"Joining Gracie PAC has been one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. This MMA gym offers basics & advanced classes for quite a few martial arts, which only a couple offer in Tampa Bay & most only offer BJJ & some “striking”. Gracie PAC has a lot of class slots, offers classes for boxing, muay thai / kickboxing, wrestling, gi/no gi Brazilian jiu jitsu & sparring sessions. Plus, this gym has the biggest number of pro, amateur, and comp team athletes actually competing in fights, numbering over 20 athletes, so there is a serious group of men and women that work very hard. I love that sense of competition and commitment and community. Pictured is one of the MMA fights one of the fighters fought at. Very modern, clean, spacious facility, a large number of coaches that coach for kids & adults. Some of them work with world class UFC fighters and I learn something new every day. Head Coach Billy is always a joy to encounter and train with, extremely professional UFC fighter with 12 UFC fights under his belt, and that level of excellence permeates throughout the entire business! No where else in Tampa Bay has this level of excellence of MMA. Very fair pricing for the excellent training offered in this prime location central in Tampa. Join us!"

"This is one of the best gyms in Tampa👏🏽everyone should visit and train here! The vibe is great, the people are top-notch, and the training partners are amazing. If you’re ready to level up your fitness/sparring game, come check it out. The coaches are very experienced, and the community is so supportive (and can even throw down when needed, lol!). Truly a cool and friendly place to work out."
Steven Rizzo
"Gracie PAC MMA is an outstanding facility with top-notch instructors and a welcoming atmosphere. The coaching staff is knowledgeable, patient, and truly invested in helping students improve, whether you’re a beginner or an experienced martial artist. The gym is clean, well-maintained, and has a strong sense of community. If you’re looking for high-quality training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, MMA, or self-defense in Tampa, this is the place to be. Highly recommend!"
Tommy Nofsinger
"My daughter has been training here for two years. Their kids program has been instrumental in my daughter’s personal development and growth. The instructors genuinely care about these kids. We recently moved out of the area and still make the drive to come to this gym. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for her here! Gracie PAC is the best gym in Tampa."
