Aztlan Combat Sports

Early risers at Aztlan Combat Sports in Lafayette might find themselves rolling at sunrise, while evening classes bring together students of all backgrounds for foundational and advanced Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, both in the gi and no-gi. The schedule is built to serve a wide range of athletes, from young kids in the Jaguar program to adults refining their game or sharpening their conditioning for competition. Open mat sessions are frequent and accessible, making it easy for students to fit extra training into their week. Aztlan’s coaching team draws deeply from military, law enforcement, and traditional martial arts backgrounds. Mario Reyes, who leads foundational and advanced Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, brings decades of experience from Army Combatives, multiple deployments, and years of teaching both in and out of uniform. Mac Carter, a certified defensive tactics instructor and local deputy, ties his approach directly to the demands of real-world self-defense and law enforcement. The kids’ Jiu-Jitsu program is headed by Jake Rowe, whose background in education shapes a structured and supportive learning environment. The academy is rooted in the idea that martial arts can change lives, not just through technical skill but by building confidence and resilience. Programs are offered for kids, teens, and adults, with separate classes for foundational and advanced students in both gi and no-gi Jiu-Jitsu. Kickboxing and MMA round out the schedule, and invite-only competition and conditioning classes give dedicated athletes a place to push further. Aztlan Combat Sports keeps its doors open for drop-ins and encourages families to train together, making it a fixture for martial artists in the Lafayette area.
