Gracie Barra Maricopa Brazilian JiuJitsu

“A fantastic gym that will make you feel welcome even when starting from the ground floor. I quickly had enough of a BJJ game to roll with people of all skill levels (to learn). Joining this gym built confidence, health, strength, and it’s a supportive social atmosphere. Could not recommend it enough!”

“I’m disappointed with my experience at this location. I scheduled a free class through the Gracie Barra website—I didn’t just walk in randomly. The first time I came, I was excited but nervous, only to find the doors locked. I figured it was just an off day and didn’t think much of it. I rescheduled for another class, but when I showed up again, no one was there. You’d expect that if you make an appointment, your professor would be there, or at the very least, you’d receive an email or notification about any changes. It was frustrating, especially since Gracie Barra promotes that jiu-jitsu is for everyone, but this location seems to be lacking in organization and communication. I’m rating it 1 stars because I feel bad and I’m sure the night classes are great, with attentive teachers. However, I chose morning classes because I work full-time nights, so mornings are my only option. If this location isn’t open in the mornings, they shouldn’t list those times on the schedule. Please consider updating your hours to reflect actual availability. Why would you advertise something then not follow through very upsetting and disappointed 🤷‍♀️”

“So far it's been a good experience. My son started in May and I started about a month ago. Professor Vincent is a solid teacher. As well as his other coaches.”

“My two boy (4 and 8) have been coming here for a couple months now and it's been great. The professor and coaches are really nice and patient with the kids. My younger son does it for fun, while my 8 yr old has competed twice now. It really is for everyone. The atmosphere is great. It's fun seeing new kids come in shy and then coming out of their shell after a few classes. If you are thinking about it, just do it. We are glad we did.”

“Great place to start and/or advance you jiujitsu skills. Professor Vincent is fantastic. Great knowledge and amazing teacher. Gracie Barra Maricopa Brazilian JiuJitsu is great for the whole family. I love training there and my kids love training there. Schedules are supper accommodating to fit any work schedule.”
