"I pop in whenever I can and love this spot so much. The new owner is phenomenal and has really put his heart into the school. Coaches are amazing and the training is always fun. If you're looking for a sign to try jiu-jitsu, this is it!"
"Great place to learn the art, I’ve been bringing my son for the past year and have noticed a very big improvement in skill, and a boost in self confidence and determination. Would highly recommend for any age child to take some classes. Special since they give you a free week trial."
"Coaches are great, except one that is always on his phone. The person in charge/management not great, lack of communication. When you sign up, please ask them for a hardcopy of their rules or procedures. I didnt get any hardcopy or a list of rules and what to expect. One couch says one though and another coach says another different though and then they dont know or cant answer your questions. When I email the person in charge to place a hold on the membership since my child was going to be out of town. Never heard back from her, until I got an email from customer services to pay the montly fee. I called the number from the email and explain to them. They said that they have to follow procedures that i should have let them know 14 days in advance. But I couldnt reach to the staff, and I didnt kmow about the 14 days, again they said they have to follow procedures."
"Gracie Barra West Covina is by far the best Jiu Jitsu academy in the area! Owned and ran by ADCC World Champion Orlando Sanchez. I’ve been apart of this academy for nearly 10 years! If your looking for a good Jiu Jitsu school come check it out. Everyone is humble, respectful, extremely friendly and helpful. Love Love Love GB West Covina."
