Daniel Gracie in Philly has been a wonderful training spot for me. I have gotten to do a few drops in here and the team is wonderful. Professor Fujita is so knowledgeable and kind. I’ve learned so much technique each time I come. The members here are kind and welcoming. Recently got to go when Daniel Gracie was there and it was a great class with a lot of encouragement to keep training.

I’m a current white belt student here & I’m glad I started my training here. Learning from Sensei Fujita and everyone else here is a blessing in disguise. Training is hard but absolutely rewarding. The dojo is very welcoming and family oriented.

I’ve been to a lot of different schools in my life and I have to say this is the best one. The Instructors are outstanding! They are extremely knowledgeable and patient. They have a vested interest in helping you improve. What I really like about the school is the people. Everyone is trying to help everyone get better. If you’re new to BJJ or have experience, this is the perfect school. Everyone is very welcoming and has a vested interest in helping you get better. There’s definitely a family environment in the school.

I visited a few gyms for their free trials before this one, and I chose this gym because of the welcoming community and the clean, well-kept facility. From day one, it felt inviting, and joining has truly been one of the best decisions I’ve made in my 49 years. Not only am I getting into shape, but I’m also having fun while doing it.

A great BJJ school with an awesome culture and atmosphere. There's people to give you a challenge whether recreational or competitive. Excellent instructor that I would be proud to earn my black belt under.

Frequently Asked Questions

IS THERE A FREE TRIAL CLASS?

Absolutely. We invite all prospective students to try their first class free at Daniel Gracie BJJ. It's the best way to experience our training environment, meet our coaches, and see if BJJ is right for you. No experience or equipment needed — comfortable athletic clothing is fine.

DO I NEED ANY EXPERIENCE TO START?

No experience necessary! Daniel Gracie BJJ welcomes complete beginners. Our instructors break down every technique step by step, and our community is known for being welcoming and patient with new students. Everyone starts as a white belt, and that's exactly where you should start too.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR TO MY FIRST CLASS?

For your first visit, comfortable athletic clothing works perfectly — a t-shirt and shorts or athletic pants. Once you commit to training regularly, you'll want to invest in a gi (kimono). Our coaches can recommend quality options at a range of price points.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I TRAIN?

Most students at Daniel Gracie BJJ train 2 to 3 times per week and see consistent progress. Showing up regularly matters far more than training intensely once in a while. We offer multiple class times throughout the week so you can find a schedule that fits your life.

DO YOU OFFER CLASSES FOR KIDS?

We primarily serve adult students. Please contact us directly to ask about availability for younger students — we're happy to point you in the right direction.
