I visited Gracie One from out of town. The staff and members were uniformly friendly and the instructors are clearly knowledgeable. Mason, in particular, answered my technique questions in an extremely helpful way. I plan to drop whenever we visit the area.
Took a BJJ class at Gracie ONE today as a beginner and the staff/instructors were all friendly and made it easy for me. There was an overall posture of learning which was great. Def. enjoyed the experience. The other people in the class were also friendly.
Top notch coaches. If your thinking about starting Jiu-Jitsu this is the place.
Gracie One is our second home! Our 4-year old son attends the Future Champions class 4x per week, and I attend a women’s only Jiu Jitsu and self defense class 2x per week. Let me tell you all the things I love! 1) The professors and coaches. Shout out to Professor Jeff and Professor Mason for their expertise, dedication, and sheer love for Jiu Jitsu and every child and adult that walks through the door. We love you guys!!! 2) The facility is clean and inviting. 3) It’s a wonderful community of parents, kids, and educators. 4) Our son has learned a unique sense of self confidence and respect that we can only attribute to Jiu Jitsu. 5) We are all learning life long skills in a nurturing yet firm environment. All in all, we love Gracie One. Sign up for a trial, take a class…you won’t be disappointed!
Great place to help your child learn discipline and grow stronger.
Jeff, Mason and the team do a great job building confidence, jujitsu skills and engaging the kids in their classes. Highly recommend.
The kids absolutely love this place. The teaching is great. Learning respect, kindness and helping each other learn and get better. 5 stars all around!
We love Gracie One so much! Professors Jeff and Mason are so good with the kids and I can tell my daughter is learning techniques that will help her not only in self defense, but discipline and focus as well! 10 out of 10 would recommend
Best BJJ gym in Dallas, hands down. Excellent coaching, great community, and a beautiful environment for growth.
The staff here is great, my daughter loves it.
We love Gracie One! My 5 year old son has blossomed in the Future Champions program. He has developed discipline, coordination, focus, and the ability to work toward a goal.
Been going for 2yrs Great instructors, everyone is genuinely happy to be there
Great gym with a great group of people. Both the adults and kids classes are outstanding. Highly recommend for new or experienced individuals.
Amazing gym! I came here for my first time today and Mason coached me. He was really kind and helpful, I really liked it and would recommend it to anyone
I’ve been so impressed with the progress my kids have made in just a couple of weeks of Jiu Jitsu! Not only has their physical coordination improved, but their confidence has skyrocketed. It’s incredible to see them take on challenges with a positive attitude and a strong sense of discipline. The structure and focus in class have really made a difference in how they approach both their training and their daily routines. I’m excited to see how much more they grow in this journey. Highly recommend this gym
Very ONE of a kind gym and community with linneage descending from the Gracie family directly. Excellent professors who provide up to 15 classes a week and accommodate all schedules and levels. Membership is straightforward, monthly fee and full access to all classes. Kids classes are right before adult classes so it can be a fun activity for the whole family. This is a truly family owned business where everyone is welcome and everyone practices Jiu Jitsu in a very safe and appropriate manner without compromising on the self defense skills that are absolutely bulletproof. Those who have been with the gym longer are extremely capable but take an active role in helping junior members like myself out. Give them a try - you will find yourself learning valuable skills, getting a great work out and improving your overall health
Gracie One is the perfect place to bring your children, especially if they are on the younger side. Professor Jeff and coaches Mason and Keagan are all great with kids and have plenty of patience. The 415 class is for ages 3-5 which ensures that your child is with others their age, and not intimidated by older classmates. Very clean, welcoming, and professional environment.
Stopped by for a class and some rolls back in April while in town for a few days and was greeted with smiles and open arms! Mason was teaching and did an awesome job! Will definitely be coming back if I’m ever back in the area!
Gracie One is an outstanding Jiu Jitsu gym that excels in teaching both self-defense and the art of Gracie Jiu Jitsu. The instructors are highly skilled and passionate, creating a welcoming environment for practitioners of all levels. My kids love the kids Jiu Jitsu classes, which are not only fun but also instill discipline and confidence. Whether you’re looking to learn self-defense techniques or want to dive deep into Gracie Jiu Jitsu, Gracie One is the place to be. Highly recommend!
Our 7 year old started taking classes about 6 months ago. We have seen significant growth in his confidence, focus, discipline, and persistence. The skills he is learning and consistently practicing at GracieOne are transferring to other areas of his life, which is the real win. I have since started taking classes myself and am never looking back 🙂 Our family cannot recommend GracieOne enough. The professors and coaches are educated, passionate, and hold the students accountable in such a kind and respectful manner. We are so happy to be part of this community.
We love Gracie One! My 5 year old son loves training here and has grown so much in confidence over the past few months. They instill discipline while providing great instruction in a safe environment.
We love coming to Jiu Jitsu. We’ve seen a new level of confidence in our child and are happy with the results. We’ve been here for two months and can tell the major difference in him. We appreciate the coaches and staff for their readiness to help answer questions and how interactive they are with the children.
The best Jiu Jitsu Academy. We have had a Great experience!! Awesome experience, warm welcome, challenging and overall would recommend this gym to anyone who’s looking to have the kids in active activity.
Great experience! Came and dropped in to check it out and it was amazing! Awesome experience, warm welcome, high intensity, challenging and overall would recommend this gym to anyone who’s looking.
Great Jiu Jitsu classes. My 10 yr old son has grown in his skills and respect towards the sport and the people around him. It's challenging physically and mentally. The instructors are patient and great at working with kids of all ages.
Gracie one is a honest and professional institution of the martial knowledge of grappling. In the few months I've been with them I've always felt welcome and accomplished with the training, though everyone is at a different point in they're BJJ journey everyone had understood that they were there to get better. This sportsmanship and down to earth nature was no mistake as this is cultivated by all of the instructors to make it a good learning environment for everyone. The contacts they have can seem intimidating but its just the first step in your long process to get better and your not really signing up with a big mega corporation that doesn't see you your signing with the reasonable and understanding people of the academy so all I can say is don't be afraid and get started as soon as you can they'd be happy to have you.
I visited the gym today and took the class (advanced GI) taught by the professor Jeff. The class was great and people were very nice. Great environment and a lot to learn!!
Great place to learn self defense Positive environment and friendly staff! 2 years!!!
Literally the best Jiu Jitsu academy Dallas has to offer! Both my boys aged 5 & 4 attend and you can really see the difference in their practice since they started with Gracie one. I highly recommend the professors here, in each class they have older & more advanced students assisting the younger ones. This helps the younger students and at the same time adds confidence to the older ones helping. Genius!
My son absolutely loves his time at Gracie One. Great experience all around.
My husband and son take classes at Gracie One. They love it!!!
This place is great. They have a super friendly staff and there’s a welcoming atmosphere every time I go. High recommended!
Took my kids to their first class and they loved it! Signing them up !
I was in town working for the week. Professor Clint allowed me to come in and train all week. Very welcoming and professional gym. Really enjoyed training with them.
The improvement with the program was great. With the changes a great increase in kids and adults.
We started at this gym when they first opened the Preston Rd location. Unfortunately we left for a few months to pursue a more MMA environment and soon regretted it. Nothing compares to the all around professionalism and kindness from everyone at this gym. We are so happy we returned. The kids are loving it here and have already learned so much! Update: We're still really happy with the choice we made to return. All the professors are great to the kids!
Perfect blend of discipline and self-care. The beat martial arts experience I've ever had.
My Family and I have loved bring a Gracie One since the beginning. Great opportunities to learn Brazilian jiu, practical self-defense techniques armed and unarmed. We've learned so much and are eager to learn much more. Check it out! You won't be disappointed!
Great place!
Fantastic kids and adult classes. I’ve trained elsewhere and Gracie One is a great experience.
We learned about Gracie One from our neighbors and haven’t been disappointed. Prof. Jeff is great!
Love this place. The professors (Prof Jeff, Prof Mason) have built this community like no other for the kids. Both my boys started this summer and other than the new martial art moves that they've acquired, I can see this Academy building their self confidence, social skills and self discipline. Highly recommend!
we love gracione, a big family. The teachers are simply the best!
It has been absolutely wonderful for our boys.
Amazing Jiu-jítsu gym I have been to. Super clean and spacious, love the class and professors are the best! They are definitely the best!
I dropped in last minute while on a work trip and they were instantly accommodating. They even provided me a loaner gi (Fuji) and it has actually made me want one. The professor Clint was informative and charismatic. I learned a technique during instruction that I hadn't known in 3 years of practicing. Also had a great time getting smashed by one of their black belts, Mason. Great rolls, porrada!
Very welcoming. Lots of fun. Good workout!
Found this amazing school on Google. Came from out of town and everyone was very welcoming. Definitely stopping by when I visit Dallas! 11/10
Gracie One really is a terrific jiu jitsu academy for all ages and skill levels. I’ve been training at Gracie One for about 9 months now and love it. It’s incredibly welcoming and starts to feel like a family very quickly! The adult program draws in men and women across a range of ages, experience levels and backgrounds. Whether you are into Jiu Jitsu for self defense, a general love of martial arts and knowledge, or are an ex-wrestler looking for a way to grapple again, there is a place for you here.
My experience at Gracie One has been very welcoming. This location is full of individuals who are willing to help you grow within the art, no matter what skill level or age you may be. The staff and team have genuine care for all members. Highly recommend this location!
Our 3.5 year old son has been coming to the future champions sessions for about 5 months now. He absolutely loves coming here and looks forward to every class (and we come 4 times a week). Professors Jeff and Mason make it so fun for the kids - teaching jiu jitsu in an age appropriate manner. Not only are the kids learning self defense moves, but they are given opportunities to build their confidence! We have really enjoyed meeting the other families and seeing their kids progress through the program (from being participants, to helpers, etc). Watching our son develop new skills and have the confidence to volunteer in class has been very rewarding, as he always been more of an observer. Jeff is hilarious and makes the classes so fun for parents watching so that's an added bonus!
I love it, I’m getting stronger
Excellent kids program. Our son love it and his technical skills have significantly improved in a short time. The professors (Jeff and Mason) are great with kids, consistent and build healthy mental habits. The program is so good my husband recently started in the adult program and also loves it.
Awesome gym with an exceptional children's program. Our son had been attending G1 for 6+ months and the professors run a fantastic kid's program - disciplined but fun/caring and the kids learn actual BJJ in a structured way in addition to all the other benefits that come with learning a martial art.
Gracie one Academy I can say will definitely be my home. Not only are the professors amazing and welcoming, but are very knowledgeable. They break all techniques down until it is learned. Create an amazing atmosphere as well care for true growth . Everyone there that trains are welcoming and make it extremely fun.
I got a chance to try one of Professor Clint Bounds. Great facility, super welcoming, and very clear step- by- step instructions. Highly recommend!!
I have been training bjj for four years and have visited many different gyms to cross train. My experience here was great. I attended a class at Gracie One at the recommendation of a friend. The instant I walked in, I got a big smile from Professor Jeff welcoming me and setting me up for class. The gym is clean, has showers and a locker room, and plenty of space around the edges of the mat. Professors Clint and Randy gave me a warm handshake and welcome upon entering the mat space, and we proceeded upon the day’s lesson. The other students there grabbed me right away, and invited me to drill. The energy here is a good one, and I appreciated the attention to detail with both professors offering tips to tighten my movements. After class, I had a great conversation with professor Clint talking about each of our backgrounds and families. As I gathered my bag to go back to real world work, he made sure to let me know that I was always welcome to come back. Sometimes it’s the small gestures that impress you the most. Here, from the walk in to the front desk and to the final steps leading out the exit, the atmosphere here is a fantastic one. Clean and efficient gym facilities. Check. Great jitsu. Check. Treating your members like family*(*the kind of family you like!) Check. Thanks so much to everyone at Gracie One for an awesome training experience.
Stopped here while traveling through Dallas. So glad I did! Very welcoming group of guys and the instruction and rolls are top notch! Thanks for letting me join y’all for the day!
I recently started training here to get in shape over the summer and my expectations for what a workout could be were drastically exceeded. The instruction is clear and easy to follow. All the mats are very clean and the professors are extremely helpful. There is no description of skill level or experience. My experience here has been nothing but warm and welcoming. I've recently earned my second strip on my white belt and have no plans to stop training any time soon!!!
The recent mass shooting in Allen was about a mile from my house and I was overseas. This event opened my eyes that my family is not prepared for an event like this, so I reached out to an old friend who is an expert in handling defensive preparedness, Randy Rozzell, who happens to be a retired Navy Seal. My wife and I did the level one pistol course last Sunday with Randy. The course is great for any level of experience. I grew up with firearms, and I learned so much in this course, as I have never trained with a master. This isnt going to a range and poking paper. It is about self-defense, manuevers under stress and building confidence in your skills. For all the people who travel and leave their families often, this is great for your spouses. Everytime my wife trains with Randy, whether it is hand to hand self defense or weapons training, she leaves empowered and confident in her ability to handle herself in a difficult situation. And I feel better about being gone.
The kids I watch take lessons here. The discipline and confidence they have learned in such a short period is amazing. I look forward to seeing continued growth on and off the mat.
Such a community of people! The big kids help the littler kids! They all have fun, and my 5year old loves it! Helps teach discipline and builds confidence.
Awesome school!!! I was visiting Dallas for business and the owner allowed me to train there as long as I was there. Very professional and welcoming atmosphere. Can’t wait to be in Dallas to train with you again !! Thank you much !!
I'd give this gym more stars if I could. I was in Dallas for 2 months and happened upon Gracie One because it was the closest gym to my hotel. Called them up one day to see if they allowed drop-ins and Professor Clint answered the phone and said to come by. You'll be hard pressed to find a more welcoming BJJ gym in my opinion. I made some good friends and found some great rolls while I was in Dallas these last 2 months. I hoped to return the favor one day if ever anyone from this gym ends up in Colorado. Thanks again, Professors Clint, Randy, and Jeff and Coaches Mason and Mario! It was more than I could have hoped for during my time in Dallas.
Great folks. Enjoyed my time here, and will be back. They are great with beginners and make you feel comfortable. They understand that daily life gets in the way and are accommodating if you have to arrive late or leave early.
I joined the gym in December 2022 with no prior martial arts experience and it has been a great place to learn the fundamentals of jiu-jitsu. The instructors and fellow members have been welcoming and very informative. I highly recommend to both experienced and new people interested in joining!
Visiting from out of town and went to visit Gracie One in Dallas. This place offers world class training, but they also made the class super fun! I had booked a private, but unfortunately hurt myself in an unrelated incident so I was unable to attend it (so sorry) I will definitely be back!! Thanks again for the awesome experience!
This is a special place. The instruction is detailed and practical, there's a plenty of sparring options ranging from competition-level training to more gentle/relaxed rolling, and Gracie One's culture is to uplift/improve all vs. a fight club. Worth a try!
I’ve trained a few places before and I love it here. The instructors and students do a great job of facilitating an inclusive and educational environment. All of the instructors are great and their unique styles help you learn the curriculum from multiple perspectives. Also, I came here initially for the jiu jitsu but the self defense class is seriously awesome and is worth attending. I happened to try it one day and now I make sure to attend class regularly in addition to the jiu jitsu classes. The self defense classes, like the jiu jitsu classes, are very well instructed and very practical. This gym is seriously well rounded in the classes it provides and the instructors are all great practitioners, teachers, and people. All of the aforementioned qualities lead me to train more than I ever have at other gyms because I look forward to coming to Gracie One.
I was impressed by the culture of the students and instructors.
Exceptional training in a fun, kind, inclusive and encouraging atmosphere. In addition to learning Jiu-Jitsu and self defense my child has learned to respect self and others, increased confidence, self control, responsibility and accountability. The staff is very respectful to each student and parent and honors each person's unique personality. The Jiu-Jitsu training is real - it's amazing to see what my child has learned. The facility is always clean. I couldnt ask for more. Professor Jeff - thank you for everything. You are the best!
Great academy! Everyone is super kind and the instructors are very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend to anyone who is interested in starting their journey in BJJ.
Best experience for both my girls, ages 3 and 5. Of all the things they do, this is their favorite. Love the discipline and confidence this creates. Professor Jeff is a household name now
Gracie One has been amazing for our 5 yr old son! Professor Jeff has just the right balance of fun and clear boundaries for behavior and hard work. We were looking for a team environment that encouraged positive social interaction, fun, good workout/physical movement, and appropriate behavior expectations and Gracie One does all of this and more. I have especially been impressed with the leadership skills taught, respect for self and others, and even the little push to speak loudly and clearly to a room full of people. These are life skills invaluable for improvement and growth for anyone. I can’t imagine a better martial arts experience!
My sons (3 and 5) have been taking classes for a few months now, and they love it! Not only are they learning jiu jitsu skills, but they are gaining self confidence and practicing strong life skills at the same time. Highly recommend!
The BEST place for little kids to learn Jiu-Jitsu, good behavior, and great sportsmanship!
We started both of our boys, 5 and 3, at Gracie One. The fundamentals, and how the program teaches them accountability has been a lot of fun to watch. They are not only learning skills in Jiu-Jitsu, but they are learning life skills at the same time. They love going.
We have been bringing our little guy to Gracie One for almost a year after a few people had already highly recommended it to us. We have not only noticed a tremendous improvement in our child’s working memory, sequencing ability and overall agility but his confidence level has skyrocketed! They learn they can do hard things, they truly earn their stars, stripes and patches. Prof Jeff doesn’t give them out just for participating—when our child receives a new stripe we can see the pride in his face knowing he fully worked hard for it and earned it. He instills discipline, respect, sportsmanship and kindness in all the kids. Truly happy to have signed up our kiddo!
Fifteen years ago, I earned a jiu-jitsu blue belt and twelve years ago, due to a number of stressful events in my life, I left the study of jiu-jitsu altogether. This October, at age 60, after a left hip replacement and total reconstruction of my right knee, I made the decision to return to the study of jiu-jitsu. I called GracieOne on a Saturday morning, spoke to Professor Clint Bounds and attended my first class that Monday. Not only was my blue belt honored, but I was immediately welcomed back into the jiu-jitsu community. I was immediately impressed with the culture of GracieOne: one of learning techniques properly, each student and instructor helping each other with one goal in mind: teaching the skill of jiu-jitsu. I also made a commitment to instruction in self-defense and have been truly impressed with the skills taught by Professor Randy Rozzell. I can’t think of a better place to lean jiu-jitsu and self-defense within a supportive community dedicated to helping me reach my personal potential. Thank you GracieOne for begin there and for helping me continue my longer overdue journey.
Legitimate good people.
Gracie One is a terrific option for our family. This is not the first Martial Arts academy we attend, however it is by far the best that we've found. We have an almost 5-year-old who is very spirited, however the coaches approach is always spot-on, treating them with respect and constructive instruction. The coaches, especially Professor Jeff promote and demonstrate, respect, self esteem, discipline, good sportsmanship while learning all the technical skills. Our son looks forward to the class every time and has learned a great deal about focus and discipline, which also reflects outside of the academy. We always share about the academy when possible, it's definitely a great and fun learning opportunity for anyone of any age!
Knowledgeable, kind and humble.
I don't normally leave reviews, but this place really deserves the highest recognition. I've been training here for a couple of months now and the experiences I've had with both the instructors and other people training have been nothing but positive. Talking to others in classes I've heard that many people have tried other places but chosen to stay here and that says something. Starting a new sport with no prior experience can be difficult, but here they have the most welcoming environment I could've imagined as a newbie. The instructors (professors) are extremely good at teaching techniques and communicating with you to make sure you fully understand and they work with you to help you succeed while everyone in the classes helps each other out. We all learn together with the philosophy that no one is left behind and feeling confused which I greatly value when learning. Safety is very important here as well, being a 5ft girl in classes with only a handful of other women, and mostly bigger men, I might've been scared to get hurt or swished, but here that's not the case cause they've really shown me just how important safety is to them. Everyone understands that being cautious and aware while training with our partners is very important which makes me feel very safe when we're learning to break an arm. Basically, if you come across Gracie One as a Jujitsu academy you'd like to try out, just do it, you will learn so much and feel so welcomed into a great community of people and happy that you've done so.
We love everything about Gracie One, especially the youth programs (Future champions 1 & 2). Professor Jeff is an amazing teacher. The classes are fun and engaging for the kids. In addition to the technical skills, he teaches them discipline, respect, self-control and leadership skills. We have 3 kids that’ve been attending for almost a year and they still love going to classes 2-3 times a week. I would highly recommend Gracie One to any and everyone! Go check it out!
Gracie One is amazing. The professors are wonderful and do a great job of providing discipline and structure in a fun, family-oriented atmosphere. Our son began taking classes at Gracie One about 10 months ago and his confidence growth has been tremendous. We love this gym. Highly recommended!
Our children have been attending classes at Gracie One for roughly 2 months now. We were welcomed with open arms from day one by their amazing instructors. We have 2 children, a son(5) and a daughter(12), who have grown to love attending class with instructors Jeff and Mason. They are both great at knowing when to push them while still knowing when the kids need some slack. In the short amount of time we have attended classes, I have had the pleasure of seeing a drastic change in both of my children. Both were very timid in the beginning but have opened up so much. This was one of our goals in takeing these classes, to break them out of there shells. We definitely wanted them to learn how to protect themselves, while also learning discipline and social skills. Gracie One has been the perfect fit for both. I look forward to continuing to watch my kids learn and grown with the team at Gracie One. I highly recommend giving them a shot, well worth the time.
GracieOne is the best place to learn Jiujutsu for all levels. I love to go there every day to learn self defense and Jiujutsu which are necessary skills for any girl these days! The professors are kind, knowledgeable and great at teaching. They make you feel comfortable and let you learn at your own pace. Lastly, the facility has lots of natural light and is kept clean at all times.
My son (7) has been attending classes at Gracie One for about 9 months and always has the best time. He's learned how to be a respectful member of a group and his confidence has definitely increased. The staff is great - very engaging and patient. I would absolutely recommend!
I started at GraciOne academy after alot of thinking if i can find my place in there, meaning its not easy to find a place to train in a competitive sport, more often than not you come across people that only care about themselves and their success in the sport, and they're not really concern themselves with the success of others which makes the environment very hard to progress and grow. I love this sport so much so I decided to give it a chance and I literally googled jiujitsu school near me and run across this place, after i googled it i thought about it for at least two weeks because of the fears and doubts that i had, but then after two weeks I decided to go there and when i tell you that every fear or doubt that i had quickly disappeared, after only one day you get the feeling of a family after more than two months there and many more to come I highly recommend the GracieOne academy for kids, adults it doesn't matter this place will quickly become you home
My son has been coming here for about 4 months. Had nothing but the best experiences and training here and the professors are some of the best. Definitely recommend.
Professor Clint and the entire staff are incredible! I have dropped in twice from out of town and they have been incredibly welcoming both times. In addition the teaching is top notch. Everything I have learned from dropping in with them I carry with me and use at my academy. If I lived in Dallas I would 100% become a student! Thank you so much to the professors!
I attended both a Monday evening and Tuesday morning gi classes with Clint and Randy. Both men were tremendous professors and their styles complemented each other. Clint was very accommodating toward me as a visitor from a Chicago gym in Dallas for a business trip.
When I first walked into Gracie One, I had no prior experience to Jiu Jitsu or any martial art; however, there was no hesitation by the staff to fully embrace me, and give me the instruction on where to begin and how to grow. Because of the staff’s friendly and approachable disposition, and the family-like atmosphere of the gym, I felt comfortable training and competing with everyone who attends classes. Truly, the only limit to what the professors and instructors can teach you is what you are willing to learn. As an 18 year old, fresh out of high school, embarrassment and comfort were worries when beginning my jiu jitsu journey. Luckily, I have found a place to, not only develop and hone my abilities, but also create strong relationships and friendships along the way.
GracieOne is the best school to bring your family to if you're searching for martial arts classes. It is like a big family setting and has superior coaches. The coaches keep classes serious and fun while my teens learn self-control, discipline, and respect. We've tried a different school before GracieOne, but nothing compares to this place. My girls have developed tremendous self-confidence and love the opportunity to thump boys each week.
We brought our 13 year old twin boys into this academy to start training for the first time. I cannot say enough about the entire team here. The culture is unbelievably welcoming and you instantly feel like family. Professors Antonio, Mari, Jeff and Clint are amazing! The twins have learned so much so fast in the short 7 weeks they have attended training so far. I highly recommend this academy to anyone who is interested whether brand new or a black belt! Thank you so much for every one of you for helping our boys find their strength and confidence!! Chris & Melody Bobo
Every instructor brings something a little cool and different to the table. I have been going since September of 2021 and couldn’t be happier. I see major progress in myself, and others. It feels very connected and family like when I go to the studio and couldn’t ask for more.
I hopped around a few gyms before I found Gracie One, but none of them had the same sense of community and the instructors were very hands off. That’s not the case here. Everyone is very welcoming and the instructors are genuinely focused on developing your skills. They are are also some of the most experienced ones you could hope to find. Gracie One is an excellent gym.
I love this place I came into Gracie One not knowing anything about striking or jiu jitsu they’ve helped me grow so much in just a year and a half. The instructors really care about their students and helping them accomplish their goals wether it be to get better at self defense, competing, or getting in shape. Everyone there is very welcoming and helpful, they make you feel like you belong, even if it’s your first class there.
Love this Jiu-Jitsu academy. Antonio, Marie and Jeff are amazing. My daughter love her practice. Highly recommended.
They used to be good but lots of things changed. When my kid started there the coaches were super nice and knew exactly how to deal with little kids. But the they hired a coach that is definitely not ready to deal with little kids. He yell at them and I’ve seen unacceptable behavior coming from him. He is extremely aggressive and teach the kids to be aggressive to. If you really want your kids to learn jiu jitsu avoid this place. I’m still working on my kid accept to go to another jiu jitsu school but it was so scary the experience with this coach that I’m not sure if one they my kid will go back to do jiu jitsu. AVOID THIS PLACE. They carry a name but they do not honor it.
