Gracie Barra Meridian Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Self Defense

"This is an amazing gym! I had a great experience and it was so much fun meet the head instructor Professor Scott and his wife Lisa. The instruction was amazing and the energy unmatched. Highly recommend to anyone looking to find a solid gym with a great team."

"Great Jiu Jitsu gym for all ages! Coaches really care about the kids and help them achieve new skills and confidence! My kid is locked in during classes and always excited for the next one! Really great atmosphere in the gym!"

"I was kind of shocked at how a free class went here. The building itself looked like it was maybe condemned? Their open sign doesn’t work either so it was kind of hard to tell if they were even open. They gave my son a dirty gui to wear during class that you could tell had seen better days. The seating is a bit of a nightmare and unlike other gyms like this we’ve been to, it’s so loud! Non stop talking and socializing while the kids practice. It’s overstimulating and frustrating. The bathrooms are in rough shape, hence the duct tape on the floor. Nobody introduced themselves or made my kid feel included in anything. He was happy not to go back. It was even more obvious that they didn’t really know what was going on when they called me a few weeks later to sign him up for his free class. They were none the wiser we had already come and gone. There’s a ton of room for improvement."

"This is the best Jiu-Jitsu gym around! From the moment my daughter started we felt welcomed and part of a family! Professor Scott and the instructors are highly skilled making the learning process enjoyable and effective. Lisa is also incredible and has always gone the extra mile for our family. The classes are very well structured and have given my 9 year old the boost of confidence she was needing. I highly recommend this gym to anyone considering Jiu-Jitsu. We had taken a very extended break, my daughter refused to go back unless she was being trained under professor Scott. We are so glad to be back! Especially with the convenience of the added Meridian location. Thank you for all you guys do!"
