Gracie Barra South Austin

"I want to specifically give recognition to Coach Ben, he has gone above and beyond putting in time and effort into not just my journey but my whole families jujitsu journey as well. I have been doing jujitsu for 4 months now. I entered my first competition knowing I wasn’t going to have a coach in my corner, Coach Ben texted me good luck and asked me who my coach was and I told him I didn’t have one. He took it upon himself to surprise me by showing up 30 minutes before my fight to not just support me but be in my corner for the comp. I’m 40 years old starting something new along side my family and Coach Ben has said multiple times to not just myself but to my kids how proud he of all of us. If your wondering whether you can start jujitsu the answer is yes, drop into this gym you are treated like family on day one. All the professors and coach’s are great but I’m grateful Coach Ben is in my corner!"

"I visited other martial arts school searching for the perfect place to have my kids learn and grow with jiu-jitsu. This one was far and beyond above the rest. The coaches and professors are excellent (my son wants to be just like Coach Batman and Professor Dande “when he grows up” lol). The staff is so friendly and helpful (Maria and Chrystal are angelic). I can’t say enough great things. Our family is SO happy we joined. We will eventually have all 3 of our little ones sign up when the time is right. The price is so fair too! They include unlimited classes for a monthly fee, offer free months when you pay for multiple upfront, and they have regular “extra” events at no additional cost (movie nights, parents night out, open play gym time, self-defense for adults, and more). The benefits of jiu-jitsu are numerous. If you’re considering a program for yourself or anyone in your family, look no further!"

From the moment you walk in, you can feel the warmth and passion this family-owned business brings to the community.
