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’ve been training at Gracie Barra for about 8 months, and it’s been great. The instructors are skilled and supportive, alongside the welcoming community of low and high belts alike. I’ve grown in both technique and enjoyment as I continue to go, I highly recommend GB for anyone interested in BJJ.

Is live sparring included in GB2?
Yes. Sparring is an essential part of GB2, but partners are always matched based on experience to ensure safety and steady progress.
