Shogun Jiu Jitsu Academy

Shogun Jiu Jitsu Academy operates in Denver under the guidance of a Marcelo Garcia affiliate curriculum, emphasizing a blend of tradition and modern competitive strategies. The academy’s philosophy centers on cultivating disciplined, determined practitioners who embody the mindset of a Shōgun—a warrior committed to continuous evolution. This approach honors the legacy of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu while preparing students to engage actively in competition and personal growth. Classes at Shogun follow a structured progression, with fundamental and advanced gi training led by instructor Manuel Morales. Alongside these, the academy offers dedicated competition sessions where students can refine techniques under the guidance of experienced coaching. Adults also have access to self-defense classes, which complement the technical BJJ curriculum by focusing on practical application. For younger students, a kids’ Jiu Jitsu program introduces the art in an age-appropriate manner, fostering skills and discipline from an early stage. The academy welcomes drop-ins for most classes, maintaining an open policy that supports a variety of training needs. While the schedule focuses primarily on gi training, the emphasis on Marcelo Garcia’s method ensures a curriculum that balances positional control, submission skills, and a competitive mindset. Shogun Jiu Jitsu’s location on Broadway places it within reach for Denver practitioners seeking a school grounded in one of the sport’s respected lineages.
