LOOKING FOR A DAYTIME WELLNESS INSTRUCTOR

We have some open space at High Country Jiu Jitsu in Poncha Springs during mornings and lunchtime, and we'd love to put it to good use.

We're especially interested in connecting with a yoga instructor who may be looking for a place to build their own classes, but we're open to other wellness or movement-based ideas too.

If that sounds like you, or you know someone who might be a good fit, please send us a message. We'd love to connect!

We’re proud to recognize Levi as our High Country Jiu Jitsu Student of the Month.
Levi consistently shows what it means to be a great teammate on and off the mats. He comes to class ready to learn, puts in the work, and stays focused on improving every day. What really stands out is his willingness to help others—whether it’s encouraging teammates, being a great training partner, or setting a positive example for the room.
Levi’s commitment to bettering himself and supporting those around him is exactly what we value at High Country Jiu Jitsu. Keep up the great work.

At our kids jiu jitsu program, we’re not just teaching martial arts—we’re helping kids build confidence, discipline, and real-life skills that carry far beyond the mat.

Jiu jitsu gives kids a positive outlet for their energy while teaching them how to stay calm under pressure, solve problems, and respect others. It’s one of the few activities where smaller, less athletic kids can truly shine by learning technique and strategy.

If your child isn’t currently involved in sports or structured activities, this is a great place to start. No experience needed. No pressure to be “good” right away. Just a supportive environment where they can grow, make friends, and challenge themselves.

We’re proud to serve families all across Chaffee County—everyone is welcome. And to make it easy to get started, your child’s first 2 classes are completely free.

Come try it out and see the difference for yourself.

Congratulations, Eli!!! Keep up the great work.

We’re proud to recognize Riley Skaja as our Kids Program Student of the Month!

Riley has been showing up consistently, putting in the work, and bringing a great attitude to every class. Whether it’s drilling techniques, helping teammates, or pushing through challenges, he’s been a great example of what it means to grow on and off the mats.

What really stands out is Riley’s focus and willingness to learn—he listens, applies feedback, and keeps improving every week. That kind of effort is exactly what we love to see in our students.

Keep it up, Riley—we’re excited to see your continued progress!

School’s almost out—just a couple weeks left—and if you’ve got kids at home, you already know what’s coming… a lot of extra energy 😅

Summer is one of the best times to get into jiu jitsu. For kids, it gives them something structured to show up to, helps build confidence, and burns off that energy in a positive way.

And it’s not just for kids—if you’re an adult who’s been thinking about trying something new, getting in shape, or just stepping out of your comfort zone a bit, this is a great time to start too.

If you’ve been curious, come check it out. Your first 2 classes are free—just send us a message or stop by and we’ll get you started.
