From the reviews
Amazing School for all ages. My son is taking classes and I started with him as well to keep him inspired. I am competing at 44 years old. I cannot believe it. Excellent class routine where you will learn a new grappling technique every day, roll, stretch, do a specific exercise and gain much more than you expected.
I started this gym at the top of 2021 as a new years resolution. I really enjoyed MMA and wanted to experience it. From the beginning professor Daniel and everyone in the gym was EXTREMELY welcoming and very eager to assist and teach.
Good training, good vibes. You will learn BJJ here and make great friends. Highly recommend. Proffesor Daniel Rego is a legend of the art and an amazing instructor.

Your first BJJ class at Gracie Barra Homestead Brazilian Jiu Jitsu & Self Defense
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.
