Posted 8 months agoMy son has been going to Gracie Barra for about two years now and we absolutely love it! He started with no experience at all, and the professors, especially Professor Laura, have been incredible. They’re patient, professional, and really know how to motivate the kids. My son gained so much confidence and learned real self-defense skills. The environment is super friendly and welcoming. I definitely recommend Gracie Barra to any parent looking for a great place for their kid to train!
Posted 10 months agoMy daughter has been attending Gracie Barra classes for a couple of months already and it has been a pleasure experience. Great atmosphere including the entire Gracie Barra team members. Well recommended to everyone….
Awesome place they have been very patient and great with teaching my kids and challenging them.
This is the best place to take your children for BJJ. The entire staff (most importantly Kim) is exceptional with children. I trust them with my child and you should to.
I can't say enough good things about GRACIE BARRA Jiu-Jitsu! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and supported by both the instructors and fellow students. The atmosphere is incredibly positive and inclusive, making it a great place for anyone, whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced practitioner. The instructors (Sergio) are top-notch—knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely passionate about teaching. They break down techniques in a way that’s easy to understand and always emphasize safety and proper form. Every class is well-structured, with a perfect balance of warm-ups, technique drills, and sparring. I’ve learned so much in such a short time.
This place is the best! I love training here and I feel like I’m home!
Kim is amazing, the professors are amazing, everybody is amazing. I couldn't recommend this dojo any more than I am already. I love everyone here and all their programs are awesome.
Come learn self defense and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu from professors who love this art and enjoy teaching to all ages.
Im visiting from Orlando, and I had a great time training at Coral Springs! Great professors and team!
Really good jiu jitsu school!
Excellent Jiu Jitsu Academy, Clean Matts, very approachable proffessors and coaches. I also have 2 girls attending that enjoy coming in to learn. It has made a positive impact on both their lives and mine. Jiu Jitsu can help you break through some of your mental and physical barriers. Even one's that you don't know you have.
I am a brown belt and started to training at Gb Coral springs after my daughter was born, and I was received like a family for everyone at the team. I have never seen a so welcome, happy, and amazing environment in a BJJ school. they have high qualified Professors and coaches for all levels. I’m so happy that I made this decision. I highly recommend this Gracie Barra to everyone.
I started training here in May of 2023, the professors and people have always been welcoming and so kind to any person who walks through the door. Not only does training help with your physical wellbeing, but you mental wellbeing as well!! There’s no where else i could ever think of training BJJ. I always recommend Grace Barra to anyone who brings up wanting to get into shape/jiu jitsu.
A melhor academia do sul da florida 🤩❤️
Gracie Barra Coral Springs Changed both my sons Lives! They push them to be Great!
The Best Jiu Jitsu Gym in the World! Professor Fabio Professor Lucas Coach Laura and the whole Gracie Barra Team!
I love this team and all the professors and coaches!!!! Professor Sergio is the Best in the world!!!!! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 ossss ❤️❤️❤️❤️
It’s the best BJJ school in South Florida! I love the school, the staff is amazing people and it’s a very family and cool environment! …
My son has been training for 2 years and not only has he improved his physical and mental state, but we have also found a great family. He says he is a Colombian with jiu-jitsu running through his veins.
My son has been training at Gracie Barra for a year, and we are extremely satisfied with the experience. The team of professors is highly qualified and dedicated, always attentive to the needs of the students. The atmosphere at the academy is welcoming and respectful, creating an environment where children feel safe and motivated to learn. The classes are well-structured and adapted to different skill levels, ensuring that each student can progress at their own pace. In addition to jiu-jitsu techniques, the academy also emphasizes important values such as discipline, respect, and camaraderie. The academy's facilities are excellent, with clean and well-maintained mats, as well as flexible schedules that fit our routine. We have noticed a significant improvement in our son's confidence and physical fitness since he started training here. I highly recommend Gracie Barra to anyone looking for a quality jiu-jitsu academy for their children. It is an investment that is well worth it for their personal and athletic development.
By far the best Gracie Barra I’ve been to. Great instructors and lots of kids for all different ages and sizes
Las mejores experiencias con mi hijo en la academia el trato con los profesores puntuales con las horas de clase y la enseñanza también mi hijo está súper feliz con sus clases
Es una escuela excelente!!! Sus instructores super capacitados, conocen a cada uno de los alumnos. Muy dedicados.
A fantastic place to train, whether you're a novice or more advanced student. The techniques are broken down wonderfully, and there's plenty of time to roll so you can hone your skills in real-time. I am 40 and love coming here, and bring my 8 year old daughter as well so she can learn self-defense techniques. The key ingredient to GB Coral Springs is its welcoming, friendly atmosphere: I would not hesitate to recommend you come to try it out yourself and bring your family along with you!
Great place with a beautiful structure and incredible methodology for starting Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu 🤘🏻🇧🇷🇺🇸
Gracie Barra Coral Springs is a pillar of the community. Our family has had the pleasure of training at the school for over three years and counting. Professor Gui has instilled a strong culture of brotherhood and support throughout the academy. The students are welcoming and genuinely want to help each other. The school embraces the "jiu-jitsu is for everyone" philosophy. Students are diverse, from beginners who want to develop their physical fitness to active competitors. It's great to see the impact jiu-jitsu has on teammates, such as weight loss and improved confidence. The Professor and the coaches are also great with children and teens. They make the classes fun while teaching discipline and self-defense. My son and daughter are both enrolled in the little champions program.
Gracie Barra Coral Springs is awesome! My daughter loves doing jiu-jítsu there. They have the best coaches and it is a true family.
This place is special. I was looking for a place to train and get in shape, and found a gym I can call home! Prof Gui is a true leader on and off the mats. I had zero knowledge of jiu-jitsu when I walked in, and now compete multiple times due to the motivation of Professor and the teammates. This gym, the Professors and teammates have literally made me a better person. And pushes me to keep improving myself everyday! Both on and off the mat.
Gracie Barra Coral Springs is a wonderful training facility with top notch instructors that treat students like family. Brotherhood, integrity, and development are at the forefront on AND off the mat!
Amazing place, everyone so respectful and pushes you to do better 👍
This is a great school to learn BJJ. Professor Gui is an excellent instructor. A lot of training partners here to train and learn together.
I joined the school a couple of months ago because was convenient to me - it is close to my house - and it bears the Gracie name. The staff is amazing and my teammates are very helpful; there is so much respect for each other. I am very grateful to find them and be part of the team.
If you’re looking for a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gym that will turn in to an expansion of your family, that’s the right place. Professor Gui Lyra besides of a great black belt he’s a leader and a person that you can trust and rely on.
I have been trying at GB Coral Springs since it open. I have seen it grow. I’ve been training BJJ for over 11 years and in a few academies and GB Coral Springs is one of the best. Very nice family of athletes, amazing kids and teens programs. And the head Profesor, coaches and staff are just the best in the business. I highly recommend anyone who wants to learn his beautiful art to join this amazing school.
Amazing Jiu-jitsu, and the environment is awesome, this team makes you grow like no other!!!!
Gracie Barra Coral Springs, an amazing place to learn jiujitsu, develop new friendships and be the best shape of your life. The professors and the coaches are top level skilled. Come join us!
Being training at Gracie Barra for Almost 3 years now, and am glad I join the biggest Jiu Jitsu team in the World, I would not go anywhere else. If you are looking for self defense, competition or just to get in great shape this is the place for you. The environment here will make you not want to leave, you are always greeted with a welcoming smile and are made to feel like if you are at home. GBCS professors are all passionate about this “gentle art”, this passion that they show day in and day out brushes off to anyone who walks in. Highly encourage anyone who is interested in joining a Jiu-Jitsu academy to visit Gracie Barra, anyone is welcome to watch the training sessions. Gracie Barra Coral Springs have GB1 program with focuses on fundamentals “ which is the hear and soul of Jiu Jitsu” and self defense, it do not matter if you have experienced or not, the program is design to give the tools necessary to protect your self by attempted injured by another. The GB2 program have a more advance curriculum, where it goes more in depth into refined your Jiu Jitsu.
Great facility with great professors who invest time in all their students regardless of age. I have been going to this academy for years. I recommend all parents to enroll their children if they want their kids to learn how jiujitsu can make them better individuals to our communities. This place has taught me the values and disciplines of martial arts and I apply them everyday into the real world. It has changed my life so much that my wife joined and the moment our child meets the minimum age requirement, we will enroll her too. Ossss
Best BJJ academy out there! Friendly and welcoming environment!
GB @ Coral Springs is a great place to learn the practical and proven martial art of BJJ. No matter your age or ability the lead instructors will take the time to convey the movements and make sure that you are preforming (at your own pace). The team mates are great and always willing to help each other get better. Gi the professor leads by example and keeps his students safe! I have been to a bunch of clubs in my time as I am 48 hrs old. Where the instructor shows the move and then leaves you all alone with the other students to figure it out. While he sits on his phone or doesn’t appear to care. I must say that this is not the situation at GB Coral Springs club (although a large name), they are professional and care about you, your progression and life. It’s like being part of the family! It’s a great investment to learn how to really protect yourself and stay sharp/fit! 🔺
Safe, fun, friendly environment. Gym is clean, well maintained and they’re always willing to improve. Prof Guilherme does an spectacular job! It’s my second home. ❤️
Incredible gym, incredible team, and incredible professors. Been training and competing now for more than a year at this gym. The knowledge here has been so great. I, without a doubt, feel way more confident in myself. Especially when going out to public places bc I at the very least I can defend myself. To this day I still get tapped out but I wouldn’t change that for the world! Borraaa!!
32 years old and first time trying a martial art. The idea intimidated me, but all the students in the gym are like one big family and they welcomed me very well. After 4 months I go every day, it's an incredible experience ❣️
Amazing Professors, Coaches, and teammates. Everyone is treated with repect no matter the color of their belt. Never felt out of place or that I didn't belong. The instruction is top notch and the amount of detail given is what sets Gracie Barra Coral Springa apart.
Excellent gym, with qualified professionals and family atmosphere
Gracie Barra Coral springs is the best school to train jiu-jitsu , Professor Guilherme lyra has the knowledge and the patience to guide me and my team mates to learn this beautiful Art . Jiu-jitsu has change my life and so many different ways I can even explain. Thank you Professor Gui for keeping a great school.
Awesome place, kids really enjoy the training and atmosphere.
A mi me encanta para El Niño, lo disciplina, hace amistades, crea habilidades de defensa para su seguridad y los coaches son bien pacientes con los niños y son respetados, gracias , pienso que hay que preparar mas motivaciones .
Daughter has been going to Thai school for 2 years and her confidence has never been higher. She walks in a room of her peers with her head up.
My kids have been going there for over a year and we love it. The professor is amazing and the whole Gracie Barra team here at this location is the main reason we continue to be loyal and dedicated.
Prior to coming Gracie Barra my son struggled with his self control, confidence and ability to focus. Since joining 5 months ago, I’ve seen a tremendous growth with his character and development. The instructors are every bit of elite and 1st class when it comes to educating all students. To any parent that’s seeking validation, I’d “Highly” recommended you allow your child to attend their free 1st class to witness the experience.
This school is great, professor Guii is great with the kids. Definitely BJJ is 100% recommended for your kid, and if you choose this school you won’t regret it.
The kids and I train here, and we love it. Excellent instruction from Black Belt Professor Gui, a great environment, and great training partners. Come check it if you’re in the area.
Best of the best! Coaches and staff make everyone feel welcome and ready to learn jiu-jitsu!
I've been training at Gracie Barra Coral Springs since the beginning of June 2020 and it has been amazing. Professor Guilherme and Professor Sergio are great instructors. It is a great atmosphere and very family oriented. The instructors and staff knows all the students/members by their first name and always makes you feel very welcomed. I've learned so much from everyone here. It also helps build confidence. Apply the jiu-jitsu lifestyle translates to more than just on the mats, but makes your life better overall. You will be pushed to new limits that you never knew you were capable of. I look forward to training with Professor Guilherme, Professor Sergio, and the rest of the team at Gracie Barra Coral Springs for a long time!
Amazing environment, easy parking, clean facility, outstanding professionals.
It's a nice place, very clean. A nice way to let a 4 yr old burn off some energy and maybe learn something..
At Coral Springs Gracie Barra you will not only learn jiujitsu from the greatest professors and be inspired to live a healthy lifestyle, but you will also make great friends who will always respect you no matter your fitness or jiujitsu level.
Great classes, amazing teachers/instructors. Simply the best for kids and adults. Staying here 4ever
I like this school because of their level of teaching of the kids' BJJ program.
Clean,welcoming staff, well trained instructor
Very good quality place. Professional Education. Excellent communication and very friendly atmosphere. PLUS The professor very nice, helpful and his education excellent. My three kids love this place and they very excited to go back for the next training every single day!! Highly recommended Gracie Barra at Coral Springs!!
Been training here for 4 months and its been GREAT! Everyone treats you like family. Excellent facility and instruction. Super Clean! 1st time doing BJJ, after a life time in Goju ryu Karate, and I could not be happier. Everyone is nice and you can tell that they want you to succeed. Best $$$ Deal In Town! I recommend Gracie Barra Coral Springs 100%. Love it!!!!
I went to the academy to have a free class and i got instantly hooked! The professors, the teammates, everyone its so nice and cool, besides the confidence, cardio and everything that comes with when you train Jiu-jitsu!! Go and try a free class YOU WON'T REGRET IT!!

Great instructors and staff, they always provide a friendly and non judging environment to learn and train. Gracie Barra Coral Springs is the perfect example of Jiu-Jitsu for everyone! No matter your level of experience, physical conditioning, age, weight, previous injuries, etc. They will always work with you to build you up to your maximum potential, safely and slowly at a pace that is challenging but not brutal. You will learn not only self defense techniques but also Jiu-Jitsu mindset and philosophy, these lessons will help improve your mind, body, and confidence to take on whatever challenges life throws your way. I started my Jiu-Jitsu journey here a year and a half ago, its hard to put into words all the positive ways Jiu-Jitsu has effected my life. When I first started I was a little nervous not knowing what to expect but I was greeted with open arms by the instructors and other students. They helped me every step of the way, there is a sense of Brotherhood that I have never experienced before, like minded individuals who help push each other to be your best both on and off the mats. There is no Ego here no one is out to hurt you, we all learn and improve together as a team. Its truly a unique and incredible atmosphere you have to experience yourself, come by for a free class and see for yourself you wont regret it.
Great place to learn self control and to align body and mind. Professor Gui and Professor Sergio are the best! OSS!
A wonderful place to learn Jujitsu. The customer service is top-notch. All the instructors are awesome! The kids classes are especially great and the instructors are great at instilling discipline and confidence. The classes are well organized. Can't say enough about this place. You won't be disappointed.
ótima academia de jiu-jitsu ,com muita disciplina e excelentes instrutores.
My son and I began training at Gracie Barra Coral Springs in May. When we signed up we were told welcome to the family. At first that sounded cliche, but that is exactly what has happened. Everyone at Gracie Barra has become exactly like family. The training is top notch, and I am so glad we chose this location to begin our BJJ journey. All of the professors are extremely knowledgeable and patient. I would not hesitate to recommend Gracie Barra Coral Springs to anyone looking to learn BJJ.
Best Jiu Jitsu School. Teachers are great, wonderful environment for training.. I love training at this place!!
This is a great place to learn jiu jitsu. The instructors are very friendly and super knowledgeable. It’s also a really helpful/ learning environment. The students help each other out, and the instructors are willing to go over positions again or find someone that can go over it again with you if you forget. It’s a nice, hard working environment and the instructors are patient with you and want to see you succeed. Overall I’ve enjoyed the experience so far.
They are good teachers and respectful. I hope y’all have opportunity to visit and have a class with them
We went to visit the Gracie Barra Coral Springs location and decided this was the place for our son to train. He's been at it for three weeks now and we've seen improvements. Now my husband trains there and we feel apart of the family. The facility is nice and clean always, the instructors are phenomenal and plenty of parking! Can't say enough come give them a try!
The best Jiujitsu for kids gb Coral Springs teaches respect, discipline & self defence, in a fun and safe way for the little kids.
The professors truly care about the students!! I am very grateful to be a part of the Gracie Barra Family.
Amazing facility and second to none training from Professors who will work with anyone at any level. Once you start you become part of the Gracie Barra family very quickly and develop strengths you didn't even know you had! Try a FREE class like I did, after that I was HOOKED!
The details the instructors use to teach this incredible martial art is bar none. Professor Sergio, Pascual and Fabiano curriculum is outstanding besides that the academy is new and extremely clean. The Gracie Barra culture is very professional and has that family friendship atmosphere. The best thing is that they offer classes through out the whole day so it can fit anyone’s schedule.
Professor Sergio and Professor Fabiano are some of the best instructors around. They break down complex movements into small slices, analyzing every detail and angle of movement. They communicate very well and are patient in such a way that all levels of experience can benefit ranging from white belt to black. The environment and philosophy is warm and welcoming. There is a purpose for their methods both physically and mentally. The students are very welcoming, always coaching lower belts and very family oriented. Facility is well kept, always clean with plenty of space. Clean locker room and showers available. Restrooms are always clean and fully stocked. Walls have the GB lineage and curriculum up students and prospects to view. Leaders set the tone, and in this institution, they absolutely nailed it. Gracie Barra Coral Springs is the one and only place to go if you want the best experience, self-defense training, and journey through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
Excellent place to train with great instructors and great people. Train with a structured curriculum in a safe and fun environment. Glad I found this place!
Wonderful place to put your kids to train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Not ever having experienced it before, it is something I look forward to doing again.
Not so bad place till you want to cancel membership even if you have to move. Our last visit was in February, in March we had informed them in person and by phone that we are not going to attend anymore and ask stop charging our CC since April. Currently is beginning of September and they are still keep charging our credit card! It was at least 2 visits, 3 phone calls and 3 emails between these and all of them with no results and bla bla saying about corporate policy bs. I have disputed all that transactions with credit company and filed claim against them. It’s disgusting to be so complicated to their clients who have been for years with GB and paid even during Covid times without visiting the school. Shame on you GB accounting. Future members Think twice before you starting attending this exact school.
A good place, but be careful before you sign the contract. They are tricky.
During my one month there I had a good time practicing, one of the things that turned me off was I was reading signing the paperwork and practiced started, so I was rushed to sign and go to practice. So one of the things I missed while reading was the 60 days you have to wait to cancel. At $165 a month thats over $300 to stop going to this place. The reason I'm stopping was I broke my thumb, so just make sure you plan your emergencies 60 days in advance.
As a mother and wife, I was initially nervous about starting jiu jitsu. However, Coach Laura's women's only class quickly built my confidence. Laura is an incredible coach, both on and off the mats, making me feel welcomed and empowered. Encouraged by her, I also started attending regular classes with Professor Fabio, who is equally fantastic. Now, I train alongside my husband and son, who have been coming here for almost a year. Our son is very talented and even participates in adult classes, where everyone appreciates his energy and skill. Regrettably, the actions of the office manager, Enzo, have overshadowed our otherwise positive experiences. He doesn't even train in jiu jitsu but feels entitled to dictate what happens on the mats. Enzo's brazenness hit an all-time low when he pressured Professor Fabio, a fifth-degree black belt, into reluctantly removing our son from the mat, despite no valid reason, disregarding his dedication and skill. This caused our son great distress, leaving him in tears. The other students were visibly upset by Enzo's actions, showing overwhelming support for our son. Despite this, the management has done nothing to address or rectify the situation. While Fabio and Laura are exceptional instructors who have created a welcoming and positive environment, Enzo's poor behavior and unwarranted interference have significantly detracted from our overall experience at the gym.
Fabio, Lucas and Laura, the instructors, are phenomenal. They create an inclusive and supportive environment, encouraging both adults and children to excel. My son, who competes (and podiums) at the highest levels of jiu jitsu at both IBJJF and ADCC tournaments, has particularly thrived under their guidance. Despite his young age, he is welcomed in the adult classes where he trains alongside me, his mother, and his older sister. The energy he brings to the class is appreciated by all, and it has been a joy to see our family bonding over jiu jitsu. Unfortunately, our positive experience has been marred by the behavior of the office manager, Enzo. This individual rarely visits the gym and when he does, he only engages with the parents of new customers, ignoring those of us who are already committed members. During one of his rare appearances, he observed a class where my son was participating with his family. His demeanor was unwelcoming, and he ultimately forced Fabio to tell my son that he could no longer join the adult classes. This decision was made in a manner that deeply upset my son, who was left crying and heartbroken. The other students were visibly disturbed by the manager's actions and voiced their support for my son. The lack of consideration and respect from the office manager has been disappointing, and despite the overwhelming support from the coaches and fellow students, there has been no effort from management to address or rectify the situation. It is disheartening to see such a negative impact on our experience due to the actions of one individual.
Omg the belt became such an issue. The way I was approached over the belt was a huge turnoff to me. My son will not be returning.
