This place is absolutely amazing! My husband comes here and I see his smile every time we come inside, his motivation just to come here everyday shows that this place is where you would wanna be or a friend, your children etc.
After a month of searching for the best Jujitsu academy, we came across to Gracie Barra and let me start by saying What a honor to be part of this amazing legacy. Day one and I can’t be more grateful for the stuff and the professionalism that they have. The professor Fabio it’s just so incredible.
We are so lucky to have Professor André sharing his knowledge as our head instructor. The team is very friendly, lots of parking, clean environment and just an overall great experience. My 8 year old son loves the kids class and it has helped him with coordination and social skills.
New to BJJ? Start at Gracie Barra Boynton Beach - Jiu Jitsu & Martial Arts
Gracie Barra Boynton Beach - Jiu Jitsu & Martial Arts comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never rolled or set foot on a mat, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard rolling — reputable gyms build fundamentals (positions, escapes, and basic submissions) for weeks, live rolling eases in gradually, and tapping early keeps every roll safe. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out, and leave your ego at the door. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first BJJ class at Gracie Barra Boynton Beach - Jiu Jitsu & Martial Arts
Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
