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.

Reviews

We love Gracie St. Peters and the support our son receives from the coaches and kids. With ADHD and ASD, he’s found something he truly enjoys that also helps his learning and development at school and home. We love BJJ!

I had no prior combat sport experience, but GBSP was very welcoming and my first trial class was overwhelmingly positive. The culture is great, coaches are skilled mentors, and I improve every week with amazing training partners.

After 10+ years in other martial arts, I finally gave Jiu-Jitsu a go at GB St Peters. It’s now my second home—amazing coaches, friendly training partners, and a welcoming community for the whole family, including my son and wife.

Incredible gym and community! Gracie Barra St Peter’s is an amazing place to train. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and supported by both the coaches and the students. The instruction is top-notch—clear, structured, and rooted in real Jiu-Jitsu fundamentals. Whether you’re a beginner or more advanced, the classes are well-paced and challenging in the best way. The vibe is respectful, motivating, and truly aligned with the values of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I highly recommend it

Gracie Barra St Peters can only be described as ONE BIG FAMILY! Coming from another gym, I was welcomed into the St Peters family with so much love and support. The Professors and Coaches have a true passion for the art of jiu jitsu and the knowledge across the students are endless. GB St Peters offers so many options in terms of morning/night classes from Gi and No Gi classes for mixed fundamentals and advanced and even Womens only classes 7 days a week! St Peters has a strong women's team which I simply love! Always great rolls, laughter and the occasional over eating at the end of every class with the team ♡♡♡
