Gracie Barra North Orlando BJJ

I joined the women’s-only Jiu-Jitsu class a couple of weeks ago, and I’ve loved every second of it! It’s rare to find a gym that offers a class like this, and I’m so grateful to have found it. Professor Sabrina is incredibly respectful, patient, and kind—she takes the time to guide you through every movement and is always happy to answer questions. The women in the class are so welcoming, which made starting BJJ with zero experience much less intimidating. Seeing women of all ages training together is truly inspiring—it’s never too late to start! Couldn’t rave about this place more.

lots of quality!! 🥋

Amazing structure and team

THE best, point blank. Having been to multiple gyms, this place is phenomenal. Professor Lawrence and the staff treat you like family and so do all other belts. If you really want to learn more about this art, this is the place to come. Thank you guys for what you teach and I'm thankful for the experience and YEARS to come.

Fantastic academy and instructors! I’m a visitor from St. Louis and have dropped in a couple times. They are very competent and welcoming at this location. The students are great, and I always look forward to visiting when I can make it to this facility. The mats are impeccably clean as well as the rest of the facilities. Easily my favorite GB in the Orlando area.

I want to thank this school for the training. I was a visitor from out of town. In Orlando for work the team was welcoming and the training was awesome. The professors were fantastic. Great school if I ever make it back this way this school will be a must stop. Again thank you.

Professor Lawrence is a passionate and extremely welcoming instructor. Thank you!

GB N Orlando is flat out amazing! Professor Gutty is not only an incredible instructor but also an incredible person. My son has been training since he was 5, and I’ve been training for 2 years. I can’t say more good things about GB N Orlando. The instruction starting in Fundamentals led by Prof Lawrence is welcoming, safe, and respectful. He really cares for each student and puts his heart and soul into each students development. The advanced class led by Prof Gutty is awesome, fun, incredibly challenging, and has given me so much confidence and satisfaction. He will spend as much time as needed to help and is always approachable. Professor Marco is also somebody that puts his heart and soul into his students and has helped me tremendously. Actually all the black belts (any belt for that matter) help, guide, and teach us lower belts both technique and the “art” of grappling. If you want to join a community of really incredible people all pursuing a higher version of themselves thru the medium of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, this is the place to be.
