Our children have been training at Gracie Jiu-Jitsu for almost a full year now, and the experience has been nothing short of transformative. Coach Anthony is an exceptional instructor who strikes the perfect balance between technical expertise and mentorship. He doesn't just teach the kids "moves"; he ensures they understand the mechanics and the "why" behind every technique. His ability to break down complex Jiu-Jitsu concepts into something children can grasp and apply is impressive. Beyond the mats, the most significant change we’ve seen is in our children's discipline and personal growth. Coach Anthony instills a sense of respect, focus, and resilience that carries over into their daily lives. Seeing them grow more confident and disciplined over the last year has been a point of pride for our family. If you are looking for a place where your children can learn high-level Jiu-Jitsu while developing strong character in a supportive environment, I cannot recommend Coach Anthony and this academy enough.

I'm a disabled combat veteran who likes to stay away and stay inside where its safe. The Veterans hospital says thats not good for my spirit though. So i try. I tried this place and i find it more than just safe... I find that they give me confidence, strength, courage and somehow someway I don't how to explain it but they are healing to my mental health and i come from a lot of trauma even before the military. They allow me to be myself, while i seek myself and sometimes I don't even want to go but every time I do i feel like I grow. There is so many reasons to give this a try.... I want to know what brings you in? What's your story? Let us never stop learning and growing! Thank you to my classmates and instructors for guidance and the unity. I hope to here your story soon!

Frequently Asked Questions

IS THERE A FREE TRIAL CLASS?

Absolutely. We invite all prospective students to try their first class free at Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Barstow. 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! Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Barstow 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 Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Barstow 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.
