Gracie Barra Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu martial arts. We are the fastest growing martial art in the world. There are over 350 schools world wide. Our goal is not just to teach the art, but to teach people of all ages how to better them selves through discipline, respect, and character. Lessons learned on the mat can filter through and change for the better the way you think of yourself off the mat. The International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation, our governing body, organizes regular gradings, as well as regional and national events. Undertaking the study of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu makes you a part of something much larger than just a martial arts club. Its make you part of a "family". The best way to find out more is to come along to our school and join in. We understand that starting a martial art can be quite daunting, but as a novice, we will not expect you to know it all. Much care will be taken to ensure that you know what to do and that you are learning at a comfortable pace even the instructor was a novice once. All you need to start is a willingness to learn. I hope we get the opportunity to meet one day. See you then. Gracie Barra - "organized like a team, fighting like a family"
