Our school is the result of the efforts of Professor Marcio Feitosa, a 6th Degree Black Belt under Master Carlos Gracie Jr.
We offer world-class level Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instruction for individuals, families, and Law Enforcement officials of Chicago and our School is a reference for character development, self-defense, martial art, fitness and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training for the communities of West Loop, The Loop and River North.
The Gracie Barra Chicago classes are aligned with the Gracie Barra Program Structure developed by Master Carlos Gracie Jr. to meet specific learning needs from people with different ages, gender and levels.
Our clean, friendly, and progress oriented environment allows the students to have a challenging, inspirational, and warm learning and training experience that always make them feel like coming back.
Gracie Barra is for anyone who values discipline, wellness, martial arts, respect, and is looking for a well-balanced lifestyle.
It doesn’t matter if you are a person with no training background that wants to lose weight or learn self-defense, a busy businessperson looking for a stress relieving activity, a parent searching for something to complement the education of your kids, or an experienced martial artist aiming for the further development of your fighting skills, come to the school.
We are sure you will find our school an exciting and challenging place, that will allow you to achieve your goals.
