Gracie Barra South Boise Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Self-Defense

“Great training. The class instruction was on point. Clean mats and bathrooms. If you want a great atmosphere and great place to train in Boise. This is the place to be.”

“At the end of 2021 we made the decision to enroll our son with the hopes that he would overcome a lot of his own insecurities, and fears. I knew it would take a lot of work from us as parents to keep encouraging our very shy and timid son to keep on going, and really trying to learn the art. The path was rough at the beginning, my son would shut down and refuse to learn, even after all the support and encouragement we gave him. This is when I found out that this team really care for the kids, the teacher and coaches would sit down with my son while he was completely shut down and on the floor, motivating him, encouraging him, giving him the extra life lessons that I couldn’t. Effectively helping me raise my son more properly, the team help my son get out of his shell a bit more and gain the confidence he needed to conquer some of his fears. The process was never easy, thanks to Professor Felipe, Professor Corey, Coach Mike, Coach Eric, and the entire team that helped me raise my son, we’ve seen him become a more confident, funny, and great kid. Still shy but confident my son is now also doing the Muai Thai training, with BJJ as well. We express our gratitude to them and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone, and we’ve been recommending to struggling parents. I hope this reach the right people and give this team a chance, do not give up as is not easy instead endure the process and this team will be there for you every step of the way. Thank you!”

“Excellent Brazilian Jujitsu academy from the owners to the professors and coaches. The GBSB family provide a friendly and welcoming academy. We couldn’t have chosen a better team to begin her love for the art of jiujitsu. 10/10”

“Amazing coaches and professors in both jiu jitsu and muy thai. I love this place and whenever I'm away I miss them. It's about the people and the way they make the challenges both safe and fun.”

“This place is amazing for kids. The BJJ coaches are great and make sure to keep enough discipline that they are learning but also makes it really fun. It’s such a growing experience for them socially and with the confidence to defend themselves. This program will help to toughen kids up but also makes sure they learn control. The coaches are totally on top of things the entire time, give each kid individual attention, and create an amazing environment for them for learn and grow. They Muay Thai is also great and he’s amazing with children. 100% recommend and we will be members here for life. We drive in, it’s totally worth the drive.”
