I love this place. First of all, I’m so impressed with the instructors! They are professional, friendly, and positive role models for young men. They are also great teachers with the children. My 4 year old loves the teachers, the kids, and the practice. I highly recommend.

My friend and I train at a GB in Canada and were visiting Arizona for GBF Camp! Towards the end of our trip, we were able to visit GB Arcadia, and it was such a lovely experience, everyone was so welcoming! Professor Josh is an amazing teacher. We mainly trained with Roni, who is so helpful and friendly!

Gracie Barra as a whole is an incredible team! Professor Murillo and his team at GB Phoenix are outstanding. Murillo takes an old school mentality and applies it in a new school way. He's been amazing with my 11 year old son. He knows how to instill discipline while still making it fun and educational. My son has grown by leaps and bounds since he started working with Murillo. Gracie Barra does a great job of promoting team & family. Highly recommend!

My Family and I travel from GB indonesia to GB Arizona to train for our PanAm competition and our prof highly recommended us to train here. We were accepted with open heart and treated like family here, which is the standard for all Gracie Barra all over the world. Thank you specially Prof Ryan, Prof Mei and all the competition team in GB to help us prepare for the competition also not to forget individual members that were helping up to train toward the competition I highly recommend this place to train Jiu Jitsu for young, old and family.

My son started training at Gracie Barra Phoenix when it opened back in 2017. He's almost four years old now and the lessons have been incredibly good for him. He's learned respect, responsibility, and a level of discipline that you would think unlikely in such a young child. I'm a firm believer in starting young people in martial arts training as early as is feasible, and Gracie Barra has a great outlook and awesome programs for both kids and adults. In fact I was so envious watching my son have so much fun I signed up for lessons myself. I highly recommend this establishment and have enjoyed working with them.
