It doesn’t matter what walk of life you come from, this place can make your life better. I’ve trained here for years. They’ve always been accommodating of the various schedules I’ve had. There is also a great community and a ton of support if you want it from the coaches. I’ve learned all about Jiu Jitsu here, it’s one of the more developed academies in Colorado. However, I’ve also learned about life, happiness and inner peace.

My kids started last summer and my daughter loves it. The coaches are great and you feel like part of a family. I do the ladies class on Sunday with my daughter and love it. I highly recommend it all the ladies.

I was visiting Longmont from out of town and decided to check out Dark Horse. I dropped in for an open mat and everybody was super friendly and the place was very accommodating and clean. I would definitely recommend checking it out if you’re in the area and am looking forward to stopping by again next time I’m in town.

My son and I train here. It's the only gym I've trained at, but I've never wanted to train anywhere else over the last 2 years. Great training and even better people.

This place is the real deal! Such an awesome community, incredible coaches, and a great varied schedule. If you’re curious about jiu jitsu, want to learn what it’s about, or are experienced and looking to put down roots, this is 200% the place to do it.

2 months in and my boys are hooked! One would think that the coaches In the children's class have an education in early childhood development, because of the way they interact with the students. Always so encouraging and engaging. When I get the chance I enjoy watching their classes, it's always fun and entertaining. I don't feel like my family is treated like a number But rather we feel more like part of their family. It's like a breath of fresh air in this crazy commercialized world that we live in now.

I started BJJ at Dark Horse in 2010. It's been a transformational experience and I didn't realize when I walked in the door how much Jiu Jitsu would change my life for the better. Professor Dudderar's instruction and leadership are second to none. It's a clean and welcoming academy, my kids have grown up training there, and I have made countless freinds in the combat sports community through my journey at Dark Horse and as a Jiu Jitsu practitioner. If you're thinking of trying it out, just do it. It could transform your life.

I'm so grateful for Dark Horse, it is such a positive impact in my life. In the 6 months since my 6 year old son and I have joined, I've seen so much mental, spiritual, and physical growth in both of us. The coaches are full of knowledge, patience, and passion for jiu-jitsu. Everyone at Dark Horse is so supportive of eachother no matter what your goals are. I just can't put into words how appreciative I am for Dark Horse and every single person I have met there. I have found a new passion, great friends, and self confidence.

Dark horse is an amazing place to start or continue your fitness/life skills journey. Extremely knowledgeable professor's and coaches dedicated in helping you grow and excel at the classes you are attending. To anyone wondering if this school is worth it, In my experience so far, this is the best place to battle depression, lose weight, and meet supportive people while having fun doing it. You also are gaining priceless knowledge every time you step foot into the building. Their kids self defense program is unlike anything our family has experienced, super engaging and encouraging for the children. Wish we would have made the choice to join years ago.

My ten year old has been coming here for 3 months and we couldn't be happier! After trying 3 different martial arts schools, we were thrilled to find Dark Horse! The classes are really fun for the kids but well structured, intense, and organized extremely well. The teachers are so knowledgeable and help the students one-on-one all the time. My kid LOVES coming to class. Along with learning the most useful martial arts out there, they also put a huge focus on character development. This place is a true gem!

Never thought I would like Jiu Jitsu. Didn’t wrestle in school. Close to middle aged, overweight, and out of shape. Needed something active during/after Covid. Decided to try Darkhorse and so thankful I did. This place is like a family. They support you in your goals and everyone is supportive when you first start and feel all awkward. There is no pressure to compete but there are coaches to support you if you want to compete. If this was an ultra competitive “gym” it wouldn’t be right for me, but I absolutely love this place (3 days a week, for 6 months now, trying to get healthy and learn some skills along the way are my goals).

I’ve been training a dark horse for about a year now. No jujitsu experience prior to that. It has been a great experience! Great coaches and staff!
