As a parent, I can’t say enough about the transformative impact this program has had on my child. The grit and discipline instilled through the training are shaping great young people, equipping them with life skills that extend far beyond these walls. The coaches genuinely care, fostering a supportive environment where every kid is encouraged to grow, push their limits, and build character. Their dedication is evident in the time and effort they invest in each athlete, balancing tough love with encouragement. It’s a phenomenal program that’s not just building better athletes , but better people. Highly recommend!
Great gym. All the professors and higher belts are great at breaking down lessons to all levels old man to elementary age. Feels like a family from the beginning. Also if your interested in competing at any level they will get you into the winners stand.
My family and I, have been training at Gracie Barra for over three years, and I can confidently say it’s one of the best places. The welcoming atmosphere and sense of community have been outstanding from day one. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable, with years of experience, and patient. They’re always willing to explain techniques in detail, making sure everyone feels comfortable and confident, no matter their skill level. Whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced practitioner, there’s a place for you here. If you’re looking for a top-tier gym with exceptional instructors and a great community, this place is the one! Highly recommended!
I’ve had an amazing experience at Gracie Barra Crestview. I am definitely grateful for the friends and family I’ve made here through Jiu Jitsu and MMA. This program has definitely changed my life for the better.
The instructors are awesome, it’s a great school to train in for the whole family. We love these guys!
Frequently Asked Questions
IS THERE A FREE TRIAL CLASS?
Absolutely. We invite all prospective students to try their first class free at GB Crestview. 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 Crestview 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 Crestview 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.
