Life-Changing Transformations

"At 42, I was overweight and stressed from work. After 6 months at Gracie Barra, I've lost 35 pounds, feel 10 years younger, and have a confidence I've never had before. My kids joined too, and now BJJ is our family activity. Best decision we ever made."

Common Questions Answered

5 quick answers to help you decide

  • What's included in the $19 trial?

    Your trial includes 2 full weeks of unlimited classes, a free Gracie Barra uniform (gi) worth $120, and a private introductory lesson. That's a $199 value for just $19! You'll have full access to all classes for your age group.

  • I've never done martial arts. Is this for beginners?

    Absolutely! 90% of our students start with zero experience. Our GB¹ Fundamentals program is specifically designed for complete beginners. You'll learn at your own pace with others at your level. No one gets thrown to the wolves!

  • Am I too old/out of shape to start?

    Never! We have students from 3 to 73 years old. BJJ is perfect because you go at your own pace and use technique over strength. Many of our adult students started in their 40s, 50s, and even 60s. The workout adapts to your fitness level.

  • Is BJJ safe for kids?

    Yes! BJJ is one of the safest martial arts because there's no striking (punching/kicking). Our certified instructors emphasize control, respect, and safety. Kids learn to "tap out" when uncomfortable. Injury rates are lower than soccer, basketball, or football!

  • How often should I train to see results?

    We recommend 2-3 classes per week for optimal progress. Most people see physical improvements within 30 days and technical progress within 2 weeks. Your membership includes unlimited classes, so you can train as often as you'd like!
