From the reviews
My husband has been training at this amazing family owned Jiu-Jitsu academy for over 8 years now. They have been more than just a place for him to train, they are family. We are so blessed to have them in our lives.
Best dojo in Corpus Christi. My son has been training at Gracie Humaità CC for 3 years now and has learned so much. It eases my mind knowing that he can defend himself from bullies should he ever need to. Highly recommend!!
Very clean with extremely knowledgeable instructors/professors that provide excellent instruction with great patience for my young son. I appreciate their emphasis on discipline and hard work.
I’ve been doing Jiujitsu for over a year now. I love it. What blows my mind is our instructor is a coral belt. Master Matos is a direct student of Helio Gracie. Having a coral belt is so rare. His son Joáo Matos helps with the instructing. He was promoted black belt a few weeks back.
Your first BJJ class at Gracie Humaita Corpus Christi
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.
