GRACIE BARRA DENVER - BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU & SELF-DEFENSE reviews

Rated 5.0/5 across 20 Google reviews.

I've been training at Gracie Barra Centennial for less than a year and was so happy that this studio in Denver is now open because it's very convenient for me to get to no matter where I am in the central Denver area. There are several reasons I like training at Gracie Barra. They are family oriented. Plenty of time is spent on fundamentals with a focus on safety and technique over power and brute force. All of the instructors are very friendly, caring, and always provide an enjoyable learning experience that is challenging, but fun and safe for all levels of people regardless of skill or conditioning. I highly recommend that you come in and try a class if you are looking for a studio to practice BJJ at. Best, Steven
Gracie Barra Denver is honestly one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. The community is so welcoming to everyone and as an LGBTQ person I never once felt out of place here. It’s the kind of place where inclusivity is just how they are. No big deal made of it, which makes it a very big deal. The coaching is legitimately world class. Some of the best instructors you’ll find anywhere. As someone with a busy professional life, I really appreciate that you can train at your own pace without any pressure. Nobody’s making you feel like you’re falling behind. Two years in and this place has become a real anchor for me. The people I train with are a huge part of that. 10/10, not going anywhere.
Gracie Barra Denver is an amazing place to train! The atmosphere is incredibly friendly and welcoming, whether you're brand new or have experience. Professor Daniel and Coach Mariah are outstanding leaders—knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping you grow. The technique instruction is excellent, and they take the time to make sure you really understand what you're learning. Highly recommend for anyone looking to train in BJJ with a great community!
I highly recommend Gracie Barra Denver to anyone wanting to learn and train jiu jitsu. The professors and coaches are excellent and highly knowledgeable. They always have a positive attitude and help each member achieve their personal goals, whether that's competing or just getting into shape. There is zero tolerance for unsafe, egocentric training. This makes it an awesome training experience for both beginners and long time practitioners.
I’ve been dropping in at Gracie Barra Denver while traveling for work, and it’s been an awesome experience. Professor Valerio and his team have been super welcoming and made me feel like part of the family right away. Professor Valerio is really knowledgeable, and the way he teaches makes things easy to pick up, no matter your level. Everyone at the gym is very friendly, and they’ve all made me feel at home. Definitely recommend this place if you’re looking to get in shape or start training martial arts. It’s never too late to start!
