FAQ

How do I find a BJJ open mat near the Chicago area?
OpenMapp lists Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gyms in the Chicago area that publish an open mat on a weekly timetable. Use this page for times, then read each gym card for visitor vs members-only. Unknown visitor status stays unknown.
Are BJJ open mats in the Chicago area open to visitors?
Not always. A gym can welcome class drop-ins and keep open mat members-only. OpenMapp stores those as two fields. Do not assume a listed open-mat time means walk-ins are welcome. Check the gym card.
Are BJJ open mats free?
Sometimes. Some gyms list a visitor drop-in or day-pass price, some list $0, and some do not publish a visitor price. OpenMapp only shows a fee when it is a published visitor drop-in or day pass, not a trial or membership. If the card says unknown, the gym has not published a visitor price.
What is the difference between an open mat and a class drop-in?
A class drop-in is a taught session. An open mat is rolling time with little or no formal instruction. Policies are often separate. See OpenMapp’s open mat vs class drop-in guide for how the two fields are labeled.
