“My teen son started training here a few months ago. He learned much fast and now has a lot of confidence. He describes the atmosphere as inclusive with a chill vibe that makes him comfortable. Other schools we tried did not have the welcoming feeling and just let bigger people beat up on him. Now he can take his own Dad out in a microsecond. Thank God they teach mercy too! I may have to start taking classes to remind him I am still the boss lol. Anyway, great school if you are looking to take classes for yourself or your child. Oh and Rickson Gracie himself even came in a few times to so special classes at no extra charge!!! My son was star struck and was talking about it for days!”

“Great people , amazing staff and better atmosphere. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to learn the sport of grappling or BJJ. It is like you are family when you are here and very inclusive .”

“I'm a blue belt from Raleigh, NC and have trained 3 years. During my week long vacation in Kiawah, my wife let me escape twice to drop in to Gracie Charleston. The owner, coaches, and students were very welcoming, and I felt right at home during my time on their mats.I had great coaching from Greg Elliot and Michael Key, and the rolls with the members were challenging and fun. I will definitely be back the next time I'm in town.”
