Gracie Barra Palm Desert

“Gracie Barra palm desert is such an amazing Brazilian Jiu jitsu academy. I have been training here for about 2 years and have always felt welcome, safe and is a place of encouragement. Professor Elias Ramirez III is an amazing teacher. Never short staffed. All the coaches are great, knowledgeable, and patient, with the kids and teens. I highly recommend.”

“This gym is amazing. We would pass by fairly often, but because of it's location it's easy to overlook (it's across the street from Stater Brothers on Varner). It wasn't until we needed to find an established Gracie Barra Jui Jitsu gym in the desert, that we found out about Gracie Barra Palm Desert. We intended to do a walk-in, just to get a feel for the place, but ended up doing a full on trial with the rest of the class! They were very patient in explaining the techniques to my son and made it a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Needless to say, we signed up that day. The pricing is pretty fair and straightforward. Expect to pay a bit more for the first month's fee since you'll be buying this cool looking blue Gi you see in the photos (my son loves his). There's also a nice block of weekly training sessions so it should end up a worthwhile investment if you're serious about going every week. If you're not sure about where to start with your martial arts journey, look no further than these guys right here!”

“We love Gracie Barra Palm Desert! My husband, son, and I have been training here since it opened and love the family atmosphere of this school. The professor is knowledgable, encouraging, and makes it fun. You get a lot more than just a class a couple of times a week. You get a team, a family, and a sense of belonging to something bigger. GB is great for people of all ages - kids to older adults!”

“Excellent training for Jiu-jitsu! Professors are very engaging in kids' classes and have lots of extra help when there's a lot of kids.”

“We couldn’t be happier with our kids’ experience here! The coaches and professor are fantastic with the children, blending discipline with encouragement in a way that really inspires confidence. They are patient and knowledgeable. They make sure each child feels supported while challenging them to improve. It’s been amazing to see the growth in our kids, both physically and mentally. Our kids look forward to each class and have gained so much confidence and discipline. We’re grateful to have found such an excellent place for them to learn! Highly recommend them.”
