Sessions

The training schedule includes sessions for different levels and goals. Here's a brief look at what each session name means.

Technique
Coached technique sessions with rotating themes. Open to anyone who has completed the beginner course, regardless of level.
Sparring
Sparring brings the techniques you've learned into real situations: you grapple more freely with a training partner, and find out what works in your game and what still needs work. Participation requires the beginner course or equivalent grappling experience.
Fundamentals
Focuses on fundamental techniques and key positions that form the foundation of the sport. Open to all levels, whether you're just starting out or an experienced practitioner.
Competition team
Training for competitors and people interested in competing. Sessions focus on competition scenarios and developing each athlete's personal techniques.
Stand-up grappling
Stand-up sessions focus on takedowns, throws, and wrestling from standing under no-gi rules. Unlike freestyle wrestling, no-gi also allows chokes and other submissions, which shapes the techniques and tactics of the standing game.
Morning and day sessions
Morning and day sessions typically include a small amount of sparring, with the main focus on practicing new techniques and ideas. The smaller group size lets coaches adapt the session to the group's needs.
Q&A
A coach-led Q&A on technique and training before Open Mat. A good moment to revisit techniques covered during the week.
Open mat
During open mat you can review techniques, spar, or do mobility and recovery work on your own. People from other gyms are welcome at the Focus Open Mat too.
