Gracie Fernandina

“We have been going here for a year. My son loves it here! The owners Chris and Ashley are amazing to the kids and the other coaches there are amazing as well. You come here for the first time and while it may seem intimidating, you quickly become apart of the family. It helped with my sons confidence so much. He's doing better in school, much more respectful and is more humble. This place has changed our lives for the better.”

“This academy has been a great tool for our two boys in helping them learn self defense , self confidence , and self discipline. The coaches treat you like family and are amazing with the kids and adults a like. We have been going here for a few years now and we have had nothing but wonderful Experiences with the Gracie crew. They don't force you into competitions but do encourage everyone to try them out and you can tell that the coaches sincerely care about the kids getting the basics down and teaching every generation that walks into this academy!”

“Gracie Fernandina Jiu Jitsu is an outstanding place to train, learn, and grow—both on and off the mat. The instructors are knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly welcoming to students of all ages and experience levels. They foster a supportive, respectful environment where everyone is encouraged to improve at their own pace. Whether you’re looking to learn self-defense or join a strong, family-oriented community, this is the place to be. Highly recommend!”

“The best thing I ever did for myself was join Gracie Fernandina. They have been the most supportive environment and have become like family. As intimidating as it was for both my daughter and myself to start this journey, I know we would have not have been as motivated to stay consistent if not for Coach Possum and Ashley. They are both amazing people and have created an amazing environment for all to learn and grow in.”

“This place deserves more than 5 stars! Coach Possum and Miss. Ashley are incredible. They provide such good support and instruction. Their classes have helped with self control, discipline and confidence in our child and they make it so fun for the kids while also teaching them amazing life skills. We highly recommend!”
