I started at Agoge because I wanted to be trained by the best coaches in the area. I’ve stayed here because everyone here has become family. I couldn’t recommend them enough! 🤙

When I say Agoge Combatives and BJJ were a game changer for me, I mean that quite literally. I showed up in 2020 at one of the low points in my life when I decided to give jiu-jitsu a try at the recommendation of a friend. My life hasn't been the same since that 5:30am BJJ class, it flipped the script.

I was in town for the week and decided to drop in for a few of the morning sessions. Grayson (the morning BJJ instructor) was fantastic with his instruction of useful techniques and the facility is incredible. The group of guys I encountered were dedicated, welcoming, and fun to roll with. If I find myself in Chattanooga again, I will be sure to come in again.

Agoge is a great gym for anyone interested in martial arts.
I've been coming here for over a year now, and there's a great mix of experience levels to train with, from beginner to black belt. The selling point that got me was the huge variety of classes and training times to accommodate my busy schedule.

Amazing place to train and stellar community. Coming in as a beginner to any martial arts training it has not only been phenomenal for myself but for my child. Whether you have young children starting school, want to seriously compete, or just want to learn something new, this is the spot.

Frequently Asked Questions
Check out the most frequently asked questions about Agoge Combatives.
Still haven't found the answer?
Contact UsDo I need to be in shape to start classes?
No. Most of our students start with little to no martial arts or fitness experience. Our classes are designed to help you build strength, endurance, and confidence at your own pace. You’ll improve your fitness naturally through consistent training, and our instructors will guide you every step of the way.
Are your classes beginner-friendly?
Yes. Beginners are welcome in every class. We have classes to teach fundamentals that we teach in a structured, safe environment. Whether your goal is self-defense, fitness, or competition, we make sure you feel comfortable and supported from day one.
What should I bring to my first class?
Just bring:
-
Comfortable athletic clothing
-
Water
-
A positive attitude
- A well formed mouth guard
We’ll provide guidance on any gear you may need after and have all the gear you'll need to begin. Many students start with basic workout clothes and upgrade gear later if they decide to continue training.
Is martial arts safe?
Safety is our top priority. Our experienced instructors teach proper technique, control, and awareness to ensure a safe training environment. Classes are supervised at all times, and students train at an appropriate pace based on their experience level. Please remember though, this is combat sports. We take great care to ensure safety. But it is also your responsibility to know when to stop or ask for help.
Do you offer kids classes?
Yes. Our kids program focuses on confidence, discipline, respect, and self-defense. Your children learn valuable life skills while improving coordination, focus, and physical fitness in a positive and supportive environment.
How often should I train?
Most students train 2–4 times per week, but you can start with whatever fits your schedule. Even training once or twice per week can produce noticeable improvements in fitness, confidence, and skill.
How do I get started?
The best way to start is with our 7-Day Free Trial. This allows you to experience our classes, meet our instructors, and see if Agoge Combatives is the right fit for you — with no obligation.
Click the "Start Your Free Trial" button or fill out the form on this page to get started.
Will martial arts help with real self-defense?
Yes. Our training focuses on practical, real-world self-defense skills. You’ll learn how to stay calm under pressure, control situations, and protect yourself effectively using proven techniques from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, striking, and combat training.
A good place to start is our Krav Maga training with one of our incredible instructors, Larry Scott.
