https://forms.gle/oNwcACDDLsDf8mHb6 We offer new students a 10-day risk-free trial that includes a free uniform to use (with option of purchase) and unlimited access to all of our beginner group classes. We’re confident that the curriculum, the camaraderie, and quality of the instruction will exceed all your expectations. If that’s not the case, just let us know, and we will never charge you a penny (all we ask is that you return the free uniform that we provide you). To take advantage of our 10-day free trial, simply call 970-901-0201 or email [email protected], and we’ll schedule your first class today! We conduct all classes in a cooperative training environment and are committed to ensuring that every new student has an informative, enjoyable experience regardless of age, gender, or athletic ability. Training for the streets and training for jiu-jitsu competitions are two entirely different things. If your sole training objective is to prepare for point-based BJJ tournaments, this program is not for you. If, on the other hand, you have sport BJJ experience and would like to gain awareness as to the technical and philosophical differences between sport and street applicable jiu-jitsu, and you would like to learn the techniques that you will almost certainly need in a real fight against a more athletic opponent, this program is exactly what you are looking for. Free Online Access & Satellite Training Privileges:
Upon enrolling in any of our programs, you will receive a free subscription to Gracie University Online. Through the interactive online platform, you will have access to detailed video instruction on every technique in the course enabling you to study the lessons on any computer or mobile device 24 hours a day! Furthermore, all active students at a CTC qualify to train for FREE at any other Gracie CTC around the world for up to 30 consecutive days per year. Since the curriculum is the same at all Certified Training Centers, you will receive credit for every lesson on your Gracie attendance card when you return home! Certified Gracie Jiu-jitsu Training Centers (CTCs) are martial arts schools that are authorized to teach the proprietary self-defense programs developed by Gracie University Headquarters in Torrance, California. Brazilian Jiu-jitsu (BJJ) is one of the fastest growing martial arts on the planet, but the success of your jiu-jitsu journey will rely heavily on the culture of the school you attend and instructional methods utilized by your teachers. Even though all CTCs are independently owned and operated, we are very proud to inform you that all of certified instructors have undergone extensive training directly under the Gracie Family to ensure that you are provided with the best possible learning environment on your path to jiu-jitsu mastery.

No rivalry. No pressure to prove anything.

Just come train.

Progress doesn’t always look dramatic.

Sometimes it’s one stripe.

One belt.

One technique that finally clicks.

One class you almost skipped—but didn’t.

Those little moments add up.

Every stripe and every belt in these photos represents time on the mats, lessons learned, mistakes made, skills developed, and the decision to keep showing up.

Today we’re celebrating the students who’ve earned another marker along that journey. 🥋

Progress isn’t given. It’s earned one class at a time.

Congratulations to each of you. Keep going. 👊

One of the most valuable things you can learn isn’t how to fight…🤔
It’s how to think when you’re uncomfortable.

When you’re learning Jiu-Jitsu, there will be moments when your first instinct is to tense up, hold your breath, rush, or use all your strength.

Then you learn something different.

Breathe.
Recognize the position.
Solve the problem.
Use the technique.

That ability isn’t built overnight.

It’s built through practice.

And little by little, situations that once felt overwhelming start to feel manageable.

That’s progress.

🥋 No experience necessary.
🥋 Beginner-friendly instruction.
🥋 Structured drilling before live sparring.

Start your FREE 10-Day Trial and see what you can learn about yourself.

The first time you learn a Jiu-Jitsu technique, your brain might be saying…

Wait. Which hand goes where? 😂

Then you do it again.

And again.

Eventually, you stop having to think about every little movement.

Your hands know where to go.
Your body starts recognizing the position.
Your reactions become faster.

Something that once felt completely foreign starts to feel familiar.

That’s one of the most rewarding parts of learning Jiu-Jitsu.

You don’t have to be athletic.
You don’t have to understand it on Day One.

You just have to be willing to learn.

🥋 Our beginner Gracie Combatives program starts with structured drilling—not live sparring—so you have an opportunity to actually learn and develop your skills before adding intensity.

Big changes rarely happen all at once.

They happen when you show up.

One class.
One technique.
One small improvement at a time.

You don’t need to completely change your life before starting Jiu-Jitsu.

Just give yourself the opportunity to begin.

Then come back.

And come back again.

Eventually, the things that once felt difficult become familiar. Your body gets stronger. Your skills improve. Your confidence grows.

That’s what progress looks like. 🥋

Confidence usually doesn’t show up before you try something new.

It comes afterward.

After you walked through the door even though you were nervous.

After you learned something you couldn’t do last week.

After you stayed calm in a position that once made you uncomfortable.

After you realized:

“I can actually do this.”

🥋 Jiu-Jitsu gives you opportunities to build confidence—not by telling yourself you’re capable, but by proving it to yourself a little at a time.

You don’t need confidence to start.

Starting is how you build it.

Some days, the workout isn’t even the best part.

It’s the hour you spend focused on something that’s right in front of you.

No emails.
No deadlines.
No endless to-do list.

Just learning, moving, solving problems, and being present.

🥋 Jiu-Jitsu challenges your body.
🧠 It demands your attention.
👊 And sometimes, that’s exactly the reset you needed.

You don’t have to be experienced.
You don’t have to be in shape.
You just have to start.

🎙️ How did Jiu-Jitsu become such a big part of our lives?

We recently had the chance to sit down and share a little more of the story behind Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Grand Junction—how we found Jiu-Jitsu, what kept us on the mats, and ultimately what led us to open a school and start teaching others.

We also got to talk about the kind of Jiu-Jitsu we believe in: practical, self-defense focused, and built to help everyday people become more confident and capable.

If you train with us, have been curious about what we do, or just want to know a little more about the people behind the academy, give it a listen. 🎧🥋

A huge thank you to RolRolling Across America - RAAr having us on and giving us the opportunity to share our story.

You don’t have to get in shape before starting Jiu-Jitsu.

That’s kind of the point. 👊

If you’ve ever thought, “I’d love to try Jiu-Jitsu, but I need to lose some weight first… get stronger first… get my cardio back first…” — you’re not alone.

Come as you are.

Our beginner program starts with learning and drilling — not live sparring. You get time to learn the movements, build coordination, develop reflexes, and improve your fitness as you go.

You don’t get fit for Jiu-Jitsu.

Jiu-Jitsu can be part of how you get fit.

🥋 No experience necessary
💪 All fitness levels welcome

☀️What an incredible week.☀️

Over the last 5 days, these campers laughed, learned, challenged themselves, built friendships, tried new things, and created memories we’ll never forget.

Some arrived on Monday a little nervous. By Friday, they were encouraging teammates, leading games, trying new activities, and showing confidence that wasn’t there just a few days earlier.

To every family who trusted us with your children this week: thank you. It was truly an honor to be part of their summer.
