The standard we hold
Six signs of a well-run Jiu-Jitsu academy.
Reviews tell you how people felt. These are the standards we hold ourselves to, and what we'd encourage anyone to look for when choosing where to train.
Qualified instruction
Ask who teaches the classes, how instructors are trained, and what teaching standards they follow.
HereEvery instructor is ICP certified, CPR trained, and background checked. Meet the team.
A real path for beginners
Ask how someone with zero experience is introduced to the sport and whether Fundamentals are taught progressively.
HereEvery beginner starts in Fundamentals, learning the core moves one step at a time. Start here.
Clean training spaces
Look at the mats, restrooms, changing areas, and ask how often they are cleaned.
HereMats are sanitized daily, and restrooms and changing areas are cleaned on the same schedule.
A culture your family feels comfortable in
Watch how instructors interact with beginners, children, parents, and experienced students.
HereFamilies train together here. Our instructors work to know their students personally, and parents are welcome to stay and watch class. See the kids program.
A structured path to progress
Ask how classes connect over time and how students progress from Fundamentals into more advanced training.
HereEvery class sits inside the Gracie Barra program sequence, so students move from Fundamentals into more advanced training with their instructor's guidance. The same curriculum is used across 1,300+ GB schools worldwide.
Clear membership terms
Understand billing, cancellation, freezes, and notice requirements before joining.
HereMonth to month. Cancel any time with 30 days' notice, and freeze your membership for up to 90 days if you need a break. Every term is written out in full before you sign. See the terms.
