Wisdom from Our Community
“Walking into Mountain Martial Arts at age 13, I was looking for confidence and practical self-defense through Jiujitsu. Fifteen years later, I can confidently say this dojo gave me that and so much more – it fundamentally shaped who I am.
Training in Hawaiian Jiujitsu here has been about far more than throws and locks. It’s where I learned real life: communication that builds bridges, leadership that empowers others, work ethic that pushes through challenges, and problem-solving skills that apply everywhere. The confidence I gained extends far beyond the mat; it’s a quiet strength I carry daily.
Most importantly, Mountain Martial Arts became my second family. The instructors fostered an environment of respect, support, and genuine growth. They didn’t just teach techniques; they invested in me as a person. The camaraderie among students is unmatched – we challenge each other, celebrate each other, and grow together.
If you’re looking for authentic Martial Arts instruction in Littleton that builds practical skills and transforms you from the inside out, look no further. Mountain Martial Arts isn’t just a place to train; it’s a community that helps you build a stronger, more capable, and confident version of yourself, for life.”

“As a woman of smaller stature, I came to Mountain Martial Arts as a teenager seeking real self-defense – not sport, not ego, and definitely not a ‘jock’ environment. After fourteen years immersed in this art. It became a sanctuary where practicality meets profound personal growth.
What truly sets Mountain Martial Arts apart is its unwavering commitment to the core principle of Danzan Ryu: The Perfection of Character. This isn’t just a slogan; it’s the bedrock of the culture. The instructors embody this. They foster an environment of deep respect, humility, and mutual support. Arrogance simply doesn’t thrive here – the art itself and the way it’s taught gently but firmly weed it out. You learn to defend yourself physically, but you also learn respect for yourself and others.
The instruction is exceptional – practical, effective techniques tailored to work regardless of size or strength, taught with clarity, patience, and a genuine focus on real-world application. They meet you where you are and help you grow, both as a martial artist and as a person. The community they’ve cultivated is incredible: welcoming, supportive, and devoid of ego. It has become an extended family.
If you want something that stands apart from Brazilian Jiujitsu, teaches genuine self-defense, and cultivates character in a truly respectful environment, Mountain Martial Arts in Englewood is the place. It’s perfect for anyone, especially those seeking practical skills without the bravado.”

“When I started Jiu-Jitsu (or Jujitsu), I sought confidence and self-defense through the Danzan Ryu style–a combination of Hawaiian and Japanese Jiujitsu . Years later, this art—and this dojo—taught me that the true strength of this art isn’t just about protection: it’s about restoration. The seamless integration of Seifukujutsu-massage (restorative healing arts) into the curriculum transformed my understanding of what a martial art could be.
Learning joint locks and throws felt empowering, but studying anatomy, massage, and energy work shifted everything. My hands learned not just how to defend, but how to heal—how to realign joints in an emergency, ease muscle tension, or support a training partner’s recovery. This philosophy of ‘helping others’ became as vital as any throw. ‘Kokua’ (the Hawaiian spirit of service/giving) wasn’t abstract; it was in the way we practiced both martial technique and compassionate healing.
This duality reshaped me:
As a woman, I gained confidence in my ability to protect and nurture.
As a human, I learned that power carries responsibility—to harm only when necessary, and to heal whenever possible.
As a student, I found a family committed to wholeness: where fists open into helping hands, and respect extends beyond the mat.
If you seek a martial art that honors the full spectrum of human strength—one where combat and compassion coexist—Mountain Martial Arts offers something rare. Jiu-Jitsu here isn’t just fighting; it’s the art of becoming whole.”
