The HIstory of the world's most Effective Martial Art.
The most traditional form of BJJ taught in Overland Park is gi jiu jitsu. It is a style that was popularized by a Japanese man named Mitsuyo Maeda in the early 1900’s. Misuyo was a martial arts expert that traveled the globe looking to find challenges to his prowess as a martial artist. He traveled through the US, South America and Europe before finally settling in Brazil where he met Carlos Gracie. Gracie was a brother to 8 other siblings who developed the same love for the martial arts that we all share today. The smallest of the Gracie brothers, Helio Gracie, was a technical genius responsible for many of the developments of modern-day jiu jitsu. Skip forward to 1993, and Royce Gracie has entered the first-ever Ultimate Fighting Championship, an event pitting the worlds best martial arts masters against each other. His dominant performance launched the Gracie name and their jiujitsu to new heights in the martial arts world and is responsible for its popularity and success today. Right here in Overland Park, we are a direct descendent of the Gracie Jiu Jitsu lineage. From Carlos and Mitsuo came Rolls Gracie, from Rolls came Romero Calvalcanti, from Romero came Raul Jimenez, and from Raul, our lead instructors Charlie Tietgen, and Fernando Herrera.

I have been going to E3 Jiu Jitsu now for 1 year. From the first moment you walk through the doors everyone here makes you feel like you’ve always been here. So welcoming and kind are the owners. You don’t need to know a thing about Jiu Jitsu. Charlie is an amazing instructor trained by world class Jiu Jitsu champions. You will not only lose weight and get in the best shape of your life, but you will also learn proper self-defense as well. My 10 year old daughter also does Jiu Jitsu here and she loves learning with the other kids in her classes. A great place to train martial arts with some of the best people I know. I can’t think of any other gym I would want to continue my Jiu Jitsu journey with. Do yourself a favor and give this martial arts academy a try.

I’ve been training the grappling art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu here in Overland Park for about 5 months and the whole facility and staff are very friendly and great. It’s family friendly and the martial arts training is great. Regardless of your skill level you’ll feel right at home and welcomed as well. The facility is great, the bathrooms have a shower, there’s plenty of mat space, they’ve got plenty of heavy bags to practice your striking in kickboxing, and they have a microwave and refrigerator to store your post-workout shakes and other items.

I cannot stress enough how great everyone here is. There are kids that are 5 year old in the kids classes and the instructor takes his time to be sure everyone is learning at their own pace. My daughter asks me every day if she has class that night because she loves martial arts so much. For adult martial arts classes the instructor makes sure everyone understands the drills. It’s great exercise and you learn something while exercising. It’s more than a business, it’s a genuine community from the first moment you walk in the door. They are definitely doing great things for everyone in Overland Park.

Very affordable price, quality facilities with a great location in Overland Park. Charlie is amazing with my young child who is very shy and nervous. His enthusiasm and excitement ensures he develops a love for the martial arts. He has a great time when he gets over his nerves!

Their dedication to the martial arts is readily apparent, training themselves and their team to maximize every ounce of performance possible. Their leadership is guiding our team to success in every aspect of competition and fitness. Your martial arts instructors should be able to defend themselves, and should be able to demonstrate this at any time. Our athletes show this ability every time they step into our academy. We develop these same skills in our Overland Park students through tested techniques instilled in us through competitors at a true world class level. Professor Roberto Jimenez has personally crafted our Overland Park staff into competent professionals ready to guide all of our Overland Park martial arts students to success in all of their endeavors.
