"We are new to Gracie Barra, and it’s already been such a wonderful experience! My little guy absolutely loves it…. he’s learning so much and gaining confidence with each class. The coaches and staff are great and the families we’ve met have been so welcoming. We couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend this team to anyone looking for a supportive, positive environment!"
Bridget Fields
"If your looking for a program that keeps the best interest of students in mind, this is it! Our son started at GB Rockledge about 2 years ago- since starting here he has grown in confidence, independence, and has begun developing perseverance. The coaches really care and are invested in teaching the skills needed to be successful in life- I couldn't be more thankful or impressed with our experience. Thank you coaches, for the valuable role you have played in our family."
Ramon Rivera
"Professor Alex and the team at Gracie Barra Rockledge truly embody their motto 'Jiu Jitsu for Everyone.' No matter your experience level, age, or background, this gym has something to offer. For beginners, Professor Alex and the coaches excel at breaking down movements into clear, easy-to-understand steps. They create a welcoming environment that fosters confidence as you learn the fundamentals. But don't be fooled – their expertise extends far beyond the basics. Advanced students are constantly challenged and their skills are pushed to the next level. The inclusivity is fantastic. They have programs for veterans and separate classes for children, making it a great option for the whole family. And it's exciting to see more and more ladies joining Coach Lilly's classes – a great sign for anyone looking for a welcoming atmosphere for women. If you're looking for a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gym that offers top-notch instruction, caters to all experience levels, and fosters a strong sense of community, look no further than Gracie Barra Rockledge."
