For years, Phoenix Down Jiu Jitsu has helped hundreds of students in Cedar Rapids build confidence, discipline, and lifelong friendships through Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
We are excited to share that we have officially joined Mission Athletics!
While our name has changed, our commitment to exceptional coaching, a welcoming culture, and helping students become the best version of themselves remains exactly the same.
In fact, it's even better.
Students now enjoy everything that made Phoenix Down special, plus access to expanded training space, strength and conditioning, recovery amenities, wrestling, skill development, and in the premier training facility in the Midwest.
