Private no-gi jiu jitsu lessons in Miami
Ground Game Theory offers private no-gi jiu jitsu lessons in Miami for students looking for individualized coaching and accelerated progress. Whether you are preparing for competition, working through specific challenges, balancing an unusual schedule, or simply prefer a more private learning environment, our coaches design flexible private sessions around your goals and learning needs.
More than just one-on-one instruction
Our private lessons are run similarly to our regular classes. Sessions typically last 60-90 minutes, with most of the time spent learning through guided live training tailored to your specific goals, tendencies, and skill level. This helps students develop skill faster while building a deeper understanding of jiu jitsu.
Private lessons allow coaches to closely observe patterns in your movement, decision-making, reactions, and habits in real time while giving immediate feedback and adjustments throughout training.

You are renting our mental real estate
Private lessons are not just about the time spent on the mats. Our coaches continuously think about students and their previously discussed goals outside of training, often analyzing problems, refining ideas, and developing better ways to help them improve. Regardless of your goals, private lessons create an ongoing coaching relationship centered entirely around your development.
We do not want to simply give students more information. We want to help them improve as efficiently as possible.

Who private lessons are for
Most students can absolutely reach their goals through our regular classes alone. Our adult program already includes extensive live training, structured coaching, and even a weekly Q&A session where students can ask questions and receive additional guidance outside of class.
Private lessons are simply an option for students looking for a more personalized and accelerated experience.
Some students use private lessons to prepare for competition, sharpen specific areas of their game, work around busy schedules, or build confidence before joining larger group classes. Others simply enjoy the additional attention and individualized feedback that comes with one-on-one coaching.
