Questions, answered
Everything people ask before their first private session.
How does booking a private BJJ session on Tapd work?
Browse coaches near you, open a profile to see their belt rank, gym, rate and availability, then pick a time that suits you. You pay securely at checkout and the session is confirmed straight away. No membership and no subscription.
What does Tapd cost?
Tapd charges a 5% service fee to the student and a 5% service fee to the coach on each booking. Browsing is free, and listing a coach profile is free. Both fees are shown before anything is confirmed.
Are the coaches on Tapd verified?
Every coach applies with their belt rank, gym and affiliation, and we review each application before the profile goes live. Coaches must be blue belt or above. Our review is a reasonable check rather than a background check, so you should still satisfy yourself a coach suits you, particularly when booking for a child.
Can a coach come to me?
Many can. Each coach chooses whether they run sessions at their own gym, travel to the student, or both, and those who travel set the distance they cover. The profile shows which options that coach offers before you book.
What happens if I need to cancel?
Cancel more than 24 hours before the session and you are refunded in full, including the service fee. Inside 24 hours the coach may keep the session fee, since that time was held for you. If the coach cancels, you are always refunded in full.
Do I need experience to book a private session?
No. Coaches take complete beginners through to competitors, and a private session is the fastest way to start because everything is pitched at you. Tell your coach your experience and goals when you book.
How do I become a coach on Tapd?
Apply with your belt rank, gym, the areas you cover and your hourly rate. It takes a few minutes, listing is free, and once we approve your profile students nearby can find and book you.
