Reviews

I have been visiting in the area for work and decided to do a casual class at Gracie Barra HV BJJ. All of the staff were very friendly, welcoming and accommodating. The professor and all of the senior belts were very knowledgeable and friendly and mindful of my safety and level of experience, as were all of the students. Great atmosphere. If I was a local I would join this club.

From shy and lacking confidence to outgoing and resilient, our daughter can't wait for upcoming sessions and is always is eager to attend. Professor Gene and Karen are so welcoming, encouraging and supportive to every member who attends and we can't recommend them enough!

Emily Lawson
Very professional, helpful and great communication. Coach Karen is really great with the little kids, she is encouraging, calm, firm and fair and gains respect from her students. My son has now been attending for 3 years and he loves it, he's grown in confidence and has learnt to defend himself with the help of this most practical martial art you'll ever need to know in general life.
