About Us

Who We Are

Colorado Springs Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is an affiliate school of renowned black belt Rigan Machado — built on a living chain of knowledge passed from master to student, all the way to your mat.

Who We Are

A supportive, passionate community of martial artists led by Head Coach Bill Hosken, offering a safe training environment where all ages learn Jiu-Jitsu together.

What We Do

We teach Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (Gi and No-Gi), wrestling, and kickboxing — giving every student a complete foundation in grappling and striking.

Who We Serve

Students across USA and Canada — kids, adults, women, couples, and military & first responders of every skill level.

At Colorado Springs Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, we're dedicated to providing world-class martial arts training for all ages and skill levels. Our programs include Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (Gi and No-Gi), wrestling, and kickboxing, giving you a complete foundation in grappling and striking.

We encourage our students to remain physically fit, maintain self-discipline, and spend the majority of each class on technique — we want to provide high-quality instruction but also make sure that training is fun. Whether your goal is self-defense, competition, or fitness, our expert instructors will help you build real skills, improve your athleticism, and reach your full potential.

Our academy traces a direct lineage from Jigoro Kano and Mitsuyo Maeda through Carlos Gracie Sr. and Rigan Machado, a 9th Degree Red Belt, to Head Coach William (Bill) Hosken — and now to you. That chain of knowledge is what we protect and pass on every day on the mat.
