3rd Degree Black Belt under Master CAIQUE
I began training in martial arts decades ago. I started with Kenpo Karate and earned my Black Belt. When I enlisted in the United States Navy (Deep Sea Navy Diver), I saw Gracie Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for the very first time from Relson Gracie Black Belt, Phil Cardella. I had never been exposed to anything such as this art, and it truly transformed my life.
After my first class, I was hooked! I was stationed in Hawaii where Grandmaster Relson Gracie had a school. For those of you who don’t know, Relson Gracie is the son of the founder, Grandmaster Helio Gracie. Grandmaster Relson Gracie is the brother of Royce Gracie, the man most of you know from the first Ultimate Fighting Challenge (UFC).
It was truly awesome. I was learning Jiu-Jitsu straight from the source. There is this saying, “Water is always purest closest to the source.” I got to train and learn directly from one of the founders. It is one of those privileges that you only hear about sometimes. Life happens the way life happens, and I happened to be in the right place at the right time. Now, I am honored to be able to pass on my knowledge to you.

TESTIMONIALS
"Katharo Training Center is by far the best Jiu Jitsu school I’ve trained at in Colorado, having trained at Easton training center and High Altitude Martial Arts this school provides everything you would need for Jiu Jitsu. Professor Steve is a phenomenal coach and runs a top notch facility that is always clean!"

"Katharo is one of the best Jiu Jitsu gyms I've ever trained at and I've trained all over the world. Steve has helped me prepare for professional fights and helped me really love training Jiu Jitsu again.
All the instructors are great and knowledgable! They also have a great schedule to fit anyones life.
If you are in Colorado, I couldn't recommend a better gym to train at."

"I started my journey with Katharo about 2 months ago but was hooked from day 1. The other students are welcoming and forthcoming with knowledge and keeping your training partner safe is a priority for everyone. I overheard a brown belt talking about how they trained at 6 other gyms before landing with Katharo and that was because the head Professor Steve Hordinski teaches control over your opponent in a way that minimizes their ability to strike, making the jiu jitsu taught at Katharo relevant for actual self defense. There are many higher belts who are willing to roll and teach even the newest students. If you're thinking of starting BJJ this is the place to learn."

"This gym is fantastic. It is a very welcoming community stacked with top tier instructors. There is a disciplined culture of respect and mutual improvement here which helps you learn quickly and correctly. The owner/lead instructor, Steve, is an absolute legend and creates an excellent atmosphere to push your limits and become proficient in self-defense and jiu-jitsu. I am much better off for joining."

"I can't say enough good things about Katharo and their staff. To say Professor Steve is a mad scientist on the mats would be an understatement. Despite his high level of proficiency, his patience and respect for his students, regardless of skill level, is inspiring to say the least. All the other coaches are just as friendly and helpful, and always make new people feel welcome.
If you're looking for a challenging, yet inviting and light-hearted atmosphere to focus on nothing but improvement in yourself and those around you, come join us at Katharo. Walking in the door your first day is the hardest part of the journey, but I can tell you you'll create lasting friendships almost right away. Jiu-Jitsu is for everyone!"
