Established in 1997, our academy provides instruction Gracie Jiu-Jitsu (also know as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Youth Martial Arts, Bullyproof Programs and Women's Self-Defense.
John, the instructor and owner, was a great teacher and welcoming host. I was travelling for business and training in his school during my stay. Part of the benefit of Gracie is once you are a member you can access other training centres part of the network. It is great to be welcomed somewhere during business trips. Great for ground game come check it out.
Posted 11 months agoI am a head instructor at GU in Torrance and was invited to teach a Seminar at John's school. I was welcomed with open arms and the facility was clean and professional. Staff, instructors and students are super friendly. I had a great time. GJJ Lexington has my full endorsement! Keep up the good work!
Posted 3 years agoI trained with John over the course of 2+ years and had a great experience while learning the art of Gracie JJ. John is a great communicator and very skilled at teaching every level of jiu jitsu.
Posted 9 months agoI was on a business trip in the area for a week and attended several Gracie Combatives classes. The facility was wonderful and very clean. John (owner/instructor) was welcoming, professional and made me, a short time visitor, wish I was staying in the area longer. He really fostered a great environment which was mirrored by several students I had pleasure of meeting and practicing with during my stay. I highly recommend this spot!
Posted 1 year agoI'm a former resident of Columbia that moved to Florida some years back. I started training BJJ there and when I recently visited Columbia to see family, I wanted to get in some training on Saturday morning. I contacted Sensei Carter about a drop-in and he was very welcoming. The academy is very nice and well-maintained. Everyone was so friendly and I picked up some great tips for my guillotine. It was such a great experience, I would certainly train more at this academy if I was in the area!
