Gracie Barra East El Paso

"I've been a proud parent of a dedicated 15-year-old at Gracie Barra Jiu-Jitsu for nearly a decade now. Starting at the west location and transitioning to the east, the consistency of top-notch training at both sites has truly impressed us. The professors and coaches have been instrumental in my son's growth since he was 7, demonstrating exceptional dedication to their craft. The commitment they show, going above and beyond by investing their own time, is unparalleled. Whether it's early morning sessions, late-night training, or additional one-on-one support, they consistently strive to help every individual reach their full potential. The competition-focused approach at Gracie Barra is commendable. They not only prepare students for competition but go the extra mile with specialized classes and individual attention. The emphasis on being competition-ready is a testament to their commitment to excellence. What sets Gracie Barra apart is the family atmosphere they've cultivated. It genuinely feels like a second home for my family. He trains seven days a week, and each session ends with a smile on his face. Professor Jeff and Alexis, along with all the coaches and higher belts, have been outstanding mentors. They not only provide technical expertise but also foster a sense of community and camaraderie. Beyond producing top-notch athletes, Gracie Barra instills discipline and a strong work ethic that transcends the mats. The lessons learned here go beyond Jiu-Jitsu, influencing my son's approach to everything he attempts, both on and off the mats. The dedication to success, both in training and in life, is truly unmatched. And it's not just the opinion of one parent - walk in and talk to any parent, and you'll hear nothing but praise for the exceptional environment Gracie Barra provides for our children. The dedication of coaches and higher belts to make the lower belts better is a testament to the supportive and collaborative culture at Gracie Barra."
