Rocian Gracie Jr. Prof Marlon Colorado

I joined the gym recently and absolutely loving it! Hitting mainly the 7 a.m. classes before work, Monday through Friday. The team and instructors are all excellent; the warm-up, drills, technique, sparring, and cool down are all wonderful to aid in learning, injury prevention, and safety. For morning classes, we do a warm-up, movement drills, submission drills, technique, sparring, and a quick yoga flow at the end! (shout out to Andrew). It's the absolute best way to start my morning. Each night I fall asleep, and I look forward to starting the day with a BJJ session! The spacious gym is in a newer building on the 4th floor, features all-white mats, and has a squat rack and more in the back. So far, I've learned a lot of new moves and refined old ones; the curriculum is very efficient, detailed, and accelerated. Also, Judo and women's BJJ classes are available! If you're looking for a good community with quality instruction, the teachers here are razor-sharp and will fix any mistak

Professor Rocian's method is excellent, professor Marlon very caring, helpful, patient and wants everyone to do great. Is changing my life on of the best decisions i have taken in my life, I'm 36 years old and trying to take better care of myself. I definitely recommend it

This place has now become a new home to me thanks to the amazing professor Marlon who makes the academy a safe and fun learning environment. I’ve been going for the past 9 months and it has been one of the best experiences! Also I’ve learned so much even when I thought I’d never get the hang of it. It’s truly a great place to go if you want to feel a sense of community, growth, and betterment both mentally and physically. Thank you Marlon and everyone who has made me feel so welcomed ❤️

Had a chance to visit NY from the West coast, Marlon and his staff welcomed us and we had a blast. High levels instruction. Super clean gym, great mat space. The culture in the gym was great, would highly recommend to anyone who is in NY and wants to start their BJJ journey or is looking for a new home 👍🏽🥋
