Mile High Gracie Jiu-Jitsu

Mile High Gracie Jiu-Jitsu has been providing elite instruction in the arts of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and submission grappling since the year 2000 (over two decades)!

Our school and instructors follow two lineages directly from the legendary Gracie family who helped evolve Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and mixed martial arts (MMA) into what they are today.

  1. Royce Gracie
    One branch follows the renown Jiu-Jitsu master, Royce Gracie, Grandmaster Helio Gracie’s son, known for his championship performance in the first UFC ever among several others to follow.
  2. Rorion, Ryron & Rener Gracie
    The other branch under, Rorion (Helio’s first son and creator of the UFC), Ryron and Rener Gracie out of the Gracie Academy headquarters in Torrance, CA.

Our instructors bring together these lineages, core principles, their own experience and other discipline knowledge, to provide a multifaceted curriculum that builds an adaptable foundation that can evolve for traditional & modern scenarios.

Stellar advice and instruction every time you roll with them

I’ve trained at 5+ jiu jitsu/MMA gyms in Colorado and Mile High by far has the most knowledgeable instructors. They have at least 5 black belts (I may be forgetting some) who give stellar advice and instruction every time you roll with them. 10/10.

“Jiu-Jitsu is like human chess.”

It is a perfect balance of physical and mental energy. It’s not just about strength or athleticism. The mind, critical thinking, strategy and technique play crucial roles in the art. Anyone can benefit and become successful at Jiu-Jitsu.
