Cypress Jiu Jitsu - Ceconi BJJ

Cypress Jiu Jitsu - Ceconi BJJ is led by Professor Alexandro Ceconi, a Brazilian black belt who began his training under Rilion Gracie in Santa Catarina, Brazil. Ceconi’s journey from working as a car salesman while training at every opportunity to eventually pursuing professional MMA reflects his lifelong commitment to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Drawing from the Gracie tradition, he established his own academy to share self-defense and grappling techniques rooted in practical efficiency and respect. At the Cypress location in Houston, the academy offers structured Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes for adults and children, with a clear emphasis on gi fundamentals. Students are encouraged to develop strong basics in the gi before exploring no-gi options. The schedule includes evening classes Monday through Thursday, early morning sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and Saturday morning training, making it accessible for a range of busy lifestyles. The gym also runs dedicated programs for women and kids, reflecting a belief in Jiu-Jitsu’s value for self-confidence and personal safety across all ages. Ceconi BJJ keeps its focus on the Gracie system’s original vision: practical self-defense that prepares students for unpredictable situations. The facility is modern, clean, and designed to support both group classes and individual attention, and welcomes drop-in visitors. With an unlimited membership model, students can train as often as they wish, and amenities like showers are available for convenience. The academy’s approach combines technical instruction with a strong sense of mutual respect, aiming to help students grow both on and off the mats.
