Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Shreveport / Bossier City

“My son goes here. The coaches are excellent with kids and Mr. Eric is an awesome instructor. I've watched my son's confidence grow over the last year as he just got his grey belt. I'm so proud of him. He still has a lot to learn but it's okay because I know he's in the right place at Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Bossier.”

“Our experience with Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Bossier/Shreveport has been nothing short of exceptional. This school truly goes above and beyond in creating a welcoming, empowering, and high-quality training environment for people of all ages. One of the standout opportunities is their annual women's self-defense course, which I personally found to be incredibly useful and practically helpful. The course covers real-world scenarios and equips women with the tools, techniques, and confidence to protect themselves if ever needed. The instructors are both professional and compassionate, creating a safe space for women of all backgrounds and skill levels to learn and grow together. In addition, my three daughters have been attending regular classes for the past three months, and they absolutely love every minute of it. The kids' program is outstanding—it's designed not just to teach physical skills, but to build confidence, self-esteem, courage, and a strong sense of respect. They’re learning how to stand up for themselves, handle conflict with grace, and face challenges with determination—all in a fun, interactive, and safe environment. The coaches at Gracie Jiu-Jitsu are experienced, passionate, and incredibly attentive to each student's development. Their positive energy is contagious, and it’s clear they care deeply about every person who walks through their doors. Highly recommend this amazing program to any family or individual looking for a supportive community, effective training, and a life-changing experience!”

“Gracie Jui-Jitsu in Bossier is truly phenomenal. Their trainers are patient, funny, and amazing when teaching the kids. I love the fact that after the young ones are done with training, they sit and discuss the self defense lessons, that were taught that day and ask how can this lesson be applied, if being bullied (to prevent the bullying), what if scenarios are asked, as the instruction is being taught.”

“My son found this place from someone on his college campus. They offer a 10 day free trial wich I love. My son is so picky he often starts stuff then realizes its not for him. I was optimistic and the first time we walked in knew it would be something he'd enjoy. The instructor was welcoming and treated us like we have always been there. The style of the teaching made me feel like even I could preform some of the moves. I can tell a difference in the confidence my son has and we decided to sign up for the program now that our trial is over. I'm so happy we found you guys!”

“3 of my children have been attending the Bully Proof class at Gracie Jiu-Jitsu SBC for a few weeks now and they love it. The instructors have made our children feel super comfortable and really have boosted their confidence not just during class, but all around. Highly recommend everyone to give them a chance.”
