We are loving the franklin location!!! Our son has been taught at the Belleview location but we recently moved and they have made it really easy to transfer and get my son acclimated to a new group of students and coaches. It’s a larger group but professor here has a great way of organizing the kids to still get an intentional group learning experience!Gerardo

We have been so impressed with Grace Barra Jiu-Jitsu in Franklin! Our two sons have been attending the gym for the past year, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. The professors and coaches are excellent. Over the past year, we have seen our boys grow not only in their Jiu-Jitsu skills, but also in discipline, respect, confidence, and awareness of their bodies. The classes are very well managed while still being interactive, fun, and engaging for the kids.Kimberly
