Great place I never worked like this in my life
If you're looking to get into Jiu-Jitsu, Gracie Barra Orlando is hands down one of the best gyms in the world. The talent here is unmatched, and I am incredibly grateful for my decision to start training here. Professor Jamisin is the perfect instructor for intro classes, especially for street self-defense. His teaching style made the learning process easy and enjoyable. If you're ready to change your life, don’t wait, sign up today! Five stars all the way!
Professor Jameson and the team are kind and professional. They really give the kids confidence and treat them with respect. They are a pleasure to work with and the environment is great.
The best in the business! Great welcoming atmosphere to ALL levels.
Hey y’all! I’m from Fort Myers Gracie Barra, and I have been visiting many different bjj gyms during my break from college and I have to say Gracie Barra Orlando is one of the best places to train to learn valuable jiu jitsu. There are many highly qualified instructors among the staff and the people that train here are some of the most welcoming and kind individuals I have met on and off the mats. If you ever wanted to learn jiu jitsu and see what this sport has to offer, come train here!!!!
This review is long overdue...I trained here with a friend as out of town guests and the instruction, environment, and facilities are all top notch! Great and positive group of training partners led by amazing teachers. Thank you for the instruction and rolls! The facility is so clean, the locker rooms and showers were impressive. We will drop in when in town again!
The facilities and professors/coaches are 10/10. We are regular visitors to the area and glad we have found these and will continue to use them. We arranged privates between myself and my brother with professor Jamisin as well as between professor Jamisin and my daughter. He is an exceptional teacher and was very patient with us being newbies to the sport, he adapted each session to match our current abilities while also pushing us to do better every-time. My daughter loved training with him, her sessions were fun but also very informative and she learned a-lot. She also joined in some of the kids classes which are exceptional as well. I would definitely recommend.
Grate place, good environment. Best decision ever. Friendly and well maintained. I totally recommend.
I am co-owner of my own academy in O’Fallon, MO. Having trained in wrestling, judo, kickboxing and now Jiu Jitsu for 16 years, I can say without hesitation, GB Orlando is an amazing academy. Welcoming and professional!!
I visit a lot of BJJ gyms all over the nation. Probably 5 plus a year. This GB was so welcoming! The skills and technique showed during class were very solid. When you walk into a BJJ gym (especially as a black belt) you never know how you're going to be "welcomed". They either want to try and destroy you or they treat you with respect and humility. This gym welcomed us with open arms and showed my family and teammates with open arms! You will love this gym!
The best Jiu-Jitsu School in Orlando, I felt that I was in the home, the coaches have a lot of attention with the students and there are some levels for the train since the most basic for the pro athletes 🤩
I started training at Gracie Barra Orlando last year because I wanted to learn kickboxing/self defense as well as get in shape for a personal goal I had which was joining the United States Marine Corps. I trained several months with coach Jameson to prepare for bootcamp and I can’t even begin to explain how much this gym and coach Jameson has impacted my life and helped me reach my goals. Not only was I learning self defense and enjoying every second of it but coach Jameson also help push me physically and mentally and improved my overall fitness. When I first signed up with Gracie Barra I was no where near where I needed to be physically and mentally. Over the several months with coach Jameson I took my 3 mile time down from 23 minutes to 18 minutes, my pull-ups from 10 to 25 and my plank from 3 minutes to 3:45 (this is the physical fitness test for the marines) he help me maximize my fitness test, build strength, skill and confidence through martial arts and got me into the best physical condition of my life. I will forever be grateful for this gym and coach Jameson for helping me achieve my Goals in life and help me on my journey to becoming a United States Marine
Amazing school thank you so much!
My 7 year old son has been doing Jiu-Jitsu in New Jersey for 2 years. I’ve sat through many many classes.! We stopped at Gracie Barra for a dropped class while we are visiting Orlando and I was extremely impressed with this school. The professors run the class in a very structured manor and made sure each child understood the moves and executed them perfectly! I’d suggest anybody looking to sign up their child, this is the place!!!!
Great enviroment and Great trainers and Its a very good place to learn jiu Jitsu
Trained today with professor Jamisin. Thank you for being a welcoming academy. Appreciate your hospitality. Kavan
Very cool gym , neat and clean, huge mat area for rolls. Coach Roger it’s very skilled and friendly. I do recommend if you’re looking for a place to learn, make friends and progress in your bjj. They also have competition training if you want to push to another level!
This is a great school. The professors are knowledgeable and push you. Head Instructor Prof Roger is competing at a high level, and has a great way of breaking down positions. Prof Ray has deep knowledge and something that draws students at 6am. Everyone here is trying to help you get better. Three of my kids and I have been training here for years. The level keeps going up. Fit classes, striking classes, Gi, No Gi, Judo, competition classes, movement classes. If you have not tried this academy, you are missing out! Update: it is a special school that has 7-9 black belts that show up to classes and push everyone. This is a different academy.
Awesome facility (very clean and prefessional,, awesome staff and teachers very welcoming and down to earth. I’m very new to jui jitsu(3 weeks in) While on vacation I did a drop on gi class and a private lesson. Both 100% worth it. Learned so much just from the 2 days I attended. 110% recommendation
Great place to train, very welcoming, clean and amazing coaches!
Definitely one of the best BJJ academy I’ve ever been. Professor Hymundo an exceptional teacher, thank you for all the reception and hope to see you really soon here in Orlando! Ossaaaa
Excellent training. Very clean, respectful gym. Lots of high level players and coaches.
Professor Ray is top notch. Great practitioner, holds a high bar for technique but is flexible and meets the student where they are. Great facility as well. Thanks professor.
Fui muito bem recebido! Excelente academia, com ótimos profissionais!🙏🙏.
My kids love the coaches They are best !!!
Such an amazing experience for my 7 year old son who started classes a month ago. The professors and coaches are high energy and committed to making sure each student gets attention and enjoys the class. I love how they teach self control and they take each class seriously. My son absolutely loves going each day! I wish I had signed my son up sooner!
Amazing training and atmosphere
Excellent facility, great community, strong training. Will stop by anytime I am in town.
I was out visiting Orlando and needed a place to train. Typically I train at Gracie Barra Agora Hills CA. Everyone at Orlando was happy to train and I was welcomed with open arms. Professor Jerry and Roger were wonderful to work with and I highly recommend training with this group of men and women! Thank you for the wonderful experience, I will be back again anytime I visit Orlando!
Gracie Barra is amazing, you absolutely need to train here. The place is beautiful, the team is amazing, and I can't say enough about the whole team, especially professor Roger. If you are thinking of self defense for yourself or for your kid's you absolutely need to come here. The whole experience was amazing!
Great class. Loved the environment and the way they made us feel so welcome!! Highly recommended OSS
great gym great team love the gym i would 10 out of 10 recommend for your first bjj gym
I had the honor of training with Professor Roger and Professor Jerry with my rolling partner and it was one of the best experiences I have ever had. I learned so many techniques and had the privilege to roll with both of the Professor's. I am very thankful to have had that opportunity to train under both of them, Thank you for the experience!!
Dropped in while visiting town for work. Great training, great instruction, great jiu jitsu, great people. Great gym for beginners and long-time competitors alike!
First time visiting and there were 7 professors to keep us 3 visitors comfortable. I have visited dozens of GB schools across the USA and this school ranks among the best. Clean, great culture, easy going atmosphere. Highly recommend if you’re visiting the theme parks or living in the Orlando area. Thank you all
Great competition class training! Professor Roger managed an amazing class and is very knowledgeable in the art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
Gracie Barra Orlando is a great Academy to train Jiu Jitsu at. It is a phenomenal experience, training with partners I have not shared the mats with! I highly recommend Gracie Barra Orlando to everyone who wants to begin or advance their Jiu Jitsu journey... Yes, Jiu Jitsu is for Everyone!!! 🙂👍👊💪🥋🔺️👊💯
Today I got the opportunity to train at Gracie Barra. I cannot say enough good things about this school. Clean, respectful, good school for experienced and non experienced.
Was here for a work conference, I normally train at a GB and GB Orlando didn't dissappoint. I was welcomed after walking in the door and made to feel at home. The training was tough and Professor Roger gave instruction like I was one of his students. HIGHLY Recommend
Experiência única!! Atletas e treinadores incríveis em um treino de alta competência!! Unique experience!! Incredible athletes and coaches in a high-competence training!!
Outstanding place to train. They allowed me to visit while in town for work and provided a great training facility, great instruction (pointing out important details that allow for efficient/effective movements), and great training partners that provided informative feedback and were very skilled. I highly recommend checking them out when in Orlando. God bless the school.
Roger Santos was amazed he made me feel welcomed and made me feel at home. I love this place! Whenever I’m in town I’ll come here
Fantastic facilities. Great people. Great training !!!
Dropped in while on vacation and I was welcomed with open arms. Everyone was super friendly and the professor was very knowledgeable. Class was challenging without overdoing it. I definitely plan on coming back and recommend giving this school a try.
Amazing atmosphere, instructors and students. Everyone is very welcoming.
Dropped in for open mat. Had a great experience, great rolls and everyone was very friendly. Will definitely be back.
I trained here for about two months before sustaining an injury (not their fault, it’s part of the sport). They were very understanding and worked with me on pausing my membership, even giving me a credit for the month I was charged but could not train. I will be returning after I recover.
Fantastic facility! In town for a family vacation and of course had to get my training in. Very nice and welcoming group during the 6am class that I attended. Great instruction. Very large mat space, clean locker room/showers. Will definitely return when I’m back in town!
I was vacationing in Orlando and looking for a good place to train and do a few rolls. This is the perfect place for that! Jerry (the guy that welcomed me) was very nice, very talented and overall an awesome dude. On top of that the Academy itself was top class with good practicioners and great mats. I was pleased to meet everyone there and hope to visit again next time I am on vacation!
Awesome place , I came in from out of town and they welcomed me like family!!!
Big thank you to the crew at Gracie Barra Orlando! Great to visit “family” when you’re on the road!
Got to take 2 free classes… WOW. Awesome experience and got to learn so much. 10/10 would definitely get a membership if I didn’t have to move away so soon.
Great atmosphere, friendly and welcoming, also very competitive if that’s what you’re looking for, Professor Roger has great technical knowledge and pushes you to your limits.
Looking to join soon. Loved the Hyannis ma one.
Was on a work trip in Orlando and stopped by for a class. Everyone was very welcoming and cool and the class was great!
Recebido como se fosse de casa já! Aula top level e bem puxada como deve ser!! Seguindo toda a doutrina GB. Respeito demais ao Roger e toda a família GB Orlando. OSS
Amazing environment! Everyone is so friendly and professional. The classes are sure to get every ounce of energy out of you in the best way possible! 10/10 recommended!
Had so much fun visiting from the Georgetown, TX locality! They received us with such a warm welcome! Great training session too!
I was visiting Orlando with my wife who was at a medical practitioner conference Jun 15-17. I was looking for a gym to roll at and got a hold of these guys. I paid the $25 drop in fee each day and and trained 2-3 classes per day, I learned a lot of great technique, got a good work out and the instructors and other students were very welcoming and patient. (I’d only been training for about 1.5months). My grappling club in Pierre, SD only has 2 blue belts for instructors, so it was awesome to be able to roll with black belts and brown belts. I highly recommend had a great experience. My main interaction was with Roger Santos who was very good coach and worked with me one on one some even though I wasn’t a full time student.
Absolutely amazing school. Been training BJJ for almost 15 years and this is one of the best schools I've been to. Clean, great facilities, and incredible training. Highly recommend you stop by here.
Warm welcoming group in a fun atmosphere👍
Dropped in tonight for some rolls. Great people and great jujitsu!
Visited this school super fun rolls and lots of good people like it
GBO Orlando is the best! The professors push you hard to be the best that you can be. It is a great place where everyone loves BJJ and put their hearts out that it makes it for a great atmosphere to be in. It's great to be a part of the GBO family.
These are my people! GBO has become a family and so helpful to a person that’s new to an active lifestyle. Instructors are knowledgeable and members are cool. Come join and know you’re in good hands!
Great experience! Must do when you want to learn & train , new or experienced!
When I first moved to Orlando I was looking for a place that I can call my second home. At the naga tournament I was competing for a different academy when I saw professor Bruno wearing a Gracie Barra shirt. He helped me out coaching my match and then I hung out with the GB crew after that. I'm current a brown belt one stripe and I feel very fortunate to be a part of a great team that has an amazing facility and also an incredible team of instructors. If you are visit Orlando or live in the Orlando area please check us out and make us a visit.
Gracie Barra Orlando is by far one of the best Jiu-jitsu academies I've visited. Some teammates and I from Renzo Gracie New Hampshire were down in the Orlando area for the IBJFF PANs competition and were in search of a place to train away from home. Their facilites are top-notch, well equiped, and very clean, but most importantly, very welcoming. Professors Roger and Jerry were gracious hosts. The moment we walked through the door, they made us feel like we were a part of their team. The same can be said for the teammates at Gracie Barra Orlando, while training not once did I feel like an outsider to the academy. I would highly recommend this location to anyone in the area looking for a home academy to train out of or somebody on the road in need of a place to drop in for a few sessions.
Been here for just about a year and I’m Very happy I chose this school. Great professors and coaches. Professor Roger and Jerry have been a great help in all aspects. Plus the students are great as well with the team environment, helping each other out improve.
Professor Roger is an exceptional teacher who showed me such great hospitality opening the mats for me to help prepare for the Pans. Great place to train if you live in the area and a great place to visit when on Orlando if you need a place to train.
Thank you Professor Roger and the entire team for your hospitality, great class and training You must visit this school when you are in Orlando
Came down to this amazing academy to train for the Pan-Am championship from Renzo Gracie NH. Professor Roger along with others welcomed my teammates and I with open arms and made it feel like we were at home! Very nice and genuine people at this academy which can be hard to find in this sport especially coming from a different academy.
The big respect GB Orlando thank you professor Roger good Jiu Jitsu osss
Great class, place is amazing and everybody was so friendly. Thanks so much…
Great community. Big & clean facility with weights and heavy bags as well. The professors & coaches here are next level, Roger, Jerry, Dimitri, Bruno, Salenco, and many others, bring unique perspectives to the mat. Whether you’re looking to try it out for the first time or looking to level up & fine tune your craft, this is the place!
Roger Santos and his crew are the real deal. I've been to a lot of academies in Orlando and this place is legit. I come from Renzo in New Jersey and the pressure I got here was no joke. If you want to learn from a real academy you must come here.
This place is great. I have had tons of fun learning from the professors. Tons of knowledge and great attitude for the sport
I have never felt so welcome at an academy as at Gracie Barra Orlando. It is a world class academy, tremendous facilities, very clean place, excellent professors and athletes of all ranks. A very welcoming environment. Professor Roger introduces us to effective techniques and excellent drills. Professor Jerry is very attentive to visitors and to his students. I really appreciate the experience of training with you, Professor Roger, Professor Jerry, Professor Ray and all the other Professors and training partners. I recommend them 100%. If you want to learn self defense, train to compete, be healthy and have good company, this is the place.
I like this place more than I like my own house. I’ve gained more confidence, made more friends, and lost some weight all while having a great time. The staff is beyond awesome too!
Excelente entrenamiento y tremendos profesionales, buenas rolas y todo limpio
It’s amazing place, my kids loved training every day. They’re look like a family for us!
Professor Roger, coaches, staff and students here are top notch! Super welcoming and excellent teachers for my two daughters when we came to visit from GB Long Beach. 100000% would recommend and come back!
Amazing culture! I love it here!
One of the nicer BJJ facilities I’ve ever been to. Everything looks new based on how clean it was, and every staff member/professor made a point to speak with me and couldn’t be more friendly. I took a trial day and I’d recommend this place already, 1st impressions convinced me to join.
I started at Gracie Barra Orlando a few weeks ago. I was welcomed by everyone on my first day here and immediately felt at home. There is a Family atmosphere here and I come every chance I can. The professors always take their time to teach you things to make you feel comfortable in the techniques. I’m so glad I found GB Orlando and i look forward to training here for many years to come!
We had the chance to train at Gracie Barra Orlando for few days while on vacation in Orlando and was an amazing experience .Thank you Jerry and Roger for the opportunity and hope see you guys soon.
Great environment and the professors are always attentive to new students who need that extra push or technical adjustment. Would highly suggest to anyone in the Orlando area to try!
Hey I'm at Gracie Baja today on Saturday I had an awesome time good Great atmosphere good people I definitely be back Thank you so much Gracie Baja Orlando Florida
I am from the Atlanta Georgia area and was in Orlando for work. Professor Roger and everyone made me feel very welcome. I look forward to coming back to the Gym the next time I am in town and would suggest checking them out if you are in the area.
Amazing hospitality and great blocks of instruction, super clean facility and friendly instructors and students!
Great school and hard rolls
Came in to train on vacation. They had a gi for me to borrow and good morning class times so I could get it done before the family woke up. Great training partners, friendly people, and great teaching from Professor Bruno. Definitely a good place to train.
I was looking for a BJJ gym in Orlando where I can learn and also get ready for competition. Jerry invited me to come and check put a class. I was greeted with a warm welcome and after my first class I was hooked. If your looking to train serious or just to get in shape, come through and train. If your a parent looking for a fun and safe activity for your child/children, they also offer kids classes. I was definitely recommended everyone come train here. Very professional team.
They do everything here Jiu Jitsu, striking, workouts. This academically is amazing, clean facilities, family friendly environment. The staff are excellent and professional, highly recommend coming here to train whether your just visiting or here for the long haul it’s worthwhile to visit.
This is been a amazing experience for me a huge change in my daily routine body and mind. I recommend it for everyone if you’re looking for a change in your life this is the place.. the instructor have the knowledge and the experience to guide you to your journal in this sport. I love jiu-jitsu 💕
First and foremost I’d like to thank Professor Roger Santos and his team for taking me in for a no gi class while I was in town. The is a great school with greater people. If you’re interested in BJJ and are in the Orlando area I would highly recommend them. Fast paced fun and fundamental BJJ with great people. They were very welcoming and it was a privilege to work with them. I most certainly will make other visits while in town. Thank you!
I came to Orlando for vacation with my family and I had the awesome opportunity and experience of training at Gracie Barra Orlando, and meeting Prof. Roger, his staff, and students. From the first moment I walked in and stepped foot on the mats, they made me feel like home. If you live in Orlando or are just visiting, I highly recommend you to come to this school to enjoy great vibes, camaraderie, and top notch jiu jitsu. Oss! Daniel Garcia
Visiting from out of town and they welcomed me and another team member with open arms 🙌🏽 Means a lot for the BJJ community that people like this are around. Awesome instructors and classmates and higher belts willing to help even when it’s late.
I really appreciate the amount of one-on-one sparring time here. Over 30 minutes of one-on-one practice doing actual grappling with the experience and knowledge that you have to get used to escaping different holds from different members. In the beginner class, we focused on learning just two techniques from the start and the grappling. I hope to learn more escapes and movements in the future.
Horrible experience from start to finish. Even after we cancelled because our daughter no longer wanted to do it they kept charging me. Instructors seem nice, but whoever runs the membership part is terrible. If you are on the fence about doing this but just want to try it, pick a different place.
