Gracie Barra Jiu-Jitsu Road Northeast Albuquerque New Mexico

“Easily one of the greatest dojos ever. Prof Russ is one of the kindest and wisest martial arts teachers I have ever come across. Coach Geoff is amazing at breaking down the steps and giving personal attention to everyone he trains. Enrique makes it feels like “Cheers” every time we walk in. As that full team with all the other coaches, like Ben, I can get INCREDIBLE instruction, hard rolls without injuries, and great friends. Not only do I roll, but all of my family roll and laugh here. Need that thing in your life to pick you up, loss weight and make you strong… it isn’t just the BJJ, it’s the people.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Finding a sport your child loves is important—but finding a gym where your child is truly valued is everything. Jozlyn has been training under Professor Russel for several years now and he has always been amazing! My daughter Jozlyn recently experienced a setback due to an injury, and we had to temporarily freeze her account. Instead of just waiting things out, her professor, Russel, reached out personally and offered something that meant the world to her—he invited her to step in as a junior coach so she could stay involved and feel supported during her recovery. This gesture wasn’t just thoughtful—it was impactful. Jozlyn told me, “Mom, I love that Professor Russel cares about me so much.” Today, she was able to cautiously return to training, and with her professor’s encouragement, she earned another stripe. It was an emotional moment knowing how much this sport and this gym mean to her. I am forever grateful for the care, mentorship, and heart Professor Russel continues to show. If you’re looking for a place where your child is more than just another student—this is it. Thank you for being a part of Jozlyn’s journey. ❤️💪”

“Unfortunately they promised a 30-day refund in case we're not satisfied with the training, when I went to cancel membership of my two sons they completely denied. Coach Nate initially promised that then came up with a totally different version. Very unhappy with their dishonesty. I am a very unsatisfied customer.”

“Gracie Barra Albuquerque has changed my life. Like many people, I was initially nervous about training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. But the moment I stepped in the door I felt welcome, supported, and safe. Whether you want to learn bjj for self defense, fitness or to become a world champion competitor, Professor Amadeu and Enrique at GB Albuquerque will work with you to build a program that aligns with your goals. And once you start integrating this amazing practice into your life, you’ll never be the same! Trust me, your mind, body and spirit will grow and evolve in ways you never thought possible. I strongly encourage everyone regardless of their age, fitness level, gender (excellent for women!), etc to come take a few classes and join the GB family!”
