We’ve been going to this class for a little over a month now for our son! And let me tell you the confidence he’s gotten he loves coming to the class and learning new techniques! What’s stands out to me is that although the coaches and professors haves a bunch of students they still manage to know everyone’s names which makes it more personal for me which I love and the actual help they do versus just standing around and watching if they see you doing something incorrect or don’t understand they will help you out without getting irritated we love Gracie barra

My 4 year old son loves coming here for his class. I appreciate how patient and attentive everyone is with him. It has really helped him socialize and come out of his shell.

I’ve been training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu here for approximately 6 months now. I’ve been to a couple of other places where I’ve trained gi and no gi as well. This gym is definitely top tier all around. The lessons are taught at a pace where everyone can learn safely. Professors Mike and Josh are very knowledgeable, professional, consistent and caring towards everyone. Children, teens and adults all train here and you can tell that everyone is growing/has grown into great people with the leadership of GB Avondale. I won a gold medal in my first tournament as a white belt. This place has definitely changed my life for the better. Highly recommended.

The best bjj school in the area, I highly recommend this school, my son trained there for just over two years and it was amazing, very good training system, a lot of support and dedication from Professor Michael Bruner and his team of coaches, very professional. An excellent team and a great atmosphere. Very satisfied and grateful. They always made us feel part of the big GB family. I really appreciate it. Excellent place to train BJJ. Don't hesitate to come train with them.
