Carlson Gracie Plant City

My son is going on 8+ years in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. He started at age 4,with the majority of that time with Plant City. It's family,mentorship and the top BJJ instruction he has worked with in all of Central FL.Its easily one of the best decisions I made for my son as a full time single father.🤙🥋🙏

This is a great community made up of coaches, students, and parents who care. I've worked with Coaches Cory and Sam at the NAGA Tournaments for some time now and both are kind, ethical, intelligent, humble guys who also happen to be highly respected BJJ Black Belts. The facility is very spacious, super clean (The bathrooms were so clean I thought they used toothbrushes on the toilets) and there's plenty of opportunities for open training, private lessons, and structured classes. What I like most about this particular academy is the encouraging environment they've created. There's a healthy non-bro-ish competitive spirit. Students are always cheering their classmates on, encouraging each other to push a bit harder, do better, and be the best they can be. It's a really inspiring culture, which is easy to get into and something many people could use in his/her lives. If you or anyone you know is looking to get (and stay) in shape, learn how to fight, or just looking for a fun, new hobby, definitely check Carlson Gracie Plant City out.

This gym changed my life and that's no exaggeration. I started training here almost 3 years ago and the culture, technique, and camaraderie I have experienced here had molded me into a person I never thought I could be! If you have ever even had a thought of trying out Brazilian jiu jitsu, give Sam a call and get started! You have no idea what you're missing out on

In a world that is ever changing and full of uncertainty it is always relieving to come into sam's gym and enjoy the clean quality training from a very experienced and high level black belt. there is no doubt that this gym offers some of the highest level of training because of the staff and instructors not to mention the outstanding level of respect that comes from the training partners as well this gym is a family and proves that statement every time I arrive. if you are looking for a place that can be trusted you have found it.

This gym has changed my daughter’s life. She has made so many great friendships along the way. Everyone is very welcoming. Sam and Cory are great guys and excellent coaches.
