MMA gym offers kickboxing, jiu-jitsu, Judo, and of course MMA. Fantastic gym with big spaces/mats and even an mma cage.All the coaches are great and everyone is trying to help you improve so long you show the effort to. The front desk staff is friendly and helpful. A lot of the people training in the gym compete themselves, so there are a lot of great people to learn from. Customer service is great, they care about the patrons in the gym truly and the work reflects that.Great programs, coaches, and staff. Would recommend this place to anybody in the Aurora area regardless of age and goals.read more

I reached out to schedule a drop-in class for my daughters and myself, as we were moving across the country and had a scheduled overnight in Denver. High Altitude Martial Arts came recommended from a competition friend of my oldest daughter, so we checked them out.Great customer service from start to finish and FANTASTIC training. They met the needs of my oldest daughter (10yo, advanced, lots of competition experience) and my younger daughter (6yo, beginner, only a season of wrestling competition experience), and me (middle-aged, intermediate, competition days are long gone).If you are looking for a great place to train in Denver, expect great things from High Altitude Martial Arts!read more

Over the past 3 years, HAMA has become my kids second home and the coaches of the youth BJJ and Kickboxing program are our family. The youth and adult coaches are far more than their world class fighting resumes, they are amazing and supportive people. You will get as much out of HAMA as you are willing to invest. Any gym can teach you to punch and roll but it takes something special to become a part of your daily life.read more

Discovering jiu jitsu here taught me:“We don’t know what we don’t know.”Then you become aware what you don’t know. And if show up and live a healthy lifestyle, consistently, the things that once caused you pain don’t cause you pain anymore. And, your decision-making improves. Your stressors in life aren’t so stressful. Jiu jitsu here has made me a better person. The culture is pure respect. If you’re worried about chronic pain, this place will improve it. I used to attend a chiropractor. Not anymore.read more

I've been to 4 or 5 different MMA/BJJ gyms here in Colorado since 2012 and nothing tops the quality and quantity of training you get here. The BJJ courses are incredible and the instructors are VERY technical and can explain things in very depth but simplified details. We drill the same thing all week and expand on things as we go that same week, so you pick up on what we are learning that day, very quickly, by mid week you feel like you've mastered the new technique we learned.Everyone in the beginners and intermediate BJJ class, regardless of rank, have no ego and are not just eager to learn but also teach the lower rank belts, so the comradery is amazing!The striking class is next to none. The instructors are on a whole different level and just built different. They all have professional or amateur fighting experience and whether your looking to fight competitively or looking for real and applicable fighting skills for self defense, this place has it all for every experience level.There doesn't seem to be an ego in this place because everyone there knows, there is someone training there that is better than them and it seems like everyone there is more than happy to help another person learn. I drive about an hour everyday to train there in a truck that gets awful gas mileage, but i keep coming back because the distance and bad gas is worth the quality and quantity of training i get here compared to other gyms and the friends i made there make it worth the drive. As long as i live in Colorado, this will always be considered my "home gym."read more

After training martial arts in Denver for over a decade. High altitude is one of the most legit ones. All the coaches are super experienced and knowledgeable. It’s the man in the arena.Most of the other gyms rely on systems and marketing to keep the gym running. The owner will have it in automation (very unethical and the 2-3 amateur fighters they have are just for marketing purposes)High altitude has world class fighters. Can’t argue with statistics.I recommend anyone to try it out and see for themselves. The experience you’ll have is off the charts. The membership is actually super cheap for the value you’re getting out of it. Use the coaches as mentors too. Stay hard!read more

I am so incredibly happy to have my kid learning here. I have a martial arts background and we bounced through a couple of schools that just really made me cringe. In addition to deep expertise, i cant say enough positive things about HAMA’s approach. They have a wonderful blend of the things a martial art should be - they teach mentally and physically, they he blend correction with fun, they encourage and challenge kids to do a hard thing and give their best, they are SUPER supportive and help kids learn that losses happen and they are chances to grow. Truly thrilled to be here for many years to come.read more

Been training here for 8 months, and I absolutely love it! Great culture, great people, amazing space, and the instructors are top notch.Multiple black belts train here, they have a large range of brown and purple belts all learning and growing, and are very open to feedback and questions during training.I have two kids in the youth classes, and my other kids are planning to join when they get older. Both my kids are in love with training here, it offers a balance of fun and exercise, alongside real life anti bullying experience. The older youth classes also begin to teach more traditional jiujitsu moves, and encourage them to push themselves.I haven’t done the striking classes, but the level of the teachers is phenomenal. They have former and current UFC competitors, and their own fighting team that competes regularly. (Kids striking classes too)All in all, absolutely amazing place to train, I plan to keep training here for a long long time!read more

I’m a purple belt in BJJ and anytime I travel I like to train at different gyms. The team at High Altitude Yeti BJJ was very welcoming. The gym was clean and organized and the instruction I received during class was great. I was blown away by the amount of classes that were offered. This school truly has something for everyone. The people I rolled with all had a solid understanding of fundamentals. The professor came over and helped me work on a heel hook I wasn’t familiar with, diagnosed what I was doing wrong and what I needed to do to fix it. If you live in the area and are looking for a school I highly recommend that you come give this team a try.read more

I have been training for awhile and I felt like I needed a fresh perspective with a new gym. And I found HAMA from the moment I walked in this gym functioned differently from the other gyms I had been to. For one everyone is friendly not just the instructors. Also I have to work a full time job like most of us do so it was sometimes hard to make it to other gyms classes. But at HAMA they are running classes all day. So regardless your schedule there is a class for you! I am very grateful I found this gym. I've been training here now for about 4 months and I already noticed a change in my game. If you have a minute to check this gym out I promise you won't regret it!👌🏻💪🏻read more

My husband and boys have been going to HAMA for almost 2 yrs and absolutely love it. I tried a kickboxing class shortly after they started but I just couldn’t commit. After months of sitting at the gym while now even my daughter takes classes, I had to just sign up and commit to coming. Of course when you start anything new you feel awkward and aren’t really sure what your doing, but the coaches are great and really take the extra time to help you learn the proper techniques. If your looking for a good workout or a even just a fun class to meet new people and get out of your comfort zone, you should definitely try a class.read more

Took me a whole month to decide to call and schedule a free class, I'm happy I did because now I don't see myself without training here. I've been a student for 6 months (started in July), I would recommend the classes to anyone who wants to get outside their comfort zone. The classes really test your mental and physical capacity but they're also really fun! The coaches are accommodating to all levels of students, they teach at a pace where anyone can learn, the coaches at HAMA all want their students to succeed. You also get to partner with all types of people from all walks of life which is pretty awesome. I will be a student here as long as my body allows me to.read more

I only started training because my little brothers had been training and the old manager had convinced me to try it out. I was kinda nervous but the coaches and everyone else who’d train with me were/are very welcoming and teach you a lot. I learn more and more each time I go (which isn’t very often since I don’t live in Colorado full time). But I can say that I do get very excited going when I am able to go. It’s a lot to learn, kinda difficult but if you need the extra help, the coaches are more than happy to re-explain the steps to youread more

I have joined a few different martial arts gyms in Aurora because I've always wanted to compete in amateur fights and smokers. These other gyms would pressure me to complete but I didn't have the skills or confidence to actually compete in a smoker until I trained at high altitude. They made sure that I had the appropriate tools to compete at a high level.read more

Currently taking my 8yo to classes there, and have been for about 18 months. Robin and Ryan (kids coaches) are fantastic. Owners work hard to build a community with customer appreciation night's and bbqs, and Cody in particular has been warm and engaging. Adult classes look exceptionally well organized. Costs are super reasonable. Love the place and am happy to support them.read more

I highly recommend this gym to anyone wanting to learn martial arts or even just try something new to help yourself get in shape. This gym welcomed me with open arms and i have never felt stupid or awkward asking questions while learning the art. The flexibility and abundance of classes in the schedule makes it very easy to attend morning or evenings on a weekly basis! I highly recommend any of Professor Codys’ classes. The positive energy he brings to each and every class is so contagious and motivating! I really enjoy his teaching because he really cares about his students and spills all of his professional knowledge to his classes! This gym offers an amazing kids program with coaches that are experienced with children and highly trained in martial arts. The hardest part was walking through the front door so my advice to anyone is just give it an honest try, you won’t regret it!read more

My daughter's girl scout troop went to a self-defense class at High Altitude Martial Arts and I literally cannot even describe how great it was. All the girls were engaged and loving every moment of the class and my daughter even practiced what she learned the whole rest of the evening! They taught them effective methods for when/if they are ever bullied and emphasized that physically protecting yourself is important but the last option. I also really loved that all the coaches were strong and empowered women.read more

For us the determining factor is the communication. Me, my wife and our two kids train here and from the first day when we walked in to just look around, we’ve always had someone to talk to. Every single time we have a question about technique, strategy, philosophy or practical application someone is available. This is especially nice in regards to our children. We came to trust the coaches and the owners very quickly and have not regretted a moment spent at HAMA. I highly recommend!read more

My daughter started taking classes here about 3 months ago, and it has been great. All of the instructors are great with the kids, my daughter has learned a lot in a very short time. My daughter , before going to High Altitude, was very shy , quiet, and wouldn’t talk to people ( she is mildly autistic), but since she has been going to the gym she become very confident and outgoing. If you kids that are interested in martial arts this a great place for them to learnread more

I took a beginner kickboxing class free of charge after the manager reached out to me to invite me to the class. I absolutely loved it. The coach was great, the fellow classmates were very kind and respectful, and it’s a clean and well run facility. I will definitely be back for more kickboxing classes! If you’re wondering if you should try it out, I would highly recommend taking a trial class for an hour. Bring boxing gloves and/or hand wraps if you’ve got them!read more

High altitude is amazing. No matter how nervous you are to get in there and start, they will make you feel at home and will work with you in any area you need help. Extremely knowledgeable and experienced coaches and professors, effective methods, and boy do you get one heck of a workout in. On top of it all, they host tons of events that give you a chance to hangout with your new friends outside of the gym. I wish I could give them one star higher than we are allowed. A+read more

I have been training a majority of my life in Colorado Springs and was devastated thinking that I would never find a gym like the one I had in the Springs.....and then I walked into HAMA and found not only a place to train with amazing instructors, but I found my home away from home! Each instructor takes the time to make me feel a part of and ensures I'm growing in my martial arts journey. I also think it is so awesome that the owners of this gym, some of the top UFC coaches in the world, still take the time to teach classes and build lasting relationships with their students. So happy I walked through the doors of HAMA. Highly recommend to all experience levels ❤read more

I am glad that I found High Altitude Martial Arts. At first, I was unsure of the gym but decided to give it a shot and I am so glad that I did! As a wife and mother, I instantly felt comfortable after meeting some of the staff and observing some of the students participating in the classes that were in session. The instructors were very calming and thoroughly explained the instructions to the students that were new and inexperienced with patience and respect. The gym has a very family friendly atmosphere which was one of the reasons I decided to check out the gym. I looked at the schedule and noticed that they offered a variety of classes throughout the day, everything from kid’s classes to adult classes ranging from yoga to fitness oriented classes, and classes like boxing and grappling. The gym had a nice woman there who was very helpful in answering my questions. The instructors and gym staff are amazing, the students had high praise for the gym and everyone had a positive attitude when I visited. I will be coming back and am recommending this gym to my friends who are looking for a comfortable gym that cares about you as a person and not just another enrollment.read more
