“It's literally the best gym EVER. Such an amazing group of people who just want to help each other build and grow as you continue through your journey. A very down to Earth community, one that you want to be a part of.”

Co-founder and owner, Delta Grappling Academy
Jim started jiu-jitsu in 2017 and co-founded Delta in 2020, when he and his training partners refused to let a pandemic end their training.
Jim Krebs began Brazilian jiu-jitsu in 2017. In 2020, at the height of the Covid pandemic, most gyms were closed. Jim and his training partners kept going anyway, with guidance from local black belts through virtual resources.
That stubbornness became the foundation of Delta Grappling Academy. The academy opened to members with a physical gym in June 2020, in partnership with Joe Studer of VO2 Fitness. Jim earned his blue belt that October and has kept climbing since; he's now a three-stripe brown belt and one of Delta's owners.
He describes the journey as full of ups and downs, carried by the camaraderie of his partners and everyone who has joined Delta along the way.
Bio to add: What Jim does outside the gym, what he loves about teaching, and any competition or promotion milestones.
