After over 30 years together, Kenn and Dorothy, both Master Cycle® students at Gracie Jiu Jitsu Houston, are still finding new ways to grow. Martial arts have been a constant in their journey. Dorothy saw how Jiu Jitsu transformed Kenn’s mindset and confidence. Inspired, she tried it herself and quickly fell in love with the art. They’ve trained in Canada and France, and now they have the opportunity to share the mats once again, learning and growing together under Professor Jackson’s guidance. “Gracie Jiu Jitsu Houston is an incredible place to train, and we’re truly grateful to be part of this family.”

Jiu Jitsu teaches one simple truth: the mat doesn’t care how big you are, only how well you adapt. Every round is a lesson in staying calm under pressur. Leverage, not ego, wins the day.

Small victories, strong character.

Meet Coach Teddy, one of our top instructors at Gracie Jiu Jitsu Houston!

With 16 years of training and 7 years as a black belt, Coach Teddy keeps classes lively and practical.

He pushes students to get better, stay motivated, and have fun along the way. Plus, expect some friendly banter. 😅

Outside of jiu jitsu, he’s into CrossFit, gaming, movies, trying new food spots, and hitting the beach. We’re proud to have him as part of the Gracie Jiu Jitsu Houston family.

Try a class with Teddy at our combatives class or for your kids through the Bullyproof program. Check out the schedule here to book: https://gjjhouston.com/schedule

What started in 2020 as a way for Nancy to get back into shape for soccer quickly became something much bigger for the entire family.

After her very first class, she enrolled her kids, who were just 5 and 6 years old. When the gym reopened after COVID, Nancy began helping with the kids' classes to better understand what her children were learning. Dennis joined the journey in 2021, and since then, the whole family has trained together.

Today, both Nancy and Dennis are Certified Instructors helping teach kids and Combatives classes at Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Houston.

Over the last five years, jiu-jitsu has become more than just training. It’s helped their family learn how to stay calm under pressure, work through challenges, accept failure, and grow stronger together.

Watching families grow together through jiu-jitsu is one of the most special parts of what we do. Thank you, Nancy and Dennis, for being such an important part of our community.

One of the most important lessons in jiu-jitsu is learning not to panic in uncomfortable positions.

Before you think about escaping, advancing, or chasing the next move, you first have to learn how to stay calm where you are.

Trust the process.

Behind every confident child is someone who kept showing up.

The moms rushing from work to pickup, sitting through class, tying belts, packing snacks, calming nerves, and showing up day after day… we see you.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible moms out there!

Children who grow up around their parents' business learn a lot about hard work, dedication, and the standards that come with it.

Indy has been a focused little assistant and a devoted student at our very own Gracie Jiu Jitsu Houston. The gym has become her playground and her second home.

Being in the gym is one thing, but putting in the effort is another. Indy received her belt promotion this past week. Congratulations, Indy! You’ve earned it!

As we always say, families that train together, stay together.
