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!!!

Pangea and Professor Iz are great. I used to cross train and many gyms across Denver, and after moving away to FL when I came to town to visit I stopped in for an open mat with the Pangea crew. The entire team was friendly and welcoming. Professor Iz was great, made you feel like you’d been training with them for years even after just meeting him for the first time. Very genuine and kept the gym pristine and clean. My Friend trains with Pangea and I have no doubt she’s in safe hands with the team. I have NO DOUBT if I moved back home I’d be signing up with Iz, and be part of the team. If you’re in the area looking for a drop in class, a place for your kids to train safely, or just trying to find a place to start. I highly recommend you start here. You won’t regret it. Thank you Iz for making me feel welcome, respected and tired from all the great rolls!

I absolutely love this Jiu Jitsu studio for my 10 year old son. It feels like a family and all the instructors, especially Ismael, love and treat the young students with a lot of personal attention, guidance, direction, structure, and mastery. The price is right and I really experience a high-quality professionalism. Would recommend to anyone.

I spent almost two years training at Pangea during my time in Denver and I can’t rate it high enough. If you’re new to Bjj or just looking for a change in atmosphere this is the place to train. Izzy the head coach is such a nice guy and genuinely wants to see you elevate your game. Even when I told him I was moving for work, the first thing he did was give me recommendations on places to train at in my new city which meant a lot to me. Everyone here is very respectful and is happy to meet you at your level during training no matter your age or skill level. If you want fun relaxed classes with hard rolls check out Pangea.
