Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Sandpoint

"Leaving your ego at the door and embracing the family this place offers sets you up for success. Instructors are kind and have become good friends of mine. You don’t have to be a big or strong person to learn the Gracie method. And I think there is real beauty in that. Come see what it’s all about! As someone who travels a lot, has five younger sisters, and has been in more than one physical altercation in my younger years before Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, this place has given me the confidence to now know better what to do in a self defense situation if it happens to arise. I also really enjoy the MMA classes as I never felt confident in my stand up until taking them. Thank you Kauilani and the rest of the crew of enabling me to become a more focused, kind, and knowledgeable version of myself, both on, and off the mat."

"Phenomenal place. Great people. Amazing instructors, Kau'i, Trevor, and Ericka are awesome. Welcoming environment and built for development. The classes for kids are awesome. My daughter enjoyed her first class and looking forward to her next. I can not recommend Gracie Jiu-Jitsu enough."

"Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Sandpoint is more than just an academy, it's a family. The instructors genuinely care about their students, and the atmosphere is always positive and uplifting. I've never felt more supported and encouraged in my fitness journey."

"Both my wife and I joined Gracie Jiu Jitsu Sandpoint at the beginning of the year and haven’t looked back! Neither of us had any prior experience and were nervous about getting injured. Once we took that first step in the door, we were instantly received by the most friendly, thoughtful, and encouraging group of members and instructors we could have imagined. The curriculum is perfect and allows us to learn at a pace comfortable for the both of us. The level of coaching is exceptional, the community is like none other, and the pace is perfect for beginners and experienced athletes alike. 5 out of 5 for sure!"
