Train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Spring Branch, at Gracie Barra. Build confidence, improve fitness, and learn self-defense in a supportive community.
We've had a wonderful experience at the Jiu Jitsu studio! The space is clean, well-maintained, and has a welcoming atmosphere. What really stood out to us was how friendly everyone was. As visiting students from another Gracie Barra location, we truly appreciated being welcomed in as guests and treated like part of the family. It’s rare to find a place that’s not only professional but also so genuinely warm. Thank you for your hospitality and for making us feel at home on the mats!

I'm over 50 and overweight. The instructors and students create a great atmosphere to learn and be challenged
My kids love training here. My oldest daughter appreciates their teaching style and guidance. With that, she has gained her confidence and achieved her goal of getting Gold in a tournament setting and counting. My son found his spark again when he started going here and has been undefeated in tournaments.
I've been a member of three BJJ schools and visited nearly a dozen others over the last several years. This place is by far the one that really works on making sure its members are part of the "family". GBSB has excellent, detailed, experienced instruction, and small enough classes for everyone to get what help they need. Kids classes are fun and a great way to keep the family together. I plan on putting my kids in them when they are old enough. The family that rolls together, holds together. Update: It has now been nearly 2 years since GBSB opened. This place only gets better. This is the best place to "smesh" faces and get faces "smeshed" . The curriculum is applicable to real life, self defense, and sport and hobbyist Jiu Jitsu. More than just basic Jiu Jitsu, this school covers all different aspects of grappling including wrestling and judo.
Great friendly, professional, place to train and improve your Jiu Jitsu skills and meet new friends.
Can't say enough about how great this academy is! Awesome instructors and a great group of people to train with. The lessons are detailed and thoughtful and follow a system that makes sense and allows everyone to evolve and have a complete understanding of how the moves work . Doesn't matter if you're a beginner or an advanced student, everyone works together and helps each other get to that next level. Highly recommend!
I absolutely love training at Gracie Barra Spring Branch. The instructors (James and Kevyn) are not only skilled and accomplished practitioners but also amazing teachers. They break down techniques in a way that's easy to understand, regardless of your skill level. Whether you're a beginner or have been practicing for years, you'll find value in every class. Most of all, the camaraderie among the members adds to the overall positive atmosphere of the gym. Everyone is supportive and welcoming and they’ve really created a community that feels like a family. I’ve made so many friends on the mats at GB Spring Branch. I would highly recommend to literally anyone.
Excellent place to train, top noch training by Professor James and Coach Kevyn. If you’re looking for a place to train and grow, I highly recommend paying us a visit. Jiujitsu is for everyone !!! See you on the mats soon !!!!
I love coming here, this place is great. Professor James and Coach Kevyn do an awesome job on teaching the concepts of BJJ.
I’ve been blessed to find this gym. The coaching is excellent and works to optimize each training session. The environment is family like and it has been easy to build bonds with training partners.
Great instructors, great facility, a sense of community, convenient location if you're in the BSB area. My son (7) and I both train here and look forward to it every day that we can make it.
Amazing place! I started here about three weeks ago with my kids. My kids were super shy and stuck to their Nintendo Switches and had too much energy at home and school. This place cured that. Professor James, Coach Hayley, and Coach Kevin went out of their way to make my kids feel welcome. My kids are showing huge gaines in confidence and are very proud of themselves. They sleep very well at night after class. I highly recommend Gracie Barra Spring Branch for yourself and your family. Oh, and they offer a free session to try it out. Just fyi.
Professor James and Coach Kevyn have put together a great school with a safe and fun learning environment! I really enjoy classes at GBSB and will enthusiastically bring my daughter here to train when she’s old enough!
Absolutely love the team at this gym. I recently stopped training due to a scheduling conflict and miss it intensely. The coaches, professor and other students feel like family and take training seriously. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone starting or looking for a better jiu jitsu experience.
Been training here since the beginning they have opened and if you’re on the fence on deciding if you should join let me tell you first. DON’T BE AFRAID! Me and my kiddos train here and we have nothing but positive things to say about this place. From the environment to the staff is just nothing but amazing! I can assure you that you will walk into an uplifting family friendly environment with a great coaching staff who are all excellent and knowledgeable in the art of BJJ. Come and try a free class. I can only talk so much but if you come I can promise you that you will feel welcomed into a community that feels like home away from home.
This place is the best. I train here along with my children and husband. When you come here you don't just get the best Jiu Jitsu training and knowledge, you get a community, friendship and so much more that pores out into your personal life. This place and this sport has been the best decision of my life!
Great place to train, nice clean gym, my kids and I feel very welcome.
I just moved here from Houston in July and absolutely love it here. BJJ is fir everyone. Come check us out
I have been training for over 4 years and recently started at this school when they first opened. The training schedules work with even the busiest and most overwhelmed individuals who want an hour to train, offering 6am, 11:30am, and 6pm classes. The training curriculum is intense, but it is a very welcoming community that allows people of all ages, sizes, and levels of experience to learn and develop their craft. The coaching staff takes seemingly complex moves and makes them easy for beginners to understand, and above all fun for them to learn and practice. It is an establishment that welcomes you the moment you walk in on your first day and will push you to grow, while at the same time taking careful consideration to avoid injury or make the environment too aggressive to the point that people leave. I myself heavily researched the schools that I wanted to train at, so if you are hesitant, I would encourage you to reach out via email or call. The staff will answer your questions without trying to pressure you into anything. Also gives discounts for military!
Great learning environment, great instructors and instruction. Great family atmosphere. Great way to be active. Beginning of an awesome community in Spring Branch, Tx
We've been training here since they opened. I can't say enough good things. My kids love Coach Kevyn and Professor James. I've trained in multiple gyms, and this is one of the best. The do a great job creating a team atmosphere. The facility is great. I would recommend this team to anyone from beginner on up.
My son (14) trains at this gym. They are invested in helping him be his best self. We have really seen him come into his own since he began training here. Would recommend to anyone looking for a fun and supportive environment for themselves or their children.
I love this place! The instructors are great, the community is patient and friendly, and the facilities are clean. I’ve trained at a lot of gyms over the years, but this one feels like home. Come roll with us!
Fantastic place to train! Profs. James and Kevyn are great teachers and mentors. Beginners will feel comfortable here, and those with experience will have plenty of opportunities to grow. I highly recommend GB Spring Branch!
From the day that I started training prof. James has been one of my mentors and has always been willing to take time out of his day to train with me, mentor me, and answer any questions that I’ve had. He has been instrumental in my growth as a jiu jitsuka and as a person. He went from being a coach to one of my friends and I would recommend him to anyone who is looking to train. Kevyn has also been an awesome teammate and someone who I’ve always enjoyed training with Whether you’re a hobbyist or a competitor I know that Kevyn and James will create a place that you will love training at and that will become a second home. I couldn’t recommend them more.
Most of what keeps an athlete training in an Academy is more than just the instruction. It’s the culture and relationships that make up the Academy. GB Spring Ranch is one of those places where you will find that culture and the group of people you will want to know forever. If you’re a hobbyist or a competitor, there’s a place at GB Spring Ranch for you. If it’s for you, or your little ones, the experience that the team can provide is rarely matched. I moved away from the San Antonio area almost a year ago and I still keep in touch with this group. A group that has expanded their knowledge and expertise from under the amazing tutelage encompassed at GB San Antonio and GB Boerne. I had to cut this post off because I could go on and on about the amazing experience this place has to offer. Check it out for the Jiujitsu, stick around for the tradition. 🤙🏽
I am new to this area and decided to join the Gracie Barra family. I am so grateful for how friendly and welcoming the whole team have been. From the moment I walked in, I felt at home.
I’m pretty excited to have a Gracie Barra training facility near my home and to receive training from Professor James’ background in wrestling, Jiu Jitsu and grappling makes this new location even better. Although my training with professor James has been limited, I have used his takedowns in competition to get me a gold medal.
I have personally trained w and been taught by the team running this gym. Professor James is knowledgeable, enthusiastic and most importantly fun to be in class with. Coach Kevyn and Coach Haley personally assisted in my growth as a competitor and the art of being a good training partner. I started jujitsu in my mid 40s w my 4 kids and this team had been a big part of our growth.
