Colhado Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy

"Probably the best and most amazing Jiu Jitsu center in SF, maybe even California. The staff is truly like family, they care, they help and they are rock star coaches/instructors. My sons have been going for a few years and they absolutely love the classes as well as the people. It's a true community. I can't say enough good things about Colorado Jiu Jitsu staff and the way they care for my kids. Both my boys look forward to their classes every day and I love the discipline, self control and self defense that they are learning. My only regret is not signing them up when they were 3-4 years old. I feel like we missed out!"

"I love training here. Instructors are knowledgeable and patient with questions. The drills are a great way to practice what was taught and everyone including other students are friendly and accommodating. You can lightly roll with others to practice specific techniques or roll with higher belts for something more challenging. It’s also a great environment for kids to learn not only grappling and BJJ but also some standup martial arts. Overall a great experience and safe place to learn and practice. Highly recommended!"

"I've been going here since 2014 and this academy is top notch. Everyone is welcoming from the white belts all the way to the black belts. There is no ego in this place. Professor Matheus not only teaches jiu-jitsu but would also train the students in judo, striking, self-defense, and more. He does this so that we can incorporate those techniques in our jiu-jitsu training. You can really see his influence in the quality of training that you will get from the other professors that learned from him. You are also guaranteed a full body workout each time you attend class. And most importantly, you will build self-confidence as you learn and grow. I highly recommend that you give this place a try."

"I trained here for over a decade before moving for work. My teammates were my second family. The relationships I built during that time were invaluable. I also can't say enough about head instructor Professor Matheus. His jiu jitsu is world class. I recently received my black belt and I would not have done it without everything he had taught me while I trained under him. He transformed my game and helped me gain success in tournaments. If you want to train at an innovative school with highly skilled practitioners, this is the place!"
