Private
Lessons

Accelerate Your Development

While Bernardo Pitel BJJ is known for the quality of group classes, some people prefer to start or complement their training with private lessons. Private classes enable the instructor to teach lessons in an order that can optimize learning and to adapt techniques to suit an individual’s strengths and weaknesses. 

Benefits of Private Lessons

• Linear Learning – The order in which you learn the techniques greatly affects the time it takes you to master the art. In private lessons, your instructor will present the techniques in a carefully pre-determined sequence that will most efficiently develop your reflexes and build your confidence.
• Reach Mastery Faster – The only way to reduce the amount of time it takes to master Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is to set specific training/technical goals in each phase of the journey based on your strengths and weaknesses. Private training enables your instructor to help you assess your ability and develop a personalized plan to take you efficiently to the next level!
• Personal Progress Pacing – Due to the pace of group instruction, it’s possible to miss technical details during the presentation. In private lessons, we can pace the instruction according to your skills and needs, so you will never feel confused or overwhelmed.
• Instant Feedback – In a group class, it’s simply impossible for the instructor to focus totally on one student, so you must rely on your training partners to help you learn the techniques. In private lessons, your instructor is your partner for every technique, so they can physically feel all of your movements and provide instant feedback on every detail.
• Discover Your “Game” – While Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is the one martial art that anyone can learn, many techniques still require some modification to fit the abilities of each student. In private lessons, your instructor will help you discover your “game” – the specific style of jiu-jitsu that best suits you – so that you can maximize your proficiency based on your age, weight, height, and athletic abilities (or lack thereof).
