With two locations serving the Greater Houston Area (Magnolia and Cypress), the gym provides professional BJJ classes for women, kids, and adults in the Magnolia, Conroe, and The Woodlands communities. The academy emphasizes traditional Gracie Jiu-Jitsu lineage and techniques. Alexandro Ceconi is an inspiring example of dedication to the martial arts. Born and raised in Santa Catarina, Brazil, he worked as a car salesman while training Jiu-Jitsu during lunch breaks and evenings under Rilion Gracie, the youngest son of Carlos Gracie who founded Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. In 2011, Alexandro pursued MMA fighting professionally before achieving his dream of opening Ceconi BJJ, which has become known as "The Home of World Champions." The academy's mission is to empower smaller, weaker individuals to defend themselves against larger, stronger opponents through proper technique and leverage using takedowns, ground fighting, joint-locks, and chokeholds. Ceconi BJJ offers a clean, state-of-the-art facility with world-class coaches, individual attention, and a strong community bond. The gym provides group classes, private training sessions, and programs for all ages and skill levels, creating a transformative experience focused on both self-defense and fitness. **Status:** Active ## Contact Information **Address:** 33134 Magnolia Circle Magnolia, TX 77354, United States **Phone:** 713-594-8160 **Email:** train@ceconibjj.com **Website:** https://Ceconibjj.com **Social Media:** - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ceconibjj - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ceconibjj - YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ceconibjj ## Hours of Operation - Monday: 5:00 PM - 8:00 PM - Tuesday: 6:00 AM - 7:00 AM, 5:00 PM - 8:00 PM - Wednesday: 5:00 PM - 8:00 PM - Thursday: 6:00 AM - 7:00 AM, 5:00 PM - 8:00 PM - Friday: 5:00 PM - 8:00 PM - Saturday: 9:30 AM - 11:30 AM - Sunday: Closed ## Pricing ## Instructors ### Alexandro Ceconi - Black **Role:** Head Instructor **Bio:** Alexandro Ceconi was born in the Santa Catarina State, Brazil. He is a black belt under Rilion Gracie, the youngest son of Gracie Jiu Jitsu founder Carlos Gracie. Alexandro was still working as a car salesman, training his conditioning in the morning and training his Jiu Jitsu at lunch time and night time, until 2008 when he decided to turn professional. In December 2009 Ceconi made his MMA debut, submitting the “Furacão Fight Team” prospect Eder Junior with a first round armbar. Alexandre had his second MMA fight scheduled at the “Floripa Fight” event in April 2010, but had to postpone after winning the Gramado (Brazilian South) trials for the World Pro cup and consequently having to fight the final stage of the event in Abu Dhabi very close to that date. Continuing with his amazing run in 2010 he won the Brazilian National championship (also known as the Brasileiro) winning the tournament impressively even though he was suffering from tonsillitis. By the end of 2011 Alexandro Ceconi  left his old team (Rilion Gracie Academy) to open his own BJJ academy which he called Ceconi Team.
