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 which helped evolve Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and mixed martial arts (MMA) into what they are today.
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. 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.

Visited the school and loved the people in it. Everyone seems to be passionate about teaching the rookies even the students. If you're nervous about coming in don't be they will treat you with the utmost respect and want you to be able to defend yourself, not just totally dominate you. I signed up the moment I left the class but had a work discrepancy, my schedule flipped and I could no longer make 6-8. I sent an email out and THE NEXT DAY they sent me a kind and understanding email and immediately refunded me. I have an insane ammount of respect for these people EXACTLY what you should expect

I visited the school for a private lesson while on a trip to Colorado.. I had just returned from the Gracie Academy in Torrance California.. and I decided to stop by Mile High Gracie Jiu-Jitsu and train while in town. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to take any of the regular classes but fortunately I did get a chance to train privately with Bryan Cameron one of the schools black belt instructors. I did a one hour private session with him and wished I had time for more. Very cool guy and I learned alot. I look forward to my next trip out to Colorado and Mile High Gracie Jiu Jitsu. Thank you

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. They have some top competitors who swear by Mile High as well. One of their brown belts, Troy Everett, beat Chris Leben in a Fight2Win main event so you know the training is legit. Their facility is very clean and the atmosphere is welcoming and laid back. I’m making the switch to MMA training, but in the future I will definitely be returning to this gym

I've been training here for a few years now and love it. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and all of them provide their own unique style. The students are all great and nobody has any ego or attitude. Very comfortable place to train jiu jitsu. They have some of the best prices around and they don't require any contracts like many other schools.

As a new student to the practice of Brazilian Jiu-Jutsu I did a lot of research and visited multiple schools to determine which one would be right for me. Mile High Gracie Jiu-jutsu is welcoming, unpretentious and low-key. I felt right at home. The experienced students spoke to me and encouraged my participation. The instructors are patient, thoughtful, considerate and tough. I would highly recommend this school to any level of Brazilian Jiu-Jutsu practitioner.

I shopped around the typical big schools in Denver. But they are all the typical "30 days free" with a six month contract, with registration fees of $200 bucks and a monthly payment that rivals a car payment! (I use to work for a MA school like that) Lets just say if a school won't list it's prices over the phone, DON'T GO THERE. They are 50% instructors and 50% salesmen. And they will just try to get an "intro" class so they can then manipulate you in person, it's easier that way.
But anyway, mile high is NOT one of them. I have been taking martial arts for 6 years, and Morgan has been one of

If you're looking for the best Jiu-jitsu instruction in town this is the place.
They teach gi and no gi jiu-jitsu with a variety of wresting and judo elements mixed in.
Although the facility is small and there is no striking program (yet) the relaxed instruction by all the coaches and high level students make it the best place to learn.
I've trained at the majority of the sport martial arts academies in the area and this is my favorite. For me the people are the most important part of any academy and Mile High Gracie has the best people to train with.
