First time at class
I remember my first class very vividly. We started out with a warm up of about 30 minutes. Mostly crunches, variations of crunches, and a lot more crunches. We then went over some very basic stuff (I was the only guy in class that night). I learned different ways to mount, and the ultimate tie up (side mounted with the guys arm across his own neck). After that the fun began. The instructed commenced kicking my worthless ass for about 15 minutes. You will more than likely get your ass kicked too, but don't let that get you down. That just shows that BJJ's effectiveness. Guys that had been coming to class for only a year or so could wipe the floor with me when I first joined, but not now.
If you're out of shape right now, don't let that hold you back from taking classes. I've lost about 25 pounds since I started. It gets you in shape.
