What Our Students Say

Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.

Jessica Gleave

"Signing my sons up for this program is one of the best decisions i've made for them. They LOVE it! My youngest does have a hard time sitting still when they are supposed to (he's 4 & this is new for him, so its to be expected) but they are amazingly patient with him! My oldest, 6-year-olds, he is the reason I looked into Jiu-jitsu in the first place with his hyperactivity behavior. This program has helped him SO much with control of his body and he's doing so much better in school. It's exactly what I was hoping to find, and the coaches are so caring, helpful and always right there to help. (The first time my oldest was put in a choke hold position, the coach was right there, laying on the floor right next to him, talking him through exactly what to do.) I couldn't be happier with this gym."

Julian Sandoval

"We’ve had an outstanding experience with the Tiny Champions at Gracie Barra. The professors and coaches are all amazing — they’re patient, supportive, and really focused on teaching the kids not just Jiu-Jitsu, but also important life skills like discipline, respect, and always giving their best effort. It’s a well-rounded, structured program that helps children grow both physically and mentally — and what makes it even better is that the whole family can get involved. Gracie Barra offers classes for all ages, including adults, creating a supportive environment where everyone can train, grow, and thrive together."

Angela C

"Both my sons are training jujitsu here,it’s one of my best decisions to put them in the classes. Professor Lucas and other coaches are super personable, technical and knowledgeable. Beyond that professor Lucas is truly care about every kids. He always make appropriate arrangements for kid’s sparring. My boys get so much encouragement, their confidence, grit,discipline and strength have skyrocketed. They always look forward to the class. And Paula is super supportive, patient and warm- hearted, she explains everything very clearly and always there to support."

Brenden Morgan

"Due to being in the military and moving around a lot I have trained at a lot gyms. This is by far my favorite one! The reason I chose GB Ocotillo was because of the amazing atmosphere during my first time on their mats. Everyone was so welcoming, friendly and you could tell they had a great understanding of the martial art. Plus, Professor Lucas remembered my name after the first time I met him. Which I’ve come to learn is one of the hardest for most Professors. I highly recommend Gracie Barra Ocotillo for EVERYONE! Men, women and children. Go train here."
