He helped me with self-defense modalities to bring confidence so that an assault will not happen to me again. He was very respectful of my boundaries and sensitivities from my assault. He always approached me in such a gentle manner while also teaching me very helpful skills in getting away from and defending myself if ever attacked. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to learn skills that are helpful in building confidence in your surroundings around you.

The training itself pushed my limits, sharpened my awareness, and left me feeling stronger and more confident than ever. Bruce and the instructors didn't just demonstrate each technique--they took the time to break down every form, explain the purpose behind each movement, and show why each method truly matters. Overall, Annie and Bruce created an environment that felt both empowering and supportive, making the entire experience unforgettable. I'd give this a 10 star if I could! Highly recommend!

I take the adult classes and my kids are in the kids class. Moore's does a really good job keeping it fun while still holding everyone accountable. Since starting, I've seen a big increase in my kids confidence along with better discipline and focus at home and school. The adult classes are challenging but supportive, and you actually learn practical self-defense instead of just going through motions. I'd definitely recommend coming in and trying a class if you've been thinking about martial arts but weren't sure where to start!

DC Fighters is the best Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu school to train in Colorado Springs. I have trained in…read morefour other schools throughout my BJJ journey, and here are the top seven reasons I think DC Fighters is the best. 1. Professors Mike and Alec bring the most up-to-date BJJ technique to the curriculum. They never hold back instruction and will patiently guide students from the fundamentals through the most up-to-date techniques developed in the ever-evolving sport of BJJ. 2. Prof. Mike is a retired Soldier who understands what it's like to start and stop training due to deployments and PCS. He has a true knack for assessing a person within their journey. 3. Students learn both sport jiu-jitsu, judo, and self-defense. As a student, you have the freedom to develop and focus where your interests lie. I was interested in becoming a coach, and Mike developed a program just for me to make that happen. 4. For those who already practice and are considering DC Fighters, I think it's fair to say we all hate the ambiguity culture of BJJ and not knowing how we are doing and progressing. Not at DC Fighters, Mike and Alec will tell you exactly where they think you are and what you need to work on to get to the next level in your journey. 5. If you have kids, OMG, this is the place to go! Mike and Alec are fantastic with Kids. Classes are fun and well structured. As kids progress, they have opportunities to compete all the way up to world-level tournaments. Mike is a natural-born coach and leader with many championship kids under his wing. He also provides a safe environment for kids to learn about themselves and test themselves physically and mentally. 6. Training at DC Fighters will allow you to be affiliated with DC Fighters Infight Jiu-Jitsu directly out of Rio, Brazil. Mike is an International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation (IBJJF) certified 1st degree Black Belt and the first American to earn a Black Belt from DC Fighters in Brazil. Training at DC Fighters provided me the legitimacy of certifying my belts with the IBJJF. 7. DC Fighters is a huge family. I think Mike has like ten of his own kids, and they all train there, lol! Seriously, Mike and his family are good, warm, and welcoming people. They do what they do for their family and the love of the sport. I encourage you to drop in and see for yourself. Regardless of whether you're brand new or have been training for years, I would love to see you on the mat!

But my 11 year old has been in their program under a year and after multiple competition wins in jujitsu is graduating to some Muay Thai training directly from coach. They are great with kids but also the adult classes are amazing. My older son went to another gym and didn't last a year. He got lost in the very high numbers and coaches had a hard time remembering his 3 letter name. This isn't the case here. Coaches know my son and love him and are biting their nails when he competes , and are so proud when he does well. That love and caring that I see from coaches , and teammates is gonna keep my son here for good. Located in the chapel hills mall it's a great location you can get some exercise walking the mall if you want or even use the Matt's if you like. Give it a try DC fighters. You won't regret it! Bud.
