From someone coming from big well known reputable schools to here it’s a big difference in terms of environment and how they treat you. Coach Ismael treats you like a student and is constantly trying to help you get better and push you up. The other gyms I come from I won’t name any names but they treat you like a dollar sign as opposed to a student. Here at Pangea you are a student and if you’re trying to compete this is the school to come train at not only will you be pushed but you will excel here!!!

Highly recommend!! Such an amazing space for all ages and experience levels to train and learn new techniques. I was able to take a women’s self defense class and learned so many incredible skills to feel safe no matter the situation. The community of people and instructors at Pangea have so much knowledge and are truly some of the best people around. This is the place to go in the Arvada/Denver area, don’t miss out!

This is the place to train! Fantastic atmosphere, nurturing for those new to grappling, yet plenty of tough rolls to be had. The instruction is top notch. Classes are focused on improvement and skill building while still maintaining an environment that makes training fun and enjoyable. Class sizes are small, which is pivotal in getting individualized attention. Roll through if you are in the Arvada/Denver area!

I love Pangea Jiu Jitsu! I’ve been training for a long time and trained at 7 other schools over the course of my journey. I’m so grateful to have Professor Iz to teach us jiujitsu, as well as Coach Esmelyn. They are amazing instructors. I love the cozy, family-oriented vibe of this tight-knit community. If you are looking for a great place to exercise and learn martial arts, this school is for you!
