Wow!!! What an awesome place! So clean, really comfortable environment for kids, beginners, or anyone else who is looking for a new gym to train in or visiting from out of town. Eddie is a really great instructor and everyone on the mat was welcoming and super friendly. They also have Muay Thai here. I was coming to visit for a special Gracie Jiu Jitsu seminar but I’ll try to come back for a Muay Thai class as well! Really recommend this place!
Echo Alpha is a great place to train. Coach Eddie is a skilled practitioner and a good coach who cares about his students and tells things as they are. He maintains a safe environment and enforces safe practices to limit injury. He also takes pride in his facility and keeps it real clean so everyone can enjoy. The people who train here are friendly and encouraging but don't be fooled by their chill demeanor, they're tough as nails on the mat. Sparring is tough - multiple back to back 5 minute rounds which definitely builds character and grit. Really great school, totally recommend.
Great place for jujitsu! My two youngest age 8 and 11, they have been coming here for a few months now. Coaches are wonderful, very patient and highly skilled. Great place and awesome coaches that treat you like family.
Traveled from Colorado and was invited by a friend to take a class. It was a pleasure being in such a welcoming environment for all skill levels to learn. The coach was skilled and extremely knowledgeable. I would highly recommend training here.
Amazing school with an awesome BJJ Coach who’s extremely knowledgeable. As soon as you walk in you’re greeted like family, there’s nothing else you could ask for. They train hard, safe, and effective. Highly recommended.
Frequently Asked Questions
IS THERE A FREE TRIAL CLASS?
Absolutely. We invite all prospective students to try their first class free at Echo Alpha Gracie Jiu Jitsu. It's the best way to experience our training environment, meet our coaches, and see if BJJ is right for you. No experience or equipment needed — comfortable athletic clothing is fine.
DO I NEED ANY EXPERIENCE TO START?
No experience necessary! Echo Alpha Gracie Jiu Jitsu welcomes complete beginners. Our instructors break down every technique step by step, and our community is known for being welcoming and patient with new students. Everyone starts as a white belt, and that's exactly where you should start too.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR TO MY FIRST CLASS?
For your first visit, comfortable athletic clothing works perfectly — a t-shirt and shorts or athletic pants. Once you commit to training regularly, you'll want to invest in a gi (kimono). Our coaches can recommend quality options at a range of price points.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I TRAIN?
Most students at Echo Alpha Gracie Jiu Jitsu train 2 to 3 times per week and see consistent progress. Showing up regularly matters far more than training intensely once in a while. We offer multiple class times throughout the week so you can find a schedule that fits your life.
DO YOU OFFER CLASSES FOR KIDS?
Yes! We offer dedicated programs for children and teens at Echo Alpha Gracie Jiu Jitsu. Our youth classes focus on discipline, respect, confidence-building, and the fundamentals of BJJ in a safe, fun environment.
