Organized Like A Team. Fighting Like A Family.
Brotherhood · Integrity · Development — the Gracie Barra way since 1986Some parents come to us for their child's confidence. Some adults come bored of the gym. Most end up on the mats together. Here's what changes.
From your child's first steps on the mat to advanced adult training — for athletes and especially non-athletes.
Our youngest warriors. Motor skills, coordination, and listening built through instruction and games — plus a first taste of self-defense and, most importantly, knowing when to use it.
Real technique starts here. Kids build coordination and confidence while learning the fundamentals of Jiu-Jitsu in a structured, encouraging class with plenty of friends their own age.
Strength, conditioning, and sport Jiu-Jitsu with a strong anti-bullying focus. Students spar under close supervision and can start testing themselves in tournaments and the weekly competition class.
Where every adult starts, whatever your fitness level. Fundamentals through instruction, observation, live training, and feedback. Advanced students at blue belt and up also train in our GB2 classes.
No pressure, no experience required. Here's exactly what happens.

"Gracie Barra Fleming Island is a great place to start or continue your Jiu-Jitsu journey. The Professor and Coaches are great with teaching and giving instructions. My wife, my kids and I love the friendly environment. Like the motto says, organized like a team, fighting like a family."
"My 9 year old niece loves it here! She has fun and especially loves that she gets to practice with other girls her age. It's clean, safe and family friendly. Easy parking too."
"I'm kinda partial to this place. It has been a 2nd home for me the last couple of years. I found exactly what I expected to find at a Gracie Barra, and that's a great community and world class professors and instructors. My family all take part in the classes, too. It's a great place for helping kids build confidence and grow."
Gracie Barra has passed Jiu-Jitsu from master to student since 1986. Your free first class isn't a trial — it's your first day inside a lineage built on brotherhood, integrity, and the discipline that changes lives on and off the mats.
No experience needed. A loaner uniform is waiting for you. Walk in nervous, leave part of the family — and if it's not for you, you've lost nothing but an hour on the mat.
Not at all. Most of our students walk in with zero experience — many aren't athletes either. Every class has beginners, and your first session is taught at your pace.
Comfortable athletic clothes and a water bottle are all you need for your first class. We'll provide a loaner uniform (gi) if you don't have one — just arrive about 15 minutes early so we can fit you.
Yes. Our kids' programs are run by experienced instructors with close supervision, a clean and safe environment, and a strong anti-bullying focus. Sparring is always controlled and age-appropriate.
We start as young as 3 in Tiny Champions, then Little Champions 1 for ages 7–9 and Little Champions 2 for ages 10–14. Teens and adults 14+ train in GB1, and blue belts and above also train in GB2. There's a class for every stage.
We'll go over membership options in person so we can recommend the right program for your goals and schedule. There's never any obligation to join after your free class — give us a call at (904) 855-6226 with any questions.
Fleming Island's home for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu — family, camaraderie, self-defense, and fitness. People from every walk of life have a place here.
