  Alan knows EVERYONE by name. We get drop-ins from all over the world. Kind people = great culture People that move away always come back to visit when they’re in town. This place is supportive for hobbyists AND competitors. The gym primarily consists of hobbyists, like most jiu jitsu gyms. All walks of life bless our mats. Alan still actively competes. Anyone who competes knows the Carlson Gracie lineage of competitors. Not cult-ish at all. No bowing to pictures or idol worshipping. Buy and wear whatever gi you want. No paying for belt stripes or promotions. No coercion to nickel and dime you to death. No special titles for instructors. They don’t force you to call them “Professor”, “Coach”, or “Master”. Just talk to them like regular people. Not some weirdo with an inferiority complex. The instructors teach mostly fundamentals with various adjustments for the variety of body types that we have on the mats. They are so knowledgeable and accommodating to everyone. They will try multiple ways to get to the destination (submission, pass, etc.) according to how flexible/fit your body is. They meet you where you are. Don’t use the excuse of needing to get in shape before you start. The hardest part is just to start. I’m speaking from experience. Don’t even worry about the vernacular. You’ll learn everything as you go along. Nobody expects you to have knowledge prior to being taught. There is usually a monthly focus on a position and weekly focus on a few techniques from that position. There’s no ego. They are always improving the teaching process until we get it. They do not do things just because that’s how it’s always been done. They do it better. They teach technique AND concepts. The mats get cleaned daily. Cleanliness is held to the same high standard as everything else. No tolerance for mat bullies/toxic people/behavior. Only kind killers. Unless your nails are long and dirty. Or you’re stinky. We’ll call you out on it. The depth of jiu jitsu knowledge that the instructors display is astounding. It’s like having a super power. It’s crazy to see the smaller/weaker person dominate a bigger/stronger person. I’ve been at this gym for almost 2 years. My only regret is not starting sooner.

  I was passing through town and hoped to get a training session in. I found Stockman Jiu-Jitsu, and they had a 5:30 am class, which is pretty impressive by itself. My instructor that morning was Colby. I learned several new techniques and had an excellent time training. I would recommend that anyone check them out!! Thanks for a great start to the day Colby!!

  This is a great place to learn Jiu-Jitsu! All the people here are welcoming and kind. I have been going here for about 4-5 years now and I have learned so much! I love going here and all the instructions are very kind and they will help you when your confused. I have never had any bad experiences here and none of my friends have ether. Jiu-jitsu has made me more mature and has definitely made me want to keep going! I would 100% recommend Stockman Jiu-Jitsu to anyone wanting to learn!

  Absolutely awesome dojo. I came in from out of town and wanted to continue my training while in town. Call and spoke with the owner whom invited me in with open arms. The experience, the family atmosphere and hospitality was Amazing. All of the students welcomed me in as if was a regular. I would give this place 20 stars if I could. In my opinion, you wont find a better place. If you are nervous or feel that you may get intimadated as a new student or just in from out of town for a couple days. Don't hesitate to stop in. 👍OSS!!!

  I've visited many schools around the US and found that this school is top tier! Professor Stockman is a great instructor with a wealth of knowledge. His students are all high-level and technical. Everyone I met at this school was friendly and welcoming. The facility is really clean and the mats are amazing. Highly recommend this school to everyone.
