Gregor Gracie has been something of a miracle for our 6 year old son. The professors are so skilled and professional, and warm and committed. They treat the kids with great respect, and expect the children to respect each other and the professors. It has really taught our son to regulate his energy and I have never seen our son so focused and engaged. We love Gregor Gracie and can't recommend it more highly!

We’re so happy to be part of this amazing Jiu Jitsu academy, where the whole family trains! The facility is fantastic – clean, and spacious, making it a great place to train, learn and grow. It is perfect for kids of all ages. The sport is not only fun but also teaches valuable life lessons that extend far beyond the mats. The professors are passionate and dedicated, ensuring that each child develops discipline, confidence, and respect, all while having a great time. A special shout-out to the Women’s Program, run by the incredible Professor Juliet. Her passion and expertise have created a supportive and empowering space for women in Jiu Jitsu. It is an absolute joy to train with her! The community here is truly something special – welcoming, friendly, and motivating. It’s so much fun to train alongside people who care about each other’s growth. We’re proud to be part of this academy and look forward to continuing our journey at Gregor Gracie. Highly recommend this academy to anyone looking to start their Jiu Jitsu journey!

I cannot recommend GGJJ gym enough. Not only is it such a clean and well maintained facility the staff is incredible. The professors are knowledgeable, patient and genuinely want you to do and feel your best. I was extremely nervous signing up but Professor Juliet made me feel so welcomed and was so helpful making sure I understood the basics while still teaching the rest of the classes. The women’s classes are amazing and it’s such a great group of women. The gym is an amazing choice for beginners just like I was getting into their journeys!

I am currently a purple belt student at Rolles Gracie in Lake Mary, FL and I am training for IBJJF PAN in 2 weeks so I travel to different schools in order to cross train with different students. My Professor recommended that I visit his brother Gregor Gracie Academy in Brooklyn or Teaneck, NJ for some great competition energy. I must say, out of all schools that I have ever trained in the 5 years, this is my TOP # 1 SCHOOL ON THE EAST COAST. Not only is the level of skills top level but it has a great mix of hobbyist and professional students. The academy is so welcoming, clean, convenient and very family oriented. Professor Gregor has an incredible martial arts background and his teaching skills are impeccable. If anyone is traveling and looking for some great lessons or top level competition look no further. I will be back in June for a month and a half. I can’t wait to train everyday. This is definitely my home academy when I’m NYC. Thank you Professor Gregor for having such an amazing academy and your undeniable hospitality.

I was visiting New York this weekend and was recommended by several people to visit Gregor Gracie Jiu Jitsu. I am glad I listened to the recommendations. The moment I stepped into the building I felt welcomed by Heaven at the front desk. The facility is absolutely beautiful from the views of the harbor to the clean mats, locker rooms and showers. The instruction taught by Gregor was excellent and his attention to small detail is amazing. The gym is filled with very high level people. Everyone was welcoming and rolled in a competitive, but safe and productive manner. You can tell Every one was there to make the other person better. If you are in New York, this school is a must visit! Thank you to Gregor and the rest of the team for the great hospitality. Look forward to coming back next time I am in New York.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Gregor Gracie Jiu Jitsu Academy is truly exceptional! My 11-year-old son and I have both been attending classes here, and the experience has been phenomenal. The instructors—Giulia, Juan, Enzo, and Victor—are not only highly skilled but also incredibly patient and supportive. They take the time to ensure each student understands the techniques and progresses at their own pace. Gregor, the owner, is an outstanding mentor and leader. His passion for Jiu Jitsu and dedication to his students are evident in every class. He creates a welcoming and encouraging environment that fosters growth and confidence. Heaven was fantastic during our free intro class, guiding us through the enrollment process and making us feel right at home. She always asks how my son is doing and ensures we are both enjoying our training experience. The academy actively participates in IBJJF tournaments. They recently hosted a Women's Open Mat, which was a great success and a testament to their commitment to the Jiu Jitsu community. The facilities are top-notch, always clean, and well-maintained. The atmosphere is friendly and family-oriented, making it a perfect place for both kids and adults to train. My son has gained not only physical strength and skills but also discipline and self-confidence, and I am benefiting greatly from the training as well. I highly recommend Gregor Gracie Jiu Jitsu Academy to anyone looking for a high-quality martial arts school. It's been a fantastic experience for our family, and we couldn't be happier with our decision to join this amazing community!

Going to Gregor Gracie Jiu Jitsu has become the highlight of my day. I've been training there for over a year now, and I can't imagine a better place to learn martial arts and self-defense. The atmosphere is warm, family-oriented, and respectful. The professors and instructors are incredibly friendly, kind, and always ready to help while encouraging us to improve. They’re not just talk; they’re active champions who make us proud at every tournament. The gym, lockers, and bathrooms are spacious, super clean, and even have a shower for convenience. There’s an amazing sense of community, friendship, and support here. It’s been a life-changing experience for me, and it's just getting started. My five years old boy has been having a lot of fun as well, while learning the fundamentals of self defense for kids, so important nowadays. I highly recommend it!

Anyone interested in learning traditional Brazilian Jiu Jitsu from high level instructors should consider Gregor Gracie Academy in Brooklyn, New York. Women's only classes, as well as coed classes for beginners, intermediates, and advanced students, are offered. Under this same roof, students have the opportunity to learn Muay Thai, Judo, and self-defense. Classes are available for adults and children. What to expect: Modern facility with a great view of the Brooklyn bridge. Clean mats. Attentive instructors. Welcoming and supportive community. Showers. Strict uniform policy (white or black Gregor Gracie attire only). Lots of Gi classes in the morning, afternoon, and evening. Some no-gi classes on Mondays and Wednesdays during the early afternoon (11:45-1pm) and Friday (6pm - 7:15pm). In my own experience: While I initially joined the club to study and train Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, I have focused my attention on the Judo classes with Professor Raphael on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and I enjoy learning from him and training with others. After and before class, you can ask questions of the instructor, who is a dual black belt in both Judo and BJJ. I've learned a lot from not only taking his classes and implementing his technique into my game, but also listening to the stories he has shared with us. The classes are fun and have helped propel my game forward in more ways than one. The other events that I have enjoyed attending or participating in are the women's only open mats which are held every few months. These free events bring women from all throughout the tristate area together to train under one roof and it's so fun to connect with practitioners from all ranks, styles of BJJ, and ages. Juliet is the instructor for the women's program at the academy and I am proud to call her a friend. The program has grown immensely, and I appreciate the effort and care that she puts into the program, students, and events.

Gregor Gracie is by far the best martial arts academy I’ve ever seen. The facilities are stunning, with a clean modern aesthetic. Multiple mats, locker rooms, and showers ensure that there’s space for everyone. The teaching is incredibly well structured. Beginners are eased in slowly while they work on basics, and as they progress and learn techniques they can join the more advanced class. Each week focuses on a specific skill to give students more time to improve their technique. The ensemble of highly skilled instructors are detail oriented and keen to create a welcoming environment for everyone. They make me wish I started training years ago.

This place is such an excellent gym, seriously. The instructors here make you feel at-ease, capable and confident. Starting as a beginner is such a good experience here because all the Sensei's are experts- as well as being patient so you don't feel rushed. The schedule is very reasonable for the price: you can take as many classes as you like (for your level). I really like the flexibility and on top of all that, the place is NICE. Clean floors, nice decor and bathrooms with a shower. I recommend this place !

I was a complete newcomer to self-defense before starting here. After just one session of learning fundamental techniques, I was brimming with motivation to delve deeper. It's been a month now, and I find myself wishing I had embarked on this journey years ago. The personalized attention from the instructors ensures that everyone, regardless of experience, is on the same page. They foster an environment that is not only inviting but also incredibly informative. The instructions are presented with such clarity that following along feels like second nature. I particularly appreciate the presence of multiple advanced-level practitioners who both train and teach. They manage to make the learning process enriching without a hint of intimidation, even for a beginner like me. The gym itself is a testament to cleanliness and spaciousness, providing an optimal setting for focused training. This has undeniably been a remarkable start, and I can barely contain my excitement for what lies ahead in this journey

My son Daniel attended Professor Juan's 3-4yo class every day for about a month before we had to go out of town, we plan to return to class when we turn to Brooklyn. The vibe at the studio is exceptional and you feel the love, respect & camaraderie when you walk through the doors. The students and instructors there are amazing positive role models and living examples of what perseverance/ never giving up looks like. It's clear why my partner Jeremy also has enjoyed coming here for years. The class Daniel is a part of is clearly designed to engender a love for the sport and the people in it. All of the professors are warm, engaging, fun, & seem to really enjoy working with kids. Often when we were there, five + professors assisted the class and every kiddo got the attention and praise it takes not only to learn, but to create the desire to return. It was a blast to watch. We can't wait to come back.

Starting with some background, I had no prior experience in Jiu Jitsu. Before joining Gregor Gracie BJJ (GGBJJ), I tried day trials at a few other gyms. All of them had great people who were passionate about the art, but after my trial at GGBJJ, I decided to enroll the next day. GGBJJ recognizes the need for tailored approaches and offers classes for various skill levels. They cater to beginners stepping onto the mat for the first time and experienced veterans training for competitions and everyone in between. What stood out to me was the fundamentals class for beginners like me. Right from day one, I felt engaged in the training and gained valuable knowledge. During the classes, I was always working with students of similar skill levels, making training comfortable. Even the more experienced students helped with training. Moreover, the classes are scheduled throughout the day, accommodating different schedules. The instructors at GGBJJ are experienced, knowledgeable, approachable, and friendly. Despite potential for bigger class size during peak hours, individualized feedback is still provided and I never felt the training to be lacking in any way. I've always felt the professors to easily be the best part about the training here. The gym's location overlooking the East River provides a scenic backdrop. Inside, it's clean and well-maintained, creating a pleasant environment for training. There are two showers as well as a locker room for male and females. After spending a month here, I'm looking forward to continuing my journey.

My daughter has been at Gregor Gracie for 30 days and we've have been extremely happy with her progress. They divide the class so that no matter what skill level the kids are being challenged and learning. They consistently have several black belts on the mat so that each kid is getting feedback/form corrections. They have beginner & advanced classes 6 days a week so it can fit around any schedule. The professors are extremely friendly and welcoming. The facility is the best we've seen and has plenty of space and amenities for the parents watching practice. To top it off, the location is right by Brooklyn Bridge Park!

I was able to attend 4 classes while visiting and it was a very enjoyable experience. It’s difficult to overstate the elite talent level among the grapplers I had the pleasure of training with. They also were friendly and I got the impression that the school valued and fostered a positive mindset among its instructors and students. This was my first time training with Gregor’s school but it will be my first choice whenever I am visiting the area.

Prior to signing up for the trial class, I had zero experience in any form of martial arts. I was quite nervous and wasn’t sure what to expect. However, that trial class blew my mind. Everyone was (is) extremely friendly and I felt right at home. The instructors are all fun and they never make you feel uncomfortable. It was the first time that I exercised without idling around and thinking about work, home, or other life events. I was fully present in the session and the time just flew by. After the trial class, I immediately cancelled my gym membership and signed up for the monthly membership at GGJJ. If you are looking for a new form of exercise (the amount of calories you burn during a 45min session is pretty incredible), challenge, hobby, or fun activity, definitely consider starting it at GGJJ.

I’ve trained at this gym since October 2019. This gym has everything you can ask for. If you’ve never done any sort of martial arts there’s a beginners class with helpful instructors to build you up. If you’ve been training for awhile they are active competitors along with the coaches. This gym has a sense of community I was more introverted before I started training but I’ve come out of my shell along with confidence. The classes are organized and they are multiple classes throughout the day to accommodate your schedule.

4.11.22 - I started training in April 2022 and I haven't looked back. BJJ is an intimidating discipline, but the community at GG is very supportive starting at the very top with Gregor and all of the professors, Alessandro, Arthan, Rafael, Victor, and Juan. The kids BJJ and Muy Thai is just as supportive. If you're looking for a school to learn discipline in the best possible way then this is the spot. OSS!

The atmosphere and inclusive community at this martial arts training center is unmatched. The mixture of the safe and friendly training style founded upon levity, combined with the competitive nature of the people who attend the classes makes for an incredibly addicting experience to immerse yourself in after work... or before work... or during lunch. From the flexible schedule, to the professors obvious love for their craft, this place truly delivers the biggest bang for your buck. If you are looking for growth in your life, to get in shape, to blow off steam, to defend yourself or to just learn something new, ju jitsu at Gregor Gracies is the place to access all of that and more.

Gregor Gracie Jiu Jitsu is a great school for adults and children who want to learn from great professors! They have great classes for people who are looking to have their first look at Jiu Jitsu. As well they have very high level professors and students. One of the gym’s best traits is it’s beauty and it’s location.

Studio is a clean and comfortable setting for parents and students. The training areas are nicely spaced out and organized for students to train in a safe space where they are supervised and supported by multiple instructors.

Training at Gregor Gracie’s school has been amazing and I recommend it to everyone. World class instruction, amazing culture, clean, professional, and one of the best place in the world to learn and train Gracie jiu jitsu directly from the source! It’s an honor to train under Gregor Gracie and the rest of the Gracie team and family.

Love this place so much, it’s like my second home. I love spending time at the academy. I feel my Jiu jitsu has improved so much since I started taking classes with Professor Gregor and Professor Alessandro. The academy has very highly qualified Professors for kids also , the environment is very familiar and organized. I’m so happy to be part of Gregor Gracie Team !

I absolutely love this gym. The instructors are amazing and there's a real sense of community for new comers and veterans. The facilities are very clean and the mats are thoroughly cleaned every day (staph infection is my biggest fear) I came in as a brand new white belt (at the age of 35) and never have taken any type of martial arts in my adult life. The beginner class pace is very friendly for someone out of shape, but can be scaled to make any athlete exhausted by the time it's over. One year later, I'm in much better shape, gained some muscle tone, and managed to drop over 40 pounds. For anyone experienced, this gym also has high level competitors who compete all around the country; with instructors who actively compete with many medals to back up their reputations. Give it a try! You won't regret it. I know I haven't.

Every time I walk into the gym I can’t believe how lucky I am to train at Gregor Gracie Jiu Jitsu. I pop in at other schools when traveling for work and it always reaffirms that Gregor’s gym is as special as I think it is. From day 1, with zero experience in jiu jitsu (not to mention, very much out of shape) Alessandro, Arthan, Raffa and Gregor invested as much in me as they do with any of the world champions that also train there. Their teaching style and the atmosphere they create have made jiu jitsu one of the most important and rewarding parts of my life. If you are one of people that walks by our gym everyday and wonders if you should try it out, stop putting it off and come on in!

I have been training at Gregor Gracie for a little over a year now and it has become a second home to me. All of the instructors are very humble and kind and are very welcoming to all of the students. The instructors really care about the students and having beginners learn the fundamentals is key at the academy, to avoid anyone getting hurt. I’ve seen many academies, and this is by far the most beautiful I’ve seen, and very clean!! The academy has three bathrooms and two of the three have showers, which is amazing as well as convenient!! The locker rooms are very spacious and everyone is very respectful of others' belongings. The kid's program is also incredible, all of the instructors are extremely patient and understanding. I would highly recommend this academy, the facility is beautiful and the jiu-jitsu is world-class!!!

I have been training here for almost two years- this was a life changing transformation. Professor Gregor and the rest of the professors, are not only performing and teaching at the highest level, but the culture of graceful warriors being fostered has felt like a second home. I cannot say enough- go in and train, and take the step to seize a better future. This has given me more life than I could have ever imagined. Thank you professor 🙏🏽

Incredible gym. Very very high level world class jiu jitsu. The professors are so great and give white belts so much personal attention in their development. The white belts here are like blue belts in other gyms I’ve trained at. Facilities are great too and very clean. The only downside is that you can only wear academy gis. If they took away this rule it would be perfect.
