You Know You Should Get Stronger — But Where Do You Start?

Maybe you've never grappled a day in your life. Maybe you used to train or compete and life got in the way. Maybe you just want to know that if something ever happened, you could protect yourself and the people you love.

The problem usually isn't willpower. It's not knowing where a total beginner fits in a room full of experienced grapplers — and worrying you'll embarrass yourself trying to find out.

You're out of shape and every "get fit" plan you've tried has fizzled out by week three.
You don't know how to defend yourself and that quiet worry never fully goes away.
You're not sure you'd fit in — too old, too out of shape, too inexperienced, too intimidated.

Here's the truth: you shouldn't have to already be in shape to start getting in shape, and you shouldn't have to already know jiu-jitsu to learn it.

Why 10th Planet Denver

You're In The Right Room

We know walking into a jiu-jitsu gym for the first time is intimidating. Everyone else looks like they know what they're doing, and you don't want to be the person who slows the class down or gets hurt on day one. That feeling is normal — and it's exactly why we built this gym the way we did.

10th Planet Denver was founded by Conor Heun, a 3rd Degree Eddie Bravo Black Belt and retired professional MMA fighter. Conor has spent years teaching total beginners, nervous parents, weekend warriors, and serious competitors the same system — broken down so anyone can learn it, regardless of age, size, or athletic background.

That approach is why we've built a 4.9-star reputation across 364 Google reviews, and why our students stick around long after their first class.

The revolution begins with you.
The Plan

What Happens on Day One

We make it simple. Here's exactly what to expect when you walk in — no surprises.

1
Arrive 10 minutes early. Wear athletic clothes you can move in. Bring water. No uniform, no equipment, no experience required.
2
Meet the team. We'll introduce you around, show you the facility, and get you comfortable before class starts.
3
Take the class. You'll be coached through the warmup, technique instruction, and drills at your own pace. Nobody gets thrown to the wolves here.
4
Check in after class. We'll answer your questions, talk through your goals, and help you find the right path forward. No pressure, no hard sell.

"So happy this was the gym I picked. I know about 10th Planet because of Eddie Bravo and I couldn't have picked a better place to pick up BJJ. Conor is easy to talk to and all the other students were very welcoming. Great environment to walk into when you're coming in fresh and nervous."

"Visited 10P Denver while I was in town for work. Ali and Brian were very welcoming and had great attention to detail on the mat. The gym is very clean and has a bunch of amenities for students and visitors. The head coach was very welcoming and knowledgeable."

"I have known Conor since 10P was still synonymous to the bomb squad. His methodology and technique about the 10P system is exemplary. I would highly recommend if you are in the Denver area."

The Real Question

What Does Waiting Actually Cost You?

Every month you put this off is a month you're still out of shape, still unsure you could protect yourself, and still on the outside of a community that could become one of the best parts of your life.

If You Wait
  • Still out of shape, still starting over next year
  • No real self-defense skill if you ever needed it
  • Still on the sidelines, watching from a distance
  • The "someday" gym membership that never gets used
If You Start Today
  • Real skill and real confidence, one class at a time
  • A team that notices when you're not there
  • Genuine fitness that doesn't feel like a chore
  • A path all the way to your black belt, if you want it
