Advanced Jiu-Jitsu

Take your training to the next level with advanced techniques, live sparring, and the introduction of No-Gi.

Ready for the Next Level? GB2 Starts Here.

The GB2 Program is designed for students who have built a strong foundation through GB1 and are ready to deepen their skills and push their training further.

With a focus on more advanced techniques, strategic drilling, positional awareness, and live sparring, GB2 offers a more intense and challenging experience - while still maintaining the structure and support Gracie Barra is known for.

This is also where students begin No-Gi training, expanding their understanding of Jiu-Jitsu by adapting techniques without the traditional uniform. No-Gi sessions help improve speed, agility, and grip control, preparing students for a broader range of competition and real-life scenarios.

Eligibility: Students must have at least 3 stripes on a white belt, typically earned after a minimum of 4 months of consistent training.

I always wanted to try BJJ, and with Gracie Barra opening nearby, I finally did! The team is so welcoming—my first 3 sessions were great. I also signed up my 3-year-old son, and he loves the kids classes. Excited for this journey!
