Who We Are at
Tribus Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Our School
Our Jiu-Jitsu academy has a student-centric culture, focusing on inclusivity, personal development, and community engagement. We combine strong friendships between all members, social gatherings, and high-level training. That’s what makes us who we are. On the mat, we believe every Jiu-Jitsu class matters. With our Kaizen approach, students become 1% better every session – and those gains stack fast. Expect smoother technique, stronger endurance, sharper thinking, and growing confidence in your rolling game. This is in all our classes. Beyond traditional adult and kids Jiu-Jitsu classes, we deliver: homeschool curriculum, senior mobility classes, women’s-only sessions, after-school, and competition prep – all tailored to diverse needs. You will be able to train in our purpose-built training space. We have clean mats, modern gear, family lounge, and a professional atmosphere designed for safety, comfort, and inspiration. Come join us and see what you can become at Tribus Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu!
History
We at Tribus Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu opened our Jiu-Jitsu academy with the goal to help others. Our entire team has all trained under Jacare Cavalcanti. This includes our two owners Matt Daniel and Chuck Mason, our academy manager, Jessica Cooke, and our head instructor, Trenton Cooke. They are all working together to make Tribus the best place to train. That starts on the mat with lessons taught by Trenton, a 3rd Degree Black Belt. Trenton started training in December 2008 and quickly started teaching in 2010. After 7 years of training, he took home the Gold at IBJJF Pan Ams in 2015. Nevertheless, his greatest personal achievement in Jiu-Jitsu has been promoting his first student from White Belt to Black Belt in 2023. Those are the stories that matter to us, and we hope to create many more as we go.
