INJURIES AND TRAINING
Gracie Jiu Jitsu is called a gentle art and if you haven’t experience that or get injured a lot you may want to look at how you train and who you train with. Seriously if you are injured, you are off the mat and not progressing and that just sucks.
This how some of us brought in the New Year. If you’re looking for self defense, confidence or to get in shape, Jiu jitsu is a awesome way to achieve your goals and have a blast doing it! I encourage anyone out there to looking for something new to add to there life, to come in and try out 2 FREE
Special thanks to Jim Hannan and Jen Sutingo for coming out to train with us, it was a real pleasure having the two of you out here. If anyone is interested in learning REAL Gracie Jiu jitsu, sign up for 2 free classes and see if Gracie Jiu jitsu is right for you!
It’s going to be a exciting time for RGA in 2012. We have alot of momentum coming into the New Year and a lot of new faces are stepping onto the mat for the first time. We would like to welcome you all to the team and family. To everyone who has been with us from the begining, this would never be possible without you. We will continue to grow and inspire our students to be the best they can be on and off the mats!

Great job to all our competitors this past weekend! Heather once again went to war bringing home three golds, Scott made quick work of his competion bringing home the gold and giving all in the open. The kids carried the team this competition racking up a lot of points and medals, awesome job kids! I have recounted the points and submitted the corrections and all in all we tied for third with Infinite MMA according to my recount of the points.

In this video I show a variation I use to setup the submission. Its pretty smooth, fast and sneaky.
Kimura is a very effective finish, one of my favorites! Hopefully some of the details in this video will help you lock down the submission…Enjoy!

Training with coach Miah… Just going with the flow
We know that there are a lot of schools in Colorado that teach Jiu Jitsu, and deciphering where to go is not always easy. We invite you to try two classes for free so you can see the difference for yourself. Not only do we teach the theory and techniques of Jiu Jitsu, but more importantly, lessons that can help in daily life. This includes self defense. Jiu jitsu is an incredibly effective martial art, but sometimes you are attacked without provocation and you need to know more than just how to score points in a tournament. The Gracie self defense aspects of what is taught at the Relson Gracie Academy will provide our students with the necessary skills to deal with all situations, not just what happens on the ground. Our goal is to provide students with such tools as…. Confidence, Self Awareness, Respect and Discipline. You will find that these are more than words at RGA, it is a lifestyle.
What makes us different than ANY OTHER Academy, is our attention to Relson Gracie’s Jiu Jitsu. Relson does not deviate far form the path of what his father Helio taught him, and we do not deviate from what Relson has taught us.
- Over 1600 square feet of mat space
- 16 adult classes per week
- 5 kids classes per week
