Gracie Barra Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Self Defense - Avondale 3145 North Dysart Road, Avondale, AZ 85392

"I've recently started training with Gracie Barra Avondale. I have to say that I am very happy with their program. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. I was nervous starting a new discipline at my age, but they quickly set me at ease. I highly recommend that anyone that is thinking about starting training, I personally would recommend Gracie Barra Avondale."

"For the past several weeks, my son has been learning jiu jitsu and self defense in the 7-9 yr old class. In the short time, his skills are quickly developing with the clear directions and expectations set by the instructors. With models, guidance, and feedback students of all skill levels are able to show growth. I'd recommend this class to any child looking to further develop a skill while learning self discipline and build their character!"

"So far Its been a family experience, like we were told. The coaches go above and beyond to assist my child and others with life skills that are needed. Looking forward to the rest of the time and years at Avondale Gracie Barra."

"The best bjj school in the area, I highly recommend this school, my son trained there for just over two years and it was amazing, very good training system, a lot of support and dedication from Professor Michael Bruner and his team of coaches, very professional. An excellent team and a great atmosphere. Very satisfied and grateful. They always made us feel part of the big GB family. I really appreciate it. Excellent place to train BJJ. Don't hesitate to come train with them."

"We've been bringing our children for about 1.5 years and can't thank the GB staff enough for their dedication to the sport, but moreso, to the development of our children. Professor and Coaches are so incredibly diligent, patient, and compassionate. They practice what they preach - to be leaders and outstanding members of the community. The facility is well cared for, as exemplified by the cleanliness. The staff ensures clean mats and hygenic practices on a daily basis. We can always count on the health of our children being safeguarded, and we fully trust this amazing family."
