Instructors
At Gracie Barra Steveston, our instructors are the heart of our school. Each member of our teaching team brings years of experience, deep technical knowledge, and a genuine passion for sharing Jiu-Jitsu with others.
More than just coaches, they are mentors and role models — dedicated to helping students build confidence, discipline, and resilience both on and off the mats.
Our instructors lead by example, creating a friendly and inclusive environment where everyone feels welcome, supported, and inspired to do their best. They take pride in seeing our students grow, from their first day in class to achieving milestones they once thought were out of reach.
Whether you’re training for fitness, competition, or personal development, our team is here to guide you every step of the way — as part of the Gracie Barra Central Steveston.
Training Philosophy
At Gracie Barra Steveston, we believe that Jiu-Jitsu is for everyone — regardless of age, background, or experience.
Our training philosophy is built on three core values: discipline, respect, and community. Every class is designed to help students develop not only their technique but also their confidence, focus, and mindset.
We follow a structured and proven curriculum that ensures consistent progress while maintaining a safe and supportive environment. Our instructors are dedicated to guiding each student at their own pace, helping them build strength, resilience, and a sense of belonging both on and off the mats.
