Every coach we interact with has been so professional, good-natured, and respectful of the kids. I've seen both boys grow so much in their confidence and friendship with the other students as well. The coaches also encourage the older students to help with the younger kids and it means that the boys are getting help not just from the coaches, but from older kids they may not have interacted with before. It's been a really positive experience, and I heartily recommend this Studio to others. When I ask other folks who really know Jiu Jitsu, they all have told me that Carlson Gracie is a highly respected studio to train in.

I felt welcomed and everyone there were all really cool guys who were extremely knowledgeable and helped me with technique, positoning, they all literally answered every question I had! The only reason I give 4 starts is because there is a 40$ drop in fee which after buying a rash guard to support the gym means 95$ for a class and a souvenir. I'd love to go again but at that price it just is too much for me unfortunately but I would 100% pop in for a class again next time I'm down here! Thanks everyone in the class for helping me out and making me feel comfortable on my first ever drop in to a gym!

After three years at another BJJ studio that was not the right fit, we knew it was time to find a…read moreschool that would truly elevate our son's skills and confidence. We were looking for strong competition training, real structure, solid belt progression, and a culture that would help him grow both on and off the mat. From the moment we walked into Gracie Barra Boca, we felt the difference. The environment was organized, professional, focused, and positive. We were warmly welcomed, introduced to Enzo & the coaches, and my son immediately felt comfortable and at home. I love that they had my son sign his own contract. That is super empowering & teaches accountability. What has stood out most is how knowledgeable the coaches are and how clearly they teach technique. They break down skills in a way that makes sense, correct mistakes quickly, and truly pay attention to detail. You can tell they know what they are doing and care about developing strong athletes. My son had a tough first competition experience at his previous school that shook his confidence. The move he lost on stuck with him. By day three at Gracie Barra Boca, that exact move had already been corrected and sharpened. Three days. The level of instruction and focus is impressive. In just a few days, his confidence has already shifted. He walks in proud & excited. He feels capable. He loves being there. I've noticed his confidence spread out into other things in his life from being here. If you are looking for a BJJ school that builds confident competitors, teaches discipline, and provides structured, high level training, Gracie Barra Boca is it. We are so grateful we made the switch!

The entire team takes great care of them. They love the lessons and are learning amazing skills. We have also done Saturday morning family classes, which are an outstanding way to connect with your kids. They tried 6 different camps, and this was by far their favorite. I can't say enough good things about the programs and staff. My kids are 8 & 10 (girl and boy).
