Visting the Roy Dean Academy

Just got back from training in beautiful Bend, OR at Roy Sensei's academy. I was very well taken care of and got some good training in especially with the characters pictured above. Thanks so much to Roy & Rick for their hospitality and to all the new friends I made during my stay. And thanks to everyone I got a chance to train with at the academy for the jiu-jitsu lessons! Coach Andres and I will be returning this spring/summer to continue our BJJ quest...

Open Mat this Saturday

Coach Joaquin would like to have a good turnout this Saturday for Open Mat at 12:30 so the competitors can have one last really solid training session. Even if you can only come down for a 1/2 hour of rolling do your best to make it! Aside from the upcoming tourney, we'd like to get a solid regular group for this open mat slot...

Awesome Competition Team Training Session


Thanks again to all who came out for a great comp team training session. Great work! Alan, John and Kevin you guys showed a lot of heart. Nice work.

Brian & Adam Win Big!

Coach Andres with the Champ!

I wanted to send a huge congratulations to Brian Camozzi and Adam Stroup who both made their fighting debuts last night at Red and Jerry's. These guys represented themselves and Factory X, CFL and Front Range BJJ in true style bringing home 2 wins!

Brian fought Muay Thai winning by decision after three rounds and Adam won by guillotine submission in the first round. All that hard work paid off and we could not be happier for them or more proud.

Congratulations Gus!

Just wanted to wish Gus congratulations on his recent tournament down at Fort Carson. He had 3 fights finishing all of them by submission. He could not make it back the following day for the finals so he ended up taking second. Awesome job Gus! We are really proud of you!

Everyone else 2 stripes and up who can come and help out would be much appreciated. Myself, Coach Joaquin and Coach Andres will be there. This is a good time just to get some hard training in and learn how jiu-jitsu competition works.
