Gracie Barra Queen Creek Jiu Jitsu and Self Defense

“We just started and my kids love it. The environment and culture is very welcoming. Well kept gym and great coaches. Highly recommend.”

“My kids love having Jiu-jitsu class. Sadly the kids lost their uniforms there, but they have been able to borrow one for class. The receptionist is very helpful and understanding and everyone is really helpful and great.”

“This place has been a huge blessing in our family’s lives, especially our son! The coaches are great and the focus is always on growth/development and not on “learning how to fight.” I love the camaraderie here, as everyone, from the coaches to the students, works together to help each other become better!”

“So happy we joined! Our oldest started a month ago and loves it. Our youngest can’t wait to turn 4 so he can jump in. Coaches are great, can’t say enough!”

“This is an outstanding addition to the Gracie Barra family. The culture this group of amazing people have created is unique in every way. The instructors, coaches, students and families have built such a supportive and embracing environment that it is not just a school it is without a doubt a family. Several years ago my son asked me to start Jiu Jitsu with him. Without hesitation I said yes because I was honored and flattered that he would want me to begin this journey with him. It only took a few moments after saying yes for me to start thinking "what did I get myself into". I had some doubts building like, "I hadn't done any athletic training in so long" and "I'm older now, I know nothing about jiu jitsu". When it came time for our class my son and I entered the door of Gracie Barra and immediately we were welcomed by Paula and Professor Lucas. Soon after that other coaches and students introduced themselves and just like that we both felt at home! Everyone had been so eager to help and coach us on techniques and giving us praise and direction always. The students, coaches, Professors and families all truly have the same goals for everyone which is to help each other improve and support each other in order to lift everyone up together. I am now 50 years old and Jiu Jitsu is a major part of my life and will be always. I want to thank my Gracie Barra Family and I can not wait to see all of the new family members of the Queen Creek location experience this very special bond!”
