The instructors, fellow students and community built around this sports are some of the most hardworking, dedicated and friendly people I’ve ever met. Love the work ethic and attitude of the people who attend and the instructors do an excellent job explaining and demonstrating. Very highly recommend.
I have only been training at Renzo Gracie Jiu Jitsu for about a month, but already feel like I have grown by leaps and bounds under Professor Avi’s instruction! As a service member, combat techniques are a constant. Through instruction at this school I went from barely knowing anything to having numerous weapons in my arsenal to compete with others efficiently. I’m sure that as time goes on, this will only continue to grow. Amazing school with amazing instructors and lessons that build on themselves to really perfect the fundamentals.
Greta place to train, perfect fusion of competitive and casual training. Great team members and coach
I have only been in the bjj game for about 5 years, but this by far the best place I have seen. Welcoming encouraging environment, with a precise focus on technique and a well rounded program for adults and kids. Highly recommend.
Professor Avi runs a great establishment with a great group of students. I really like his style of teaching with detailed instruction that is easy to comprehend. I recently relocated to the area and was fortunate to find this great academy. I have trained jiu jitsu for over 20 years and feel this is the place to train if you are in the Colorado Springs area.
Extremely friendly environment and very welcoming to beginners like myself. If you want to train jiu jitsu and are nervous on where you should start this is a great gym to start training at!
Love this BJJ gym and I train here often
Beutiful gym and amazing professor, Professor Avi puts alot work into making gym and being a amazing person
Excellent training 👏 top class facility and most importantly a super social experience.
This BJJ school is more than a school, its a family. Such an awesome group of people. Professor Avi is extremely technical and detail-oriented which was very helpful for me as a beginner with no grappling experience. He teaches concepts that are built on one another in a series, which really helps retention. I wish I started BJJ sooner, its never too late!
Amazing place, extremely clean, and a family atmosphere for learning. Professor Avi is a skilled instructor who makes learning fun and easy for all ages. There are classes at multiple times during the day and at night to accommodate any schedule. I highly recommend coming in and seeing for yourself and taking the classes.
Everyone wants to help one another. Less focus on rank, more focus on technique. Great for kids! Both of my young daughters come here as well and have a great time while learning valuable skills that will continue to evolve.
I signed up 2 months ago, along with my 7, 9, and 12 year old children. It’s been a great experience! Clean facility, knowledgeable coaches, and a lot of schedule options for kids and adults! Highly recommended!
Avi is the best! Couldn’t ask for a better, safer more friendly environment. Avi is a thorough coach and supports his students incredibly at every skill level. I love coming to class here!
Exceptional instructors. Provides positive atmosphereand a conducive learning environment for all ages and experience levels. If your looking to get started or knock the dust off I can’t recommend a better place.
This place is very welcoming to beginners as well as advanced students. Professor Avi is great at helping individuals adapt techniques to their skill levels. Can’t recommend enough!
Went for open mat. What an Amazing place. Students were very friendly. Facility was exceptionally clean.Has restrooms & water fountains available.Not sure the prices for membership, but most likley worth it.
Large mats, workout equipment, and more. Kids class is very detailed, definitely worth it!
Initially my son started taking classes and then I decided to try a class . I was immediately hooked . The professionalism and technicality of Professor Kashub is hands down the best you will find . Now it has become a family affair and part of our lifestyle .
Great no pressure, family oriented atmosphere that trains hard. Avi is a very detailed instructor hitting all the points from all the angles with some laughs. You willing instantly feel nothing but good vibes at fundamentals and open mat.. very clean and cautious training area. Currently a member. Sofronio-oct 2020
Avi is a great instructor. I take my 8 year old there. Classes are laid back and fun. Kids get a good workout, plus the benefit of learning self defense.
Great school. I enjoy the classes and the people.
Great atmosphere and great teammates!
The fact that I feel confident in being able to defend myself against much larger and stronger opponents of any skill level is a testament to Avi and his instruction. By far one of the very best places to train bjj in all of Colorado.
Professor Avi is one of the best in the business. Top Tier instruction at welcoming and supportive environment. If you are thinking about starting, get in and schedule a free class today.
Tried my first class last night..I was more than impressed.Mr Kashub is a excellent teacher. Everyone was super chill. While everyone trained hard, they also trained safely.The school itself was spotless with clean mats.I would advise anyone wanting to learn BJJ to check out this school
Hello, I stole my nieces phone to write this but. We are visiting from St Petersburg FL and was looking for a school for my daughter to train for the week. The instructor welcomed us and was very polite. My daughter was able to learn some new techniques and have a different point of view in this sport. This school is on its way to the top for sure. See you again Renzo. Thank you very much.
My husband and I started coming to this gym after we got stationed in Colorado. It is hands down the best gym around, and the best instruction I have EVER received. Avi (and all of the people who go here) have a wealth of knowledge and a great way of teaching that has improved my jiu jitsu tremendously. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.
Avi is an highly technical Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt under Renzo Gracie. Beyond his technique, his humble approach to the gentle art and passion for sharing his knowledge with adults and children alike set him apart. Renzo Gracie Colorado is sure to be an amazing academy, with a positive family atmosphere. If you are thinking of starting or coming back to Jiu Jitsu, this is the place to be.
Accommodating, and very friendly. Chill environment
I received my black belt from Renzo Gracie himself. I have been training for 20 years and I can tell you that Avi is one of the most technical black belts I have had the pleasure of training with.I own an academy in Florida and he has taught many of my classes. He is an excellent professor and honestly Colorado Springs is lucky to have him and the Renzo Gracie team in another section of the great state of Colorado.
Professor Avi is one of my favorites teacher and training partner. He always has great energy on the mat and he is a very technical feather too. Cant wait to visit and see the new academy
Professor Avi is a great teacher! He explains Jiu-Jitsu techniques and fundamentals in a manner that makes its easy for anyone to understand and pick up. Highly recommended
Came in while on vacation, the instructor was very friendly and the facility was squeaky clean.Highly recommend🤙
Ive trained with Professor Kashub for 3 years and in that time he has influenced my Jiu Jitsu game greatly. His attention to detail and approach to teaching is some of the best that Ive ever experienced
Ive been training for some time now and I can say that professor Avi is very technical, knowledgeable and a great teacher. Colorado Springs is very fortunate to have someone of his caliber spreading the art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
As a fellow Renzo Gracie Black Belt I only have the best to say about Professor Avi and this facility.Renzo Gracie Colorados student will be receiving nothing but the best caliber Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instruction and training!
Having personally trained with Avi for the last few years I have known him to be not only a great instructor but an even better human being. I know that his academy will have everything youre looking for in a BJJ school. Great environment, Great instruction from a great instructor and best of all Great teammates.
Great place very good. I go there
Professor Avi is one of the most technical instructors Ive had the privilege to train with. He teaches techniques that can be used by anyone, any size or any age.
Having trained all over the country, I say with certainty that you cant find a better place to learn BJJ or perfect your game that Renzo Gracie CO. Professor Avi takes extra time with each student to ensure theyre grasping the material as he imparts his seemingly infinite expertise on them. It is also a fantastic family environment where adults can challenge themselves in a respectful manner and kids can develop into martial artists without undue fear of injury. Professor Avis school strongly earns my highest recommendation and I cant say enough about it! Give it a try, you only have a lot to gain.
Amazing place to train BJJ. No pressure environment.
Avi is the kind of person you want to know on and off the mat. A great teacher. JiuJitsu is a lifestyle and he is someone to learn it from. I can not recommend him enough.
For the last two years Ive trained with Professor Avi, hes extremely knowledgeable and skilled at Jiu Jitsu. He also embodies the true goal of the Jiu Jitsu lifestyle.
I have been learning from Professor Avi for a few years and he is an excellent teacher and a great friend. I plan to train at his academy every year when I visit my family in Colorado!!
Avi is a super technical black belt. It was a privilege to train with him for several years in Weston, FL. He’s not only knowledgeable and technical but a great person. I will make sure I train at his school if I’m ever in the neighborhood.
Learning from a fellow Renzo Gracie Black Belt of Avi’s caliber was a privilege. Avi is one of the most technical and effective grapplers I have trained with. Colorado Springs is very lucky to have him opening an academy. I look forward to visiting and training with everyone at Renzo Gracie Colorado in the future!
I was one of the original students of master Renzo Gracie. Stared Jiu Jitsu in 1995, got my purple belt from Renzo Gracie and my black belt from Pablo Popovitch. I can tell you that professor Avi is an old time jiu jitsu practitioner as my self, lots of knowledge and solid foundations. Avi, my partner and my brother I miss you! cant wait to visit your academy and roll with you again. Good luck to you on opening an academy and spreading Renzos jiu jitsu philosophy. see you soon.
Absolutely best training you can get in the area. Professor Avi is a great guy and truly cares about all of his students. Plus, he gives a good military discount and takes extra pride in training 10th SFG guys who actually use his material. The only people who dont return just couldnt handle it, the rest just become better warriors. Avi makes you work, but you learn a lot while he pushes you and theres no better way to build discipline while also improving PT. Strongly recommend.
I totally agree with my professor Stan Beck. Avi is a authentic black belt, with a lot of knowledge to share with the Renzo Gracie family in Colorado.
Awesome!
Great environment.
