditional uniform.
A flexible option for those who prefer to train without a monthly commitment. Each card covers 10 classes and is valid for 90 days from the date of first use. Gi and No-Gi classes are included. Adult punch cards include access to Open Mat sessions. Punch cards are non-refundable and cannot be shared between students.
Open Mat is unstructured training time free and open to all members regardless of program. It's a chance to drill techniques, work specific positions, or get extra time on the mats at your own pace. Note that Open Mat is not structured or coached — most participants are intermediate to advanced practitioners. Beginners are encouraged to build their foundation in regular classes before attending.

During our initial launch phase, classes for Kids (4–8) and Youth (9–15) will be grouped together. This allows for a collaborative training environment across all youth levels as we establish the academy. These groups will transition into dedicated, separate time slots as our student base expands.
