I really appreciate how GB offers a structured and standardized approach to Jiu-Jitsu, and how seriously the staff take it. What has impacted me the most is the focus on body awareness and the anti-bullying culture they cultivate with the kids. My son has been benefiting so much from it, alhamdulillah.Posted on Google Jag ChohanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Both my daughter and son go to Gracie Barra Guildford and they absolutely love it. They’re always excited when it’s jiu-jitsu day. The coaches and staff are great with the kids and really put effort into teaching more than just jiu-jitsu. They focus a lot on respect, discipline, confidence, and good values, which we really appreciate as parents. It’s a very positive and welcoming environment, and we’ve had nothing but a great experience here. Highly recommend for anyone looking to get their kids into jiu-jitsu.Posted on Google Sophia HussainTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gracie Barra is one of the best decisions I have ever made for my kids. The coaches are all amazing , they genuinely care about each student and uplift confidence in each child. They are patient and ensure everyone is not only learning but enjoying each class. My daughter has always been so shy and quiet, the amount of confidence I have seen in her since she has started, is worth every penny! I have also done my research and they have the most affordable plans, they have after school programs and always have fun events for the kids and adults! Great place, they really make you feel like your apart of a great team. My kids love love it!

Age-Appropriate Learning: Classes are divided by age groups to ensure the training matches your child’s developmental stage.
Anti-Bullying & Self-Defence: Empowering children with non-violent self-defence skills, verbal assertiveness, and situational awareness.
Character Development: Every class reinforces core martial arts values like respect, discipline, focus, and teamwork.
We believe that martial arts should be engaging. Our GBK classes combine structured Jiu-Jitsu training with interactive drills that keep children focused and excited. Safety is our absolute priority; every technique is taught in a controlled manner under the watchful eyes of certified instructors.
Our curriculum covers all aspects of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for kids. They will learn effective takedowns, essential ground techniques, and practical self-defence skills. By understanding leverage over strength, children learn how to neutralize threats and protect themselves confidently.
Jiu-Jitsu is about much more than what happens on the mats. The discipline, resilience, and respect your child develops at Gracie Barra Guildford will carry over into their schoolwork, home life, and future. We help shape confident leaders who know how to overcome challenges.
