I couldnt have had a better experience, then my class at Gracie Barra Kendall. Eric, the gym owner, welcomed me like a student, whose been training for years. All the students were nice and respectful. Sébastien, the instructor, was very professional, helpful, and jovial. I couldnt recommend anywhere else if your looking for good lessons, rolls, and experience.
I took my son there and they wouldn’t even allow him to try the free class. Really bad customer service!
Amazing place to learn grappling. The two black belts/mentors are very efficient at communicating and instructing a martial art that’s very difficult to say the least.
I’ve been here for about 2 years. Love the place.
Fantastic experience I had. Very friendly people, amazing atmosphere. I learned quite a lot in the time I was there. At first I was hesitant joining because I had never done any martial arts before this but I have never regret joining it. Both instructors Erik and Sebastian are amazing people, rolled with them a few times and overall feel like they deserve this place to grow even more due to how good of instructors and people they are. By the way, if you’re also looking for a place to do fitness then this is even more of a reason to join. Oh and lastly, if you’re not fit already don’t be discouraged from joining, when I entered I used to be quite overweight but overtime I got much better and lost a lot of weight, such as how many other people there have.
This gym is incredible!!! The coaches are really talented in educating the class room and real professional. The best jiu jitsu gym in Miami by far.
Is an amazing place to learn jiujitsu.
Great teacher/instructor..... Convenient class hrs Throughout the day, Awesome training program and a large family! The best training environment.
This school is amazing. I have been training for about a year and a half. Great instructors, great atmosphere and the people that go to the school are amazing. I highly recommend this school.
This Place is Home away from home
This is an awesome place to learn self-defense and workout at the same time... its a family oriented environment and the instructors are amazing... I will keep training and I cant wait for my kids to be big enough to start in this amazing Gracie Barra family....
After being out of martial arts and any type of physical activity for 16 years, due to injury, this gym has realy made me feel welcomed and safe. The morning classes are great and they have a shower for those who need to head straight to work. So glad i joined!
The instructor is very friendly and has a lot of patients with his students. He has a world of knowledge and is very passionate about teaching. Great atmosphere in the school. Love training at that gym.
Friendly, inviting and no judgements. Erick will work with you no matter you size, age or skill level. Everyone is super friendly and the vibe is always a positive one.
Top notch Brazilian jiu jitsu/self defense instruction in a safe, friendly and professional environment! If you are in Miami this is the place to be!-Don
Love this place!!! Joining this jiu-jitsu gym is like joining a second family!! You learn so much at your own pace but improve every day with great guidance from the down to earth instructors that know what theyre doing.
Best Bjj school in Miami period. Excellent staff and coaching from Professor Erik Darnott and And Professor Omar. If you are curious about starting your jiu jitsu journey go for it! This place is like a 2nd family to me, no bad vibes or anything. Very fun and loving family friendly environment and they offer help when you need it the most. Oss!
Great place to learn bjj! The instructors are of the highest caliber and is a great learning environment.
If you leave in the area go to Gracie Barra Kendall prof Erik with he’s crew gonna take of you, he’s has lot knowledge with all ages! The best place to learn real BJJ!
Gracie Barra Miami is a strong link in the Gracie Barra chain of Jiu Jitsu Academies in South Florida. From an outstanding curriculum to top notch instruction GB Miami is the place to visit if in the area!
Great, fun jiu jitsu experience. finally got my black belt the other day, these 8 years with this gym have been awesome.
A place that I call home everytime that I’m in Miami, Professor Erick is very technical and knowledgeable in Jiu Jitsu. By the way watch out with Steven he is the King of coladas 👊🏽👊🏽 Good vibes to you guys 🤙🏽🤙🏽
I figure I give it a year before providing feedback on the academy so here it is..... I wanted to start bjj for the longest time and finally made the decision a year ago. Professor Darnott and coach Omar are exceptional instructors who are well versed in the art of Jui Jitsu and follow the Gracie Barra philosophy of transcending borders of countries and cultural barriers. They bring all of us together, giving US a sense of family and fraternity which is really appreciated by all. There is a sense of individualized training during all class blocks. The training times are accommodating to our work schedules as there are early morning classes 6:30-7:30AM Midday classes 3PM-4PM and evening classes 7-8PM . Their childrens program is their pride and joy which reflects on the childrens faces.
Great atmosphere. Instructor is very knowledgeable and highly attentive to detail. Very nice and family oriented academy. Excellent instructions and great techniques. Great place to learn Jiu Jitsu.
The best Brazilian jiu-jitsu school in Kendall!
Mehh.... Best place to learn jujitsu in the Kendall area my jujitsu game has improved significantly since signing up, highly recommend this place!!!... Meh
This place is amazing! Having done Jiu-Jitsu for a few years now, I can clearly tell you that this school is the place to be. Erik, the head instructor, is very knowledgeable in what he does and wants you to learn. I have never been to a school that makes you feel like family as much as this one does. Everybody is extremely friendly and welcoming. Best of all, you are receiving world class Jiu-Jitsu training. If you are completely new to Jiu-Jitsu, this is the place to be. If you have been doing Jiu-Jitsu for a while like myself, this is the place to be as well. Definitely give it a try as you won’t regret it. 10/10!
Meh... best Jiu Jitsu school I’ve been to, awesome coach, great students, everyone will stop what their doing to help out. It feels more like a family then a school ! GBK
Awesome place for beginners like myself to learn and grow. Erick takes his with everyone and makes sure you do the technic correctly.
Such an amazing place to learn and grow your skills.
