As the highest-ranked Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Instructor in the Southwest, I am honored to guide you through this journey. We have classes designed for everyone - beginners, seasoned martial artists, fitness enthusiasts, and individuals of all ages and genders.

For over 40 years, my brothers (Roger, Jean Jacques, and John) and I have been carrying forward a martial arts legacy passed down from our uncle, the late master Carlos Gracie, one of the founders of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. We honor this legacy by teaching the intricate techniques of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with lessons in humility and service, encapsulated in our motto “LEAVE YOUR EGO AT THE DOOR”.

Here at Carlos Machado Jiu-Jitsu, we see Martial Arts, especially Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, as a catalyst for personal improvement and a healthier, more balanced lifestyle. We provide an opportunity for you to boost your confidence, acquire new skills, and become part of a martial arts legacy. All you need to do is show up, start learning, and you'll begin seeing results within weeks.

Our classes are:

We pride ourselves on our high-energy, fast-paced classes. They offer an authentic approach to learning Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, equipping you with realistic self-defense skills and improving your fitness and stamina.
