"Professor Marcelo and his wife professor Mariana are world class as instructors and as individuals. I would highly recommend this place for beginning adults as well as children. My daughter and I have been training for over 4 yrs and have enjoyed the journey and BJJ community. BJJ is really for everyone!"
"Professor Mariana is truly an incredible person. Her passion for Jiu Jitsu and dedication to empowering women shines through in everything she does. She treats everyone with patience and respect, regardless of their experience level, and she genuinely cares about who you are beyond the mats. She fosters a warm, family-like environment that keeps you motivated to train—even on the tough days. If you visit her at Gracie Barra Pearland, you’ll experience all of this and so much more. I promise it’s worth it."
"After more than six years at Gracie Barra Pearland, I can confidently say it's one of the best decisions I've made for myself and my family. My daughters trained here as well, and I saw firsthand how easily Professor Marcelo works with kids and even teenagers (who can be a tough crowd!). He and Professor Mariana have built an incredible community. They're both world-class competitors, but they also understand that not everyone wants to compete, and they respect and support each student's individual goals. The sense of community here is truly special. The professors are top-notch, creating a friendly and supportive environment that feels like family. Professor Mariana's women's class is a highlight of my week. It brings together women of all skill levels, creating a supportive space to learn and grow in jiu jitsu. If you're searching for a jiu jitsu school where you'll feel welcomed, supported, and challenged to grow, look no further than Gracie Barra Pearland!"
"World class instruction in a super friendly environment. The professors are world champions and bring a familial spirit to the school. This is the best bjj in the area."
