I've been training at Gracie Barra SW Portland for five months, and have found both excellent instruction and camaraderie. Professor Bruno Rocha, the head instructor, is a third degree black belt who has trained BJJ for 20 years. He regularly competes in gi and no gi competitions across the world, and it's an honor to learn from someone with that caliber of experience. My daughter also trains here, and the kids classes are a nice mix of general physical activity, BJJ techniques, and instilling good values like grit and respect. Jay Stahl, the owner and a coach (he holds a purple belt), helps foster a safe and welcoming environment for adults, kids, and parents alike.
I've been wanting to learn and train Jiu Jitsu for few years now, but I was never able to find the right place to do so. After looking around the PDX Metro area and checking several schools I could not find one that was a good fit for me and my daughter and I almost give up to the idea of learning the art. Up until I found Gracie Barra SW PDX, they are very friendly and professional as well as they provide a very safety environment specially during this pandemic months. Jay was very attentive and informative when I first contact the place and offered me to come and check them out so my daughter and I took their courtesy class with coach Jay and coach Madison. We were very happy and satisfied with them and their professionalism. So we signed up and are very happy to train and learn Jiu Jitsu with Gracie Barra SW Portland. I highly recommend you to come and check them out, you will not regret it. Victor S.
Great place for the family all around! My previous gym stopped offering kids class, but I loved it and after I found out my instructor was filling in here, I brought the family to try it out. The facility is brand new! New mats, showers, loaner go's for kids and adults and the owner, Jay, was really cool about letting me drop in to decide on the move. I wanted to focus on doing a tournament and my wife wants to get her conditioning and technique (nothing crazy). This gym is great for all! FYI, I hurt my knee and Jay was cool enough to let me use part of the mat (during class) to keep my conditioning and do light exercises on my own! Stop by and try it out, the place is legit.
I’ve been training here for a just under a year and it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. The instructors here are great. You will quickly find out that this place checks a lot of boxes checked off for you. You will develop a new skills, get a great workout, build an awesome community, and grow as a person in many other ways. It’s an honor to learn Gi-Jujitsu from Professor Jay Gabriel and No-Gi from Professor Ole and Holden. All the people who train here are great too - I’ve never once felt overwhelmed and have made many great practitioners as well. The upper belts are always willing to teach the newer belts from the first day forward. Even during my first two weeks, I felt like I belonged here. My two sons and wife have also followed the Jiu-jitsu journey. It feels good doing it together as a family too. You won’t be disappointed.
Our family has been training at Gracie Barra SW Portland for over a year now, and we couldn’t be happier! The coaches are fantastic—knowledgeable, patient, and truly invested in every student’s growth. Our child has gained so much confidence, discipline, and skill through their training here. The community is welcoming and supportive, making it a great environment for both kids and adults. Whether you’re new to jiu-jitsu or have experience, this is the perfect place to train and grow. Highly recommend!
Cannot recommend enough! Our son started in their Little Champions class when he was 3 1/2 and has been going consistently for almost 2 years now! The professors are amazing. They know each kid by name, they aren't just "another enrollment" here. They are incredible at commanding the kids' attention just by way of being respectful and demanding that respect back. We had tried a few places prior to Gracie Barra that had to resort to yelling at the kids to get attention and that was not for us! I love the skills and values our son is learning with GB- the skills are presented as self defense and not just a "fight to fight" approach, and they also teach from a growth mindset perspective. My husband started with Gracie Barra years ago in California and had trained with a few other schools when we were living in areas without access to a GB school and Gracie Barra is by far the best all around. Also love that with a monthly membership there
