Gracie Barra St Peters Mo Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Self Defense

“My kids have been in Jiu Jitsu here for about two years since we moved to the St. Louis/St. Charles, Missouri area. The classes are outstanding and the coaches/professors engage and challenge the kids (and adults) to improve incrementally with each class. The balance of sparring, endurance training, and listening has been helpful for my kids inside and outside of class. Jiu Jitsu helps with mental focus, discipline, teamwork, sportsmanship, competitive spirit, and, most importantly, GRIT! There is great excitement when one of my kids receives a stripe and advances in their knowledge of Jiu Jitsu. With cyber-bullying, and social media shaming continuing to grow as social media becomes more engrained on our society, I feel that St. Peter’s Gracie Barra Jiu Jitsu arms my children with a disciplined mind, physical strength, and effective defense to thrive in any situation presented to them in life. Highly recommend!”

“We love Gracie Barra St. Peter’s! All 3 of my kiddos do BJJ here and we love it! We have been members for a little over a year and have loved our time here! The community is awesome and the training is top notch! My oldest son who has taken BJJ to the competitive level in his first year has been dominating in competition, even against kids who have been training for years longer than him! We attribute this to the high level of training from Professor Dennis!”

“Update: Still going strong and loving his classes months later! My son has been in classes for a few weeks and is loving it. The teachers/trainers are great with the children and take time to make sure all of them get a great experience.”

“Great place to learn jiu-jitsu! Can't recommend this place enough. All of the professors are great, and there is a great culture here. If you're thinking about starting jiu-jitsu, this is the place to go!”

“My husband, son, daughter, and self have trained with Gracie Barre Jui Jitsu. We love the newer St Peter's location. Professor Dennis and all the coaches are great to work with. My daughter and I love the women's class on Thursday nights! I have really seen my daughter's self-confidence, grit, and resilience grow. And for myself, never having done anything like this before, it's hard work, fun, and very rewarding!”
