As a parent, we all want the best for our kids. We want them to be kind but also know how to defend themselves if needed. After a month of having enrolled my 4yr old here I am more and more convinced that this was one of the best investments I could make for his self esteem and awareness once he takes off on his own. The professor here is patient and knowledgeable and the class is has been an excellent experience all around. I definitely recommend this place for kids and adults!!
This company is being ran by individuals that have no desire to teach, motivation nor transform anything but their own pockets. The lack of professionalism, and unconcerned behavior trickles down from the top directly to the staff, and trainers just rude, unprofessional, gossipy, and dishonest. Take your child and run!
Great school and top-tier, easy to understand instruction.
Although I wasn’t able to get a refund for a charge, I was able to get membership account canceled. There is too many run arounds, I don’t understand why they make it so difficult.
Im very happy and fortunate to have met the individuals that I have at this gym. not only do the guys at Gracie Barra have a very structured class. Which is exactly what I needed in getting back in to the art, Coach Wolfgangs way of teaching keeps you engaged and wanting to learn more. Over all Im very happy to have found this gym and to have made it my launching pad back into BJJ.
Gracie Barra Carrollton has been a great gym for me to train at and the people there have become my family. Every time I show up, I walk into a warm welcome and have people who I know will help me become a better martial arts trainer. The atmosphere at Gracie Barra Carrollton is truly one of the best communities I have ever been apart of. I would definitely recommend this place.
I joined Gracie Barra to get back into shape, but what I got was whole lot more than that! The place has a very positive atmosphere as you walk through the door. You are greeted by smiling faces who are all there because they all enjoy BJJ. The coach and Professor are AMAZING guys. They are so professional and treats everyone from ages 3 - 60 with utmost respect. The students are all so polite and friendly,, all there to learn from each other. I cant say enough about how great this place is. Even only after 5 classes, I feel like this is my second home. I recommend this place to anyone who is willing to take a step out of their comfort zone and learn a great self defense, sweat like crazy from exhaustion, and be around positive friendly people,
Great place with genuinely great teachers. Ive started my BJJ journey here a few months ago and intend on continuing for the foreseeable future. Strong focus on fundamentals with a tight curriculum; theres never a day where you walk into a class without an agenda. They emphasize safe growth at Gracie Barra, which is the type of gym, I think, people should begin at.
GB Carrollton and their teachers are top notch! The coaches work to bring out the best in you while teaching great skills for both the mat and everyday life.
Awesome! From out of town and they treated me like it was my home gym. Took the time to learn my name on the first class and greeted me that way all week. If you are just getting into martial arts start here .
Ive been to a couple of Gracie Barra locations in the Dallas area and so far this has been the best. The place is bright, as a nice location in terms of the facility inside, and the people here are really cool. The professor also explains things in a very detailed and structured manner which makes learning a better experience
This academy is amazing! The entire staff are very welcoming, helpful, and are really invested in everyone having a positive experience and, most of all, improving. It is really refreshing to go to a martial arts school that actually follows a training curriculum, rather than the usual, “Let’s see..... we’ll do this today.” Expect to work hard every class, and feel great after!
Awesome instructors they really take the time to explain the correct technique. Also very friendly environment, Great place, world class training and awesome people, cant get better than this. So what are you waiting for? Get in there and learn some Jiu Jitsu! 🥋😀
They’re supposed to teach kids how to defend themselves from bullies but they will BULLY you to pay more money. Very disappointing
Awesome place. Top class instruction. Warm and friendly environment. New students with no experience whatsoever will not regret taking that first step. If I’m almost 54 and I can do it, you can too!!!!!!c
I was looking for a different way to work out besides the conventional go to the gym and lift weights which I had been doing and getting quite bored of. I came in not knowing much about BJJ other than occasionally watching UFC and Pride fights, nor have I done any martial arts, so I seriously started at ground zero.I never thought starting here would build my self confidence, find new family and friends, and bring back my competitive drive that I lost in high school. I finally found something I felt a part of. The school is wonderful. The professor is a wealth of knowledge. The people are so welcoming and willing to help everyone. I highly recommend trying it out. You never know how much youll like it until you give this school a try.
Ive been in martial arts for over 25 years off and on, and this is one of the better schools when it comes to instructors and students when it comes to patience, respect and effectiveness. I can train not only self defense, but true bjj ground game. Highly recommend this school.
I was visiting home for the holidays and looking for a place to train.Gracie Barra Carrollton was very welcoming and has great instruction. Additionally, the drop in fee was only $10 and they let you borrow a gi for free.I would definitely train here again when I am in town!
This place is amazing! The people are amazing! If your interest is in tournaments and winning matches, I highly recommend training here.
A very good, clean and great environment to learn BJJ. Instruction is top notch, facility is great and the team and students are very helpful and WANT you to be there. Its a great BJJ school!They also offer kids classes, kids bully prevention and specific female self defense.
This is the best place to start learning the fundamentals of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. The teachers are very welcoming, encouraging, knowledgable, and very good at breaking things down so that they are easy to understand. Everyone in the class has fun.
Absolutely the BEST coaches (Coach Adrian, Coach David, Coach Israel) hands down, my daughter is developing self discipline, confidence, and endurance.
A phenomenal gym. Had a GREAT time while learning with these happy people! Highly recommend! :]
I visited Gracie Barra jujitsu today and had a great experience ! the trainer was very professional as he explained the classes with details he even guided me to a one on one class and felt very welcomed. I’m so ready to join and start taking jujitsu classes !
One of the Best gyms in north texas, Whether you here to learn self defense, get a workout, or even to compete, the instructors go above and beyond for you. No egos amongst the students, everyone is friendly and welcoming.
Great instructors. Encouraging learning environment. Amazing workout. Loads and loads of fun!
I really enjoy the classes at GB Carroll. First class Jiu Jitsu instructors. Would definitely recommend the place!
Love this place, Love the members, Love the Instructors and really appreciate the communication in relation to the programs, billing and operations. Highly recommend!
I LOVE THIS PLACE...its been seven months since I began my journey with GB Carrollton and Professor Valerio, and now also Coach Adrian...my health, confidence, and overall life has improved in more ways than I could have imagined. I turn 35 this week, and I feel as strong as my college days, confident in my ability to defend myself and my family, and have built some of the closest friendships in my life. I could go on, but instead Ill say this...if your curious about something new, an activity, a hobby, anything new, than do Brazilian Ju-Jitsu (BJJ) at GB Carrollton. -Grant
Great school! Very welcoming atmosphere with a very knowledgeable coach!
Amazing school to start your journey. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.
If you live or work in the North Dallas areas of Carrollton, Addison, Lewisville, The Colony, Richardson, Plano, and surrounding areas please come on down and sign up for a class. Whether its for cardio, flexibility, core strengthening, weight loss, self defense or competition, you owe it to yourself to change your life for the better. I started with no experience to help me stop smoking and 7 months later I entered my first competition and came out a silver medalist. Under Professor Valerio and coach Eric, you will not lose!
New school, growing fast, and a world class instructor. Probably the most ideal place to start learning.
