Four Steps to Safety at Lineage BJJ®

Lineage BJJ - Your Trusted Martial Arts Training Facility

Ensuring the utmost safety at Lineage BJJ® and Calvert MMA® has always been our top priority. We are committed to creating and maintaining the safest training facility in the area, leaving no aspect of safety unaddressed.

Step 1: Comprehensive Facility Planning and Cutting-Edge Equipment

At Lineage BJJ, our commitment to safety and excellence extends to our facilities. Our St. Mary's County facility was purposefully designed and built to meet the specific needs of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu training. We had the opportunity to create an interior layout that maximizes the training area, ensuring an optimal environment for learning and practicing the art.

In Calvert County, our longest-running school since 2007, we have continuously improved our facility to prioritize the safety and comfort of our members and their families. The Calvert facility has undergone three renovations, each time incorporating upgrades that enhance safety and provide a more comfortable experience. We spare no expense when it comes to ensuring the well-being and satisfaction of our members.

We invite everyone considering our school to visit any of our locations. Contact us to schedule a tour, observe a class, or even participate in a free class. We want prospective members to see firsthand the meticulous research and selection process we undertook when building Lineage BJJ. Our dedication to choosing the best cleaning equipment, state-of-the-art air filtration systems, premium matting, and expert instruction is evident in every aspect of our facilities. Every decision we make is driven by our unwavering goal of delivering an unparalleled training experience to our students.

Come and see for yourself why Lineage BJJ is the premier choice for those seeking a safe and exceptional martial arts training environment.

Step 2: Safety-Driven Techniques and Qualified Instructors

At Lineage BJJ, we take pride in being a complete martial arts academy. Our curriculum encompasses both sport-based and self-defense-focused Jiu-Jitsu, incorporating training with the gi (Jiu-Jitsu uniform) as well as nogi training. This comprehensive approach sets us apart from other schools and ensures that our techniques are effective in both competition and real-life self-defense situations.

We prioritize top-notch instruction in Gracie Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, which emphasizes leveraging natural body movement for optimal effectiveness. Our black belts and instructors embody accountability and responsibility, fostering a respectful and relaxed atmosphere for learning. We understand that safety is paramount, and we go above and beyond to prioritize it without compromising on the quality of our instruction.

Whether you are looking to excel in Jiu-Jitsu competition or seeking practical self-defense skills for real-world scenarios, Lineage BJJ is dedicated to providing you with the highest level of training. Our techniques are tried and tested, ensuring that you gain the confidence and proficiency needed in any situation.

Step 3: Premium Matting System for Optimal Protection

At our Saint Mary's Lineage BJJ location, we prioritize the critical importance of a quality mat system for a BJJ training facility. To ensure the highest level of safety, durability, and comfort, we carefully selected a two-layered mat system. Our mats consist of two inches of closed foam combined with a half-inch Ensolite layer. This design provides the necessary firmness, optimal weight distribution, and excellent impact protection during training sessions. Additionally, we have installed a seamless, waterproof tarp to prevent toe and finger injuries and facilitate easy cleaning, further enhancing the safety measures in place.

In our Calvert location, we have chosen framed 2-inch Fuji Sports mats. This specific mat system was selected to meet the unique requirements of our fitness program offered at this location. The textured surface of these mats prevents slipping, ensuring a secure training environment. They are also exceptionally durable, capable of withstanding the demands of fitness classes and the accompanying equipment. Both our Saint Mary's and Calvert locations feature padded walls to provide an added layer of safety. Moreover, our Calvert facility boasts the same fencing found in UFC competitions, ensuring a professional and authentic training experience.

At Lineage BJJ, we leave no stone unturned when it comes to creating safe and well-equipped training environments. Our mat choices, padded walls, and specialized features are all part of our commitment to delivering exceptional training experiences to our valued members.

Step 4: State-of-the-Art Cleaning Equipment and Procedures

At Lineage BJJ, we place the utmost importance on maintaining a clean and hygienic environment. In addition to regular high-touch surface cleaning and restroom maintenance, we have implemented strict protocols to ensure the safety of our students. Hand sanitizers are conveniently located throughout our academy, and we require students to wash or sanitize their hands before and after each class. Our mobile app facilitates contactless class check-in, streamlining the registration process and minimizing physical contact.

To ensure the cleanliness of our training mats, we employ advanced cleaning methods. Our state-of-the-art equipment includes electrostatic sprayers such as the Emist, which effectively disperses an all-natural, thyme-oil based solution to eliminate mold, bacteria, fungus, and viruses. Additionally, we utilize high-end battery-powered vacuums like the iMop, which thoroughly scrub and squeegee the floor, leaving the mats impeccably clean.

Taking our commitment to cleanliness a step further, we have incorporated multiple disinfection and ionizing systems within our air handling systems. Our Secureaire system is designed to destroy mold, bacteria, fungus, and viruses, ensuring the air within our facility remains clean and safe. Additionally, we utilize the Remehalo device, which not only eliminates harmful particles in the air but also ionizes it. This ionized air acts as a disinfectant when it falls on surfaces such as our mats, countertops, seats, and floors, effectively killing bacteria, mold, and viruses.

We take pride in being one of the few martial arts schools in the nation that has made such significant investments in cutting-edge equipment to ensure the safety of our members, their families, and our guests. At Lineage BJJ, you can trust that we spare no effort in upholding the highest standards of cleanliness and hygiene, providing you with a training environment that prioritizes your well-being.
