This gym has been amazing since day one! My son started there over two years ago and we would never consider taking him anywhere else. Very friendly staff, great with the kids—they really focus on the individual needs of each child. Coach Korey is always super welcoming, makes us feel like family. Gym is kept clean and tidy. They even offer summer camp!

Has been great for the whole family, we have been there for more than 4 years now. Our 2 sons Michael and Vincent 8 and 7 have grown so much with the help of there coach Korey who has been with them since they started.Would recommend this place to everyone, great staff, family atmosphere.

My Wife and my two daughters have trained with this professional team for over a 10 year period.. I can’t thank the staff enough for instilling confidence in my two daughters. They adore the staff and the whole Gracie family. I HIGHLY recommend to send your daughters or spouse to this location as it has LITERALLY changed their lives. Thank you Coach Cory, Coach Juan and Professor Roberto for what you do yoh truly makes a difference in people’s lives 🙌👏👏👏👏💯💯💯💯

I took my 6 year old for an introductory class and I was so impressed by their program. The coaches were welcoming, professional and answered all our questions. Coach Cory, Coach Hector and the entire staff have been amazing to my son and I. Their dedication and love for teaching shines through. I highly recommend this facility, they truly have the best children’s program in the city!

The coaching staff is well rounded and helpful, the gym is clean and professional in appearance. The environment is very friendly.The average student/member is very helpful and understanding.It’s a great place for both adults and kids.Come on in and check them.

Great atmosphere for kids of all ages, including parents. Coach Korey has been a great role model for our son. We look forward to him training both our kids for years to come.

This has been one of the best decisions we ever made for our son. It’s been 2 years and he still looks forward to coming. We love that they reinforce the same good manners and positive motivation that we do at home.

This is a great gym! My wife and kids love it here . All of the coaches are super helpful and my son has really grown in his love of BJJ since joining. Highly recommend!

One of the best gyms out here in Florida for wrestling and jujitsu! The coaches are inspiring and motivating. If your looking for a wrestling group for your child look no further! As a nurse I also wanted to be sure of the cleanliness and it’s very clean and in compliance with CDC guidelines I’m happy to have found a great place for my son to get his summer wrestling in!

Best place to bring your kids. The coaches are nice, motivational and always pushing the kids to give their best. My son have been going there for about 8 months now, he made many friends and enjoy practicing every week. Thank you guys for all you do!!

A really great gym to train at especially with kids. Very family friendly and you will really learn the martial art of Jiu Jitsu. The Professor and the Coaches know what theyre doing. Bring yourself and your kids at Gracie Barra Jacksonville to learn respect, discipline and also have fun!

We LOVE Gracie BJJ Jax. All the instructors are awesome. They are extremely attentive abs work one on one with the kids. My son had excelled here. I am so happy with this studio. Well done!

My boys and I loved it! Hope to come back again soon. Great workout physically and mentally. The instructors were amazing at what they do. Great education and info. to take into the real world.

We’ve trained at 3 other facilities and Gracie Barra has been by far the best. The standards of training and professionalism are superb and they will treat you like family.

Great place to learn Self-defense and BJJ. This gym offers an amazing family environment that really motivates you! I’ve been training for quite some time now and it has truly changed my life for the better.

My children started training at Gracie Barra a few months ago. It is really such a blessing in our lives. The kids really enjoy it and in such a short time have already picked up quite a bit! The facility is clean and the coaches are top notch. I cannot recommend them highly enough for children or adults.

My 4 year old daughter Luna recently started jiu jitsu classes here and I have to say, we are so grateful for Gracie Barra! The coaches are kind and patient with the kids making a comfortable environment where discipline and fun mesh perfectly. Luna has learned so much in a short time and is so proud of her school! Go Gracie Barra :)

I started training a year ago and it’s been worth it. I’m pushing on 50 years old and I must say these guys are real professionals. If your my age and you want to train I highly recommend this school. You’ll definitely learn a lot. You’ll feel more confident. Most importantly you’ll feel better.

This is amazing place to be all of the professors and coaches are amazing especially coach korey he is very passionate and professional in his job we love him and are very proud and he is very good with all of the students thanks coach korey for all you done

My son has been going here for about 3 months and he loves it. All the coaches are great and are extremely knowledgeable and professional. He has learned so much. I highly recommend Gracie Barra Jacksonville for anyone who wants to start their kids in Jiu Jitsu.

Good place for your child to have discipline and confidence, they care about the progress of your children I recommend them !!!

Love this academy. Started training here 7 years and wouldn’t train any place else.

I’ve been training here for 2 months now and I love it! Gracie Barra Jax is a special place. Shoutout to the coaches and professors for their dedication and openness to teach both the little ones and adults. That being said, there are excellent coaches for both jiu jitsu and muy Thai kickboxing. Would highly recommend!

Thus far for over 2 1/2 years we have enjoyed our experience with Gracie Barra of Jacksonville. Our son is in the GBK2 kids class, and loves all his sessions especially sparring and private lessons. This gym is spacious, clean, and the entire staff and coaches are great to work and communicate with. This is the perfect outlet for obtaining self-defense training and is a confidence booster. Shout outs in particular to Professor Roberto, Coaches - Korey, Juan, Hector, Rob and Bobby for their patience with training the kids

Amazing place! Owner and all staffs are extremely helpful and nice..

The best gym out there!!! If you are looking to gain self confidence, gain strength, kick some behinds, or simply get in a shape, Gracie Barra offers all of that. The coaches and professors are always looking out for you and do their best to help you be the greatest fighter while being the greatest human being!

Amazing gym for both beginners and also for experienced athletes. Great coaching staff along with an awsome environment!!

My son began training here and immediately loved it. The coaches are friendly and knowledgeable. The classes have a nice mix of experience and the coaches make sure everyone has fun while learning proper technique. A great place for anyone who wants to learn BJJ.

I moved to Jacksonville just over a year ago and tried a few different academies before I came here but I chose Gracie Barra because of the variety of classes they had to offer including gi, no gi, wrestling, kickboxing and they even have their own gym equipment if you wanted to come in and get your own workout in! Another plus is that your membership allows you to train at ANY Gracie Barra school around the world. Also, I love the energy and its a super friendly environment! My experience has been nothing but positive since I started coming here. The professors and coaches are wonderful and they are all very passionate about the sport and teaching. They are always willing to help and answer any questions you may have about techniques. They are extremely supportive and they will push you to be your very best, ESPECIALLY if you want to compete or fight. Highly recommend!

After being nervous to start training Jiu-Jitsu for years, I emailed Gracie Barra and set up a trial class. A year later, I wish I had started years ago. This team is so welcoming and respectful. Coming from a background of competitive team sports, I was especially nervous about joining as a female. These fears have been absolutely squashed. The fellow females at Gracie Barra have been nothing but accepting and encouraging and the men have been so respectful. The recent addition of the women’s class has been a huge blessing and has created a safe space for those who have a lot nerves joining a sometimes aggressive, co-Ed sport.I have overcome a lot in this class and am so thankful for those who notice and take the time to talk me through hurdles. Without the patience and encouragement especially from coaches Juan, Korey, and Mackenzie, I would not have the courage to face past demons and continue to develop my confidence and strength. Not only are the coaches great, but those who are experienced share their knowledge and are always willing to answer questions.

Best place to learn self defense and kick boxing. You won’t regret!🥋🥋🥋

Started taking my 5 year old son here about 3 months ago now and he is having a blast. I started up myself about a month ago as well and only wish we had both started sooner. Great coaches and Professors, clean facility, just an all around great environment. Highly recommended!

Great staff. Clean facility highly recommended for children

Gracie Barra Jax (GB) is an excellent choice for those interested in Jiu Jitsu and Kickboxing. I trained at GB in 2016 and have returned after a hiatus. The facility is spacious and well maintained. The staff members are professional and welcoming. The curriculum is consistent and challenging, but doable regardless of skill-level. Overall GBJ is one of the best martial arts schools to train at in town.

My son began attending Gracie Barra a few months ago, and he loves it! The instructors are wonderful. He has enjoyed it so much that he talked my husband into joining as well. They both speak very highly of everyone, and enjoy their time there!

My son and I have been training at GB JAX for some time now. From the first day we walked thru the doors the staff welcomed us as if were family. They are very professional and take the time to make sure you train properly, they explain each move in detail. During the recent events with COVID-19 we received a personal phone call to check up on us and see if there was anything they can assist with.If you are looking to train in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, kickboxing, or wrestling i would say to stop looking and come on in the GB JAX.

BJJ Changed my life fitness and self defense wise. I get one of the best workouts training here especially since they incorporate both grappling and striking in their curriculum. Would highly recommend!

Great place to learn to defend yourself. The entire team and staff is open and always willing to help you out. If you want to get started in martial arts, Id recommend this place

Best place in town. Learned a ton, still learning. Staff and facility are incredible and do a great job making you feel like youre part of the family. Keep up the good work!

Gracie Barra Jacksonville is truly a wonderful facility! Whether you’re looking for self defense, children’s classes or instruction from beginner to higher level jiu jitsu competition training, this is the best place to be in Jacksonville. My 10 year old daughter and I recently relocated from California, and have been warmly welcomed into this new jiu jitsu family. My daughter is enjoying the kid’s class, and I have found the adult class to be friendly yet challenging. The instructors/staff are attentive, knowledgable, and professional. Further knowledge and skill is brought to the table due to the diverse backgrounds of the instructors in not only in jiu jitsu but MMA and wrestling as well. If you’re searching for a place to begin or continue look no further!

Highly recommend! The only place in town I found that would work with a disabled young adult. The coaches, gym manager and students are exceptional! Excellent service, excellent lessons, excellent environment, facilities is clean and airy. Worth every penny!

Ive been taking my son here for months now. These guys know what theyre doing - theyre the real deal. All around excellent service with technique, health, fitness and making it fun all at the same time. These guys are worth every penny. The owner is top notch as well. Glad my child is here!!

Every so often someone extremely important comes into your life and influences a better path for you and that is what Professor Roberto and Gracie Barra Jacksonville did for me! I’m forever grateful! The first day I met Professor Roberto he said so many people drive through the parking lot but are intimidated to go in. That is no concern everyone is so welcoming here day 1...Just go and do it! It will change your life. Thanks Professor Roberto! 🤙

Great facility and great people. I have been to a few gyms and the training here is first class. I have never been to a place that has this many black belts and they are all very good teachers. This is a place that is right for all levels and experience.

Gracie Barra Jacksonville is a world class gym. With amazing instruction and technique. Professor Roberto is an amazing person and teacher on and off the mats. always looking for ways to better everyone around him. The coaching staff is excellent and the charisma and energy at the school is what makes it a friendly fun place to train and reach any goals you are set out for physically and mentally. The kids program designed to help children break barriers and help them reach their full potential. Gracie Barra Jacksonville is the place to be in North Florida. Training like a team, Fighting like a family.

Stellar school with amazing professors and coaches. Not only do you learn BJJ, you also learn self defense techniques like wrestling and striking. It’s intimidating at first, but the team becomes your family real quick. Great for any man, woman, or child at any fitness level!

There is no better place to build strength and confidence! Part of the community for years—part of our family! I cant wait until my baby is old enough to join. They build character, and discipline, and I think they let you take a class for free, double check their site for that, Im not sure.

Gracie Barra Jacksonville, is definitely an amazing experience. Its a disciplined, healthy & feel good atmosphere. Its worth spending my time and energy in the school because of Professor Roberto, the coaches & all the students. Its much more than an usual boxing club or a typical gym. Its an authentic martial art school and for someone who wants to sweat, workout real hard, fight & roll with different size of people on the mat but show no anger or no ego of anything. Its recommended for those who has some commitment to themselves. Thanks.

I’ve never practiced a contact sport such as Jiu-Jitsu before, I just didn’t think I had the physique for it. I joined Gracie Barra to please my husband really but here I am, several months later, and really enjoying it. I am impressed about many things; the professors, each with their unique style which makes it fun and refreshing. The other more advanced students are also very kind and helpful with the new students. The curriculum is not just BJJ. There are Muay Thai classes and some of the advanced students are practicing their MMA training. The kids classes are a riot- it’s a lot of fun seeing the little ones practice. The core exercises and physical conditioning aside, the classes are great and I could not recommend this academy enough! Sure, it’s not for everyone but try to stick with it. You’ll be surprised how good it is to meet these people and much much it feels like a very large family. And the GB students of Jacksonville seem to win most competitions. It’s a good place.

Great bjj school, strong wrestling foundation good from beginners to advanced. Awesome technical skills. I was visiting from Chicago and drop in to bjj class, very impressed with coach teaching style he makes sure you get the knowledge correctly.

My kids love coming to class and the instructors are all amazing

Gracie Barra is the best!

I had an awesome time training! I was thoroughly challenged, I had weaknesses exposed, and developed my game. I highly recommend!

Gracie Barra Jacksonville is a great self-development academy. Using Jiu-Jitsu to reach your personal and professional goals has tweaked my life in a very positive way. I see myself practicing this Martial Art for as long as I can!!

We ran a Robotics Workshop for the Summer camp kids. The staff is great and really work well with the kids. The kids were luving the Summer Camp and they took to Robotics very well. This is a very inviting place to train and they have me about to sign up now!

The people here are so friendly professor Robert is so knowledgeable and his instructions during class are so easy to follow! Its like Im back at my home school you get that real family feel, I got a really good vibe the very first time I walked through the door!

I loved this place they are an excellent summer camp!

I trained in a few BJJ academies in North Florida before deciding on Gracie Barra Jacksonville. The training in this facility is a class above the rest. The BJJ program has a syllabus, unlike other places. Team members are from all walks of life; home makers, white and blue collar professionals, students, teachers, servicemen etc. Were all here to help each other improve. This is the only facility that I would recommend to my colleagues.

A place to call home when away from home. A place where you can find the right help to develop the skills and tools you need to learn to defend yourself. Everyone is welcoming and ready to teach and help you grow. Thx Gracie Barra of Jax. OSS!!!

Passing through from Tennessee, hopped off I95 to stop in and train. Great group of guys, great training, and great instructor. Friendly, clean, fun, professional gym. If you are traveling down I95 and have time to stop by and train, DO!

Traveling from Houston for a wedding needing something to do while the girls got ready. I train at Rilion Gracie gym in Houston and was Looking for another gracie affiliated gym, This was a good stop, the guys here were welcoming. I was able to get an hour of open mat training in.. had the opportunity to roll with a few experienced guys.. highly recommended.. if you’re ever like me and just like to get in Jiu-Jitsu training whenever you can and are from out of town.. this is a good gym to stop at..

The best Brazilian jiu-jitsu school in Jacksonville!

Beautiful facility and fantastic training environment. Lead by a legitimate black belt, best place to train jiu jitsu in the Jacksonville area.

Gracie Barra jax has become a home away from home. From the very first day I entered the facility I was welcomed, and my bond with staff and students has grow tremendously. I dont think I will ever stop attending Gracie Barra jax, my daughter and I have began a life long journey of bjj and I dont think I could have found a better more fitting academy.

Awesome professor, coaches, trainers, and team. Amazing facility, you can get any type of training you want from here. Jiu jitsu, wrestling, Mma, kickboxing, Crossfit, strength and conditioning. If youre looking for great training great atmosphere this is it.

I first visited Gracie Barra in Jacksonville about 3 weeks ago. Ive been through many martial arts and fight training schools/programs. I have never met a staff or instructors like the people at Gracie Barra. It really is like a little family and since I have a big family (7 of us) its PERFECT for us. My kids go to the kids program and I go through the adult program. There is a variety of levels and experience. Some classes are catered to someone who has never stepped on a mat and some are very intense, like training for a full-on competition.If I were sitting with you (whoever you are) eyeball to eyeball.. I would tell you with all sincereity that this is not only the best jiu jitsu school around, its the best martial arts school in Jax with the best, good hearted people running the place. They truly are dedicated to helping us newbies grow.HIGHLY recommended! you WILL NOT have a poor experience.

I was only in town for a week, on business. I didnt want to miss a week of BJJ training, so I reached out to Gracie-Barra JAX. Immediately, I felt the tight family-style community that I love about MY school, back in Jersey, from the moment I walked in. The Fundamentals training felt Intermediate and the live rolls were some of the best of my 3-year run in BJJ. Moreover? Professor Roberto Cuartero PERSONALLY worked with me, as the week winded down! An amazing experience, a clean, friendly & professional school and TOP NOTCH jiu jitsu training...I cannot WAIT to be sent back to Jacksonville!

Professor Roberto and his crew make of this gym a great place to train not only Brazilian Jiu Jitsu but also Cardio and MMA.

Great Coaches ...👍👀

Familiar place, very technic.

Great school!
