New location for an amazing team. This location is ran by Professor Mona Bailey. If you are looking to start or need a new home for jiujitsu this is an amazing team. I have known Mona since she was a young girl training jiujitsu. She is a phenomenal competitor and practitioner and coach. The Bailey family is a Jiujitsu family and take care of people like family.

Carlson Gracie North has been absolutely life-changing for my two daughters! From day one, the energy, the discipline, and the dedication from the entire team have blown me away. Team Bailey especially—what an incredible group of mentors. They don’t just teach jiu-jitsu… they build confidence, character, and courage. My kids look up to them in every way, and the progress they’ve made is unbelievable. The coaches go above and beyond every single class. Their patience, skill, and passion for teaching truly set this academy apart. The environment is welcoming, motivating, and feels like one big family. If you’ve ever thought about joining—don’t second-guess yourself. Do it. This place is the real deal. I recommend Carlson Gracie North to everyone. Whether you’re looking for top-tier training, amazing coaches, or a safe and inspiring place for your kids to grow—this is it. Join today… you’ll wish you started sooner!

Grand Opening was very impressive. The number of black-belted competitors was next-level, and plenty of skilled kids/teenagers as well. Global Martial Arts has a new neighbor with a bjj focus so not direct competition except as to BJJ but I think they will both be better off for each other relatively close by (by Texas standards, practically neighbors). Glad to see quality places like these are popping up on the regular because this seems to indicate that the sport is not reaching a plateau in our extended area (Harris County). Welcome Team Bailey!

Both my son and daughter train here, and the positive impact on their confidence, discipline, and overall well-being has been incredible. The coaches are not only skilled and knowledgeable, but also patient, encouraging, and genuinely invested in each student’s growth... on and off the mat. The environment is welcoming and family-oriented. It’s more than just jiu-jitsu; it’s a community. Seeing my children push themselves, gain new skills, and celebrate their progress has been such a rewarding experience. I can’t recommend Carlson Gracie North Houston enough... it’s been such a blessing for our family.

The Best Team in town Carlson Gracie North Houston Under Professor Mona Bailey Her being the the 1st Black Belt female out of the Carlson Gracie team in Texas That’s Set the Tone. We started with our little one being 3 years 7 months old As soon as he places his first step In the mats with the quality of coaches, you can already tell he was going to fell In love with jui jitsu. The patience, the energy the confidence the knowledge of professor Mona and her Staff shows in the mat it’s outstanding. Now our little one shows so much discipline, confidence and determination no only on the Mat but also at Home. I recommend The Bailey Team to anyone who would love their kids to become confidence and better at themselves.
