What Our Students Say

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

D. S.

"Visited from South Carolina. Watched my two grandchildren in their Monday night LC2 class. I am familiar with Jujitsu classes…they had a very nice class! Also, the organization for the good size class was great. Everyone who needs special attention gets it. Staff are super friendly and professional. We had in tow a teenage grandchild who belongs to a gym in our state, and he attended the Saturday GB 1 / 2 class. He got a great workout and said he was sad we didn’t live closer. That’s high praise from him😀 Wonderful experience from excellent instructors, and nice people. Thank you Professor Eric and Coach Sierra, owners."

Eufemio Feria (Ferrari)

"Been attending GB Yuba City for 8 months now with my daughter. We absolutely love it here! Professor Eric and Coach Sierra are the best people! Very friendly! They are military and first responder friendly! Highly recommend to bring your kids in so they can have the tools to protect themselves when the time comes!"

My respect but my time and money cost me ! I try call the number on here but not respond and voicemail full ."

Alyssa LaComb

"My four year old attends the younger kids class (3-5) on Saturday mornings at 9:30-10 as parents we love seeing the confidence our son has gained! He is an extremely kind kid who was not sure about doing some of the grappling moves but over the months he is now more comfortable with preforming moves and playing games within the group! We have had amazing coaches Anthony, Paul and Logan who my son has liked very much! He is excited for jujitsu and loves wearing his GI. Thank you Gracie Barra for making my little boy happy! 🤍"
