Gracie Barra Ahwatukee Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Self Defense

“GB Ahwatukee has something for everyone. Positive environment, family friendly atmosphere, people who are genuine and genuinely caring, and high level competitive BJJ. I got my daughter involved because of how great Professor Luis and Josie are with the kids. And when I saw how well she was doing, and witnessed the adult classes with the skill and proficiency being taught, I knew I needed to get involved too. It’s been a great journey for both of us and it’s only getting started. We are very grateful for Professor Luis, Coach Josie, Professor Roiter and Professor Italo and all the students for the great school, wonderful training and good relationships!!”

“Was such a great family atmosphere. There’s tons of mat space and the classes were a lot of fun to learn from. The instructors are knowledgeable, welcoming, and really make you feel part of the team.”

“I enjoyed joining in some classes as I was in the area. I experienced easy to follow instruction and it was very fun, while they are welcoming to new students and encouraged growth and activity. I could see it being easy to want to continue this practice with these instructors if I would have not moved out of the area.”

“My granddaughters are apart of this school. They love going to class. They beg me to take them to class. Every time I take them, the Professors and Coaches are so kind and always welcoming”

“Highly recommend this school for all ages, levels, and experience. My son has been doing Jiu-Jitsu for 2 and a half years and started when we was 3 years old and I’ve seen his progress and how positively it has impacted him and his confidence. We loved it so much that I also signed up my daughter as soon as she turned 3 and she has been training now for 4 months. The coaches and professors are great! They know each kid’s name (I don’t know how they do it) and understand each of their needs and how much to push them to get get better. We love Gracie Barra Ahwatukee!!”
