Gracie Barra Celebration / Martial Arts School

“The kids class is a bit overcrowded for the space they have available. Rather than deal with this problem administratively, such as splitting up into smaller classes, separating skill levels, etc... the head coach seems to have adopted an unfortunate policy of encouraged attrition to reduce class size. For the most part, my six year old enjoyed their several months in the class, and developed some strong bonds with other very capable and empathetic coaches, volunteers, and students. In the end, though, I would rather find a place where my child is allowed to smile and enjoy running a lap, or is able to express displeasure at being kicked in the head, or is not singled out because they don't talk like others, or is not repeatedly penalized for the same contrived offense, or is able to be a kid like all the other kids around the room.”

“Great jujitsu academy. My son has really grown so much with his technique. He loves Gracie’s barra celebration and has made a lot of progress since he joined this location. The staff is great and friendly and coaches are really nice and committed in helping the students. We love it here.”

“I’ve been training at Gracie Barra Celebration for almost a year now and I have nothing but good things to say about the school, the instructor, and my training partners. The culture of any gym always stems from the instructor. At GB Celebration Professor Rodrigo is always very friendly, patient, and offers top notch detailed instruction. I would highly recommend this gym for anyone interested in either trying jiu-jitsu or for more experienced players.”

“Thank you to Professor Rodrigo and all members of Gracie Barra for welcoming us to train while in town from out of state. The training and facilities were outstanding and the members are very talented and friendly. We definitely recommend training here for anyone in the Celebration area. Thank you guys again! We will see you again next time! 🙂”

“I visited Gracie Barra BJJ in Celebration while on a family vacation. The school, instructors and students were top notch. Before I arrived I was able to text the instructors and ask questions and they always responded timely, sometimes immediately. The gym is very clean, organized and welcoming. Even the other students were very kind and welcoming. I always try to drop in to a BJJ class when traveling and this one ranks as one of my favorites! Chad”
