Our motto comes from the history of ships using the stars and planets for navigation. Venus is known as both the morning star and the evening star because it was brightest before the Sun rises as well as just before the Sun sets. Morning Star Jiu Jitsu was established to help you navigate the art of Jiu Jitsu.
At Morning Star Jiu Jitsu, we are the area's leader in No-Gi Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and we can't wait to show you why. Our system is built on a no-gi strategy that focuses more on real-world self-defense scenarios than on the point-based competition style of full-gi Jiu Jitsu. We're helping men and women all across the community challenge their bodies and their minds and enjoy a great support system along the way.

Morning star has a team environment that makes it easy to feel comfortable. Tim breaks down everything in a simple way to understand way. I love the class structure, everything builds on it self and it makes sense even to a beginner like me. Each class is a complete class in its self. I can only go 1 night a week, but every class I get a complete lesson and learn something new. Great place, for a great price!

Tim has created an exceptionally welcoming atmosphere at Morning Star Jiu Jitsu. No matter what your skill level, he takes the time to help you understand the jiu jitsu process that can be tricky at times. I would HIGHLY recommend Morning Star to anyone that is thinking about starting jiu jitsu. Such a great workout!

To be honest, I was a little wary of the all five star reviews. I thought they were planted. But, after several sessions with Tim and the group he has put together, I'm adding my own five star review. His patience and tact in guidance is astounding. Also, the students he attracts really want to learn and have nothing to prove. The type of student that stays is also a mirror of the teacher. Tim has really put together a group of students where you will flourish from a beginner all the way up to someone who has been training for a decade. Morning Star is one of the reasons, I want to stay in Denver

Before meeting Coach Tim I was 100% in the gi. The last 2 years he has accelerated my learning by introducing me to nogi and bringing techniques that are effective and conceptual to my game. His teaching style is thorough and he takes the time to make sure you understand the technique so it translates to live rolling. You can't find better nogi instruction in the Denver area.
