Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Grappling GI & NO GI

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu GI & NO GI Class

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a grappling-based martial art built around technique, leverage, control, and problem-solving. Rather than relying on size or strength alone, BJJ teaches you how to control an opponent using positioning, takedowns, escapes, joint locks, and submissions.

At Rad Muay Thai & BJJ in Aurora, Colorado, we offer a welcoming environment for beginners as well as experienced grapplers looking to sharpen their skills or compete.

Learn BJJ at Any Experience Level

You don't need to be in great shape, have previous martial arts experience, or know anything about grappling before you start. Our coaches teach techniques step by step and give students the opportunity to practice through drilling, positional training, and live sparring—commonly called "rolling."

As your skills develop, you'll learn how to stay calm under pressure, solve problems in real time, and use technique and leverage against larger or stronger opponents.

Gi & No-Gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Our BJJ program includes both Gi and No-Gi training, giving students experience with different styles of grappling.

Gi training uses the traditional BJJ uniform and allows grips on the jacket and pants, while No-Gi training is faster-paced and uses grips and controls that don't rely on clothing. Training both can help you become a more well-rounded grappler.

Matamoros Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

We proudly teach Matamoros BJJ, combining proven traditional Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu fundamentals with modern techniques and training methods. Students build a strong technical foundation while continuing to develop their skills for recreational training, self-defense, and competition.

More Than a Workout

BJJ provides a challenging full-body workout, but the benefits go beyond physical fitness. Training develops discipline, confidence, patience, resilience, and the ability to stay composed while working through difficult situations.

And there's always something new to learn. That's one of the reasons so many people find BJJ addictive—you can continue improving and developing your game for years.

Who Can Train?

Our adult BJJ program welcomes men and women ages 14 and up, from complete beginners to experienced grapplers.

• Learn Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

BJJ "NO GI" grappling class

Submission grappling, also known as submission fighting, sport grappling, or No-Gi, is a martial art and competitive sport that involves ground fighting with the goal of forcing an opponent to submit using submission holds.

This type of grappling does not involve the use of a "gi," or traditional martial arts uniform, and is often associated with techniques drawn from folk wrestling, Judo, Greco-Roman wrestling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and Sambo.

​In addition to its physical benefits, submission grappling can also provide mental strength training and is considered an excellent activity for fitness and martial arts training.
