Gracie Barra Jiu-Jitsu Academy West LA

Been training here for a year now and I love it. I love training here because of the environment. It’s perfectly balanced between being welcoming and competitive at the same time. I don’t have a wrestling team at my high school so the people here have also made me feel like I’m part of a team. The professors, AJ Agazarm and Denis Wood, have been doing martial arts for their entire life and have served as a role model to me. I love training here and don’t plan to stop any time soon

Attending classes here has been an incredibly rewarding experience. The coaches are not only knowledgeable, but also extremely supportive, providing personalized guidance to help me improve. Fellow class members create a welcoming and encouraging atmosphere, making each session enjoyable and motivating. Overall, I’m very happy with my progress and the sense of community at the studio. You won’t be disappointed with your experience here!

My kids (8 & 6) both attend class here and really love it. They are very different kids with different approaches to sports - one does it 'just for fun and exercise' and the other one really wants to 'train to compete' - and they both get a lot out of each class. We tried multiple kids jiu jitsu classes around LA before choosing where to commit to and we found the specificity of training, the enthusiasm and talent of the coaches and the quality of the classes to truly be the best here.

We have been attending GBJJ for almost a year now and I have nothing but wonderful things to tell! My son adores his AMAZING coaches, the schedule is flexible, and the place is run professionally. I have seen so much discipline and progress in my son’s ability to practice JJ in the past year and we owe it all to the fantastic team st GBJJ.

Everyone here is very friendly and inviting. Great environment and extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I would recommend GB West LA to anyone looking to get into Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. See you in class!
