Common questions before day one:
Most people who end up here have already tried the obvious stuff. It usually goes like this:
The regular gym. You went for a few weeks, got bored, your back hurt, you stopped. Lifting weights without a reason gets old fast. Running gets old faster. Neither one teaches you a single thing about your body that you didn't already know.
Group fitness classes. Fine for a workout, terrible for actually learning anything. You leave sweaty. You don't leave with a skill.
Watching jiu jitsu online. You've watched hours of it and not one of those minutes will help you in a live round. You can't learn this from a screen. You can pretend to, but the second somebody is actually trying to choke you it stops being theoretical.
Tried a gym once, didn't go back. The coaching was vague and nobody explained what to do. A structured start makes the difference.
All of those things fail for the same reason. None of them were fun, and you weren't getting better at anything you actually cared about. That's it. That's the whole reason.
Basin is built for two people. They want different things from training, but the club works for both.
You want a real skill and a hard workout without getting punched in the face. You get a clear explanation before training starts, a partner who knows you are new, and coaching through your first live rounds.
You know what good coaching looks like. You get sharp rounds, direct feedback, and the freedom to cross-train wherever you want.
Most gyms get one or two of the things below right. Almost none get all of them in the same place. There's no secret method. Just a handful of things done well, every class, every week.

Canaan Frederick. I started training in 2019, a few months after my father passed. I needed something hard to do. Something that asked everything of me and gave me a way to be in my body instead of my head. Seven years later I haven't stopped.
I've had the pleasure of training under some amazing coaches. Tim Credeur, Jules Bruchez, Josh Artigue, and Heath Henry. I also spent 2022 and 2023 training at Easton in Denver and the surrounding areas, which was an incredible experience, and I came home better for it. I've competed here and there, but I've always had a deeper love for the daily training.
I started coaching in mid-2024 with a class of 3 to 5 year olds. Everyone warned me it would be brutal but it was the opposite. The kids loved me, I loved them, and somewhere in the middle of all that I figured out I was built for this. I took on adult fundamentals shortly after, with everyone from total beginners to a 70-something-year-old in his first gi. The thing people kept telling me was that they actually understood what was being taught, and that stuck.
I'm building Basin with my brother Caleb and my wife Sophia. Breaux Bridge is home, and it deserves a space of this caliber.
