David D
"Top notch culture here, family environment, and excellent instruction by Prof Fabiano and company. Great aspect of training is the specific training, where we work specific positions with safe oversight. Very clean dojo, mats are cleaned frequently. If you don’t train, there is tons of space to open your laptop and watch the classes"
Emre Yurt
"Been going for a couple months now and I fell excellent! Great instructors that create a fun and super informative classes along with an incredible community. Would absolutely recommend!"
Mike Dickens
"We’ve had an incredible experience at Gracie Barra over the past two months! Our elementary-aged daughter started training here, and we couldn’t be happier with the environment and instruction. The owners are incredibly kind and welcoming, and the instructors have a fantastic way of working with kids—patient, engaging, and always encouraging. The entire gym community is supportive, making it a great place for young learners to build confidence and skills. We also appreciate their flexibility—when we missed a few classes due to vacation, they gladly accommodated make-up sessions. It’s rare to find a place that combines high-quality instruction with such a warm and family-friendly atmosphere, but Gracie Barra is truly a hidden gem. Highly recommend for anyone looking to introduce their child to BJJ in a positive, well-run setting!"
