Mataio Telfort
In February I signed up for a free trial class expecting nothing, but in the process, I found another home and group of people I can call my family. I'm very thankful for Professor Cris, Professor Alex, Professor Rob, and all of my teammates, who support me and push my game to the next level every single day. Since I started training BJJ at Gracie Barra Aventura, not only do I feel more confident on the mats, but my life has tremendously changed off the mats as well and it's starting to feel like the best decision I have ever made. Truly grateful to discover Gracie Barra Aventura!

We tried this place among many others and this is the best environment for little kids. My 3y fell in love with the class and was engaged the whole time. The teacher is professional, firm, and funny and the kids love and respect him. The parent seating area is so convenient and comfortable. I wish I could give more stars.

I love Gracie Barra Aventura, it’s the best part of my day, and I genuinely look forward to every class. The professors there are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about what they teach. What makes it even better is the friendly and supportive atmosphere, from the staff to fellow gym members. Gracie Barra Aventura has become my second home and a place to stay active, learn, and connect with an amazing community.
I highly recommend Gracie Barra Aventura to anyone looking to start in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
