Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Colorado Springs

“Our daughter has been attending classes here for over a year now, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! She absolutely LOVES it— she looks forward to class each week! Coach Aji and Kiera are amazing with her — patient, encouraging, and truly dedicated. We’ve seen such a big boost in our daughter’s confidence since she started. The positive environment and supportive coaching have made a huge difference. Highly recommend!”

“I’ve been going to this place for 3-4 years now, and this is one of my favorite places to go to every week. The owners and coaches are very nice, reasonable, and are willingly to help anyone at any point. Their teaching skills are very efficient and know how to adapt each lesson for individual students. If you want to learn self defense in Colorado Springs, this is one of the places you must try out.”

“My son and I started with Rey in the fall of 2020. We love the atmosphere and the instructors and higher belts are super patient and helpful. We also love the diversity of students, male, female, young, and old. There are a number of Jiu Jitsu philosophies and approaches. We chose Gracie because they focus on self-defense, not sport. Their combatives program is mature, structured, and combined with outstanding online curriculum makes this an incredible value. Since most street fights end up on the ground, I highly recommend you check them out. 2023 UPDATE: We are now 3 years into our Gracie journey and it continues to exceed our expectations! My son and I both received our blue belts from Ryron Gracie (what an honor!) and my youngest son is now in the Combatives program. Coach Rey is a phenomenal coach and does an incredible job teaching everyone, from brand-new beginners to seasoned veterans. His attention to detail is incredible and his easy-to-understand analogies and explanations help his teaching stick. If you're considering a self-defense program, look no further. This is the best you will find anywhere.”

“My child absolutely loves the jiu-jitsu class! The instructors are fantastic at creating a very detailed and personable training environment. They pay close attention to each child's individual progress, making sure everyone feels supported and challenged. Not only are they teaching valuable self-defense skills, but they also instill discipline and confidence in the kids. It's a perfect blend of learning and enjoyment. Highly recommend for any parent looking to enroll their child in a positive and empowering activity!”

“If you want to learn to defend yourself without jeopardizing your job from injury, or have confidence that your loved ones can learn to defend themselves, there's no place better. One of the best schools in jiujitsu you can find. Self defense first, safe learning environment for all ages including well past 70. Other sport BJJ gyms pretend and market self defense and safety but never deliver. This school has it at its core, while also offering discounted rates at the connected fitness gym.”
