Madhouse BJJ

At Madhouse BJJ in Cheyenne, students walk into a facility where the grind is front and center—clean, competition-grade mats, a practical open layout, and a class schedule built around both gi and no-gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for adults and kids. The gym’s daily rhythm is set by structured training blocks: gi and no-gi fundamentals for adults, advanced sessions, and open mats that welcome drop-ins. Kids’ classes, offered in both gi and no-gi formats, focus on building confidence, teamwork, and strong technical habits from day one. The academy was founded by Professor Emmanuel Waddy, who brings over 15 years of mat experience and a teaching philosophy rooted in respect, discipline, and mental toughness. Coaches like Rick and Erik lead the kids’ program, blending technical rigor with encouragement and making sure young students develop both skill and resilience. Professor Nate leads adult classes, guiding students through the basics and into more advanced strategy, always emphasizing progress through effort and mindset. Madhouse BJJ started as a small training group and has grown into a full academy through loyalty and a commitment to constant improvement. The school’s approach is straightforward: every student, regardless of background or fitness level, is expected to push limits and support one another. The facility also offers Muay Thai for adults and maintains amenities like locker rooms and wheelchair accessibility. Whether it’s a first roll or preparation for competition, the focus remains on discipline, respect, and growth on and off the mat.
