People Love Us

My son started out with curiosity of the sport and took a couple free lessons to see how he'd do and how the gym conducted business. He is now a year in and loves it. The professors and coaches (instructors) are very passionate about jiu-jitsu and love to teach. They take the time to make sure instructions are clear and work with all ages and experiences. You will not be disappointed if you or your child are looking at a sport/discipline that will be beneficial in so many ways.

The Professors and coaches bring a high level of skill sets and effective techniques. The kids train and share their knowledge so that everyone can rise to the highest levels of competition excellence. I highly recommend this place and will continue to grow here!

Tim P

My 6 year old son just finished his free lessons, and before we left we made sure to sign him up. All of the coaches are so friendly and welcoming. The other students are super respectful and make sure that they let the newer kids learn. Just a great atmosphere all around. My son has been super excited to go, and can't wait for the next class. 100% recommend Gracie Barra

At GB, we're like family! I have been a member over a year. It's an overall amazing place to learn and train BJJ. Instructors have a strong and committed passion for instructing BJJ. Also, they have excellent trouble shooting skills that are vital while preparing for competition. If you want to get fit, gain confidence and learn self-defense, then Gracie Barra is the place to be. I wouldn't train in BJJ anywhere else!!
