Now that my girls’ ONE YEAR Jiu Jitsu anniversary has come and gone just this month- I am leaving an honest review and I am confident in saying that they will celebrate MANY MORE anniversaries here at GB Burleson! The coaches and the team at GB Burleson are hands down THE BEST! It’s a “family” vibe. My girls attend the fundamentals, advanced, and drills classes offered during the week. They’ve had a few private lessons as well as have competed in 5 competitions just this past year- I’ve seen so many big accomplishments and growth!! Mentally, physically, and emotionally. I have attended the free Women’s Only Self Defense class- so much good information. In today’s world, this is a highly recommended class! Gracie Barra Jiu Jitsu Burleson teaches self defense, respect, and confidence. In addition, you may gain some new friends along the way. We love GB Burleson!

Gracie Barra has been one of the best things I have ever done for my daughter. She is only 9 but has been through a lot in her life that has caused to lose her confidence and have childhood anxiety. We tried many other sports and she just didn’t like them. She absolutely loves Gracie so much she asks to go everyday during the week and a lot of that goes to the coaches. There isn’t a coach there that hasn’t made an impact on her. We have been here a year and Tristen’s confidence now has increased so much even her school work has improved! Gracie Barra isn’t just a jiujitsu gym, it is family to us and we will be here forever 💙

We have been with Gracie Barra Burleson for almost a year now. My son’s confidence has grown so much! He has developmental language disorder and they have been very accommodating with extra attention to him (and others) when needed to perfect a position. Professor Buddy, Coach Dustin and Cole have a great combination of patience and authority, but know when to give praise to instill confidence on the mat. We love GBB! 💪

Incredible atmosphere at the Burleson Gracie Barra. From Professor Buddy to all the other great coaches. Very family oriented and focused on developing children into strong young adults. Highly recommend for anyone with children 3 and up!

My 3-year-old son attends Jiu-jitsu classes here and absolutely loves it! The coaches and their assistants are wonderful with the kids. It's truly remarkable to witness such young children learning complex movements and drills. I love to watch my son learn and develop in such a positive environment. Thank you to all the coaches and assistants— you're awesome!

Frequently Asked Questions

IS THERE A FREE TRIAL CLASS?

Absolutely. We invite all prospective students to try their first class free at GB Burleson. 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! GB Burleson 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 GB Burleson 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.
