Martial Arts Schools in Columbia picked by BestProsInTown
“My daughter has been attending class at Gracie Barra for about 3 months and absolutely loves it! The teachers are incredible with the kids - very patient and supportive but also very knowledgeable. We’ve tried several different sports and activities, and my daughter hasn’t taken to almost anything quite like Jiu Jitsu here at GB.”
“Since moving away from Missouri, it has been so hard to find a taekwondo school as good as this one. Master Hockman and all the instructors are amazing! They’ve created such a welcoming, family-friendly place where you truly feel like you belong. As a mom, that kind of environment means so much to me. I learned so much here, from improving my technique, coordination, and strength to developing practical self-defense skills and becoming more confident in my abilities. What I gained goes well beyond the classes. The community is just as special as the training. I made real, meaningful friendships here, and that’s something you don’t find everywhere. I truly miss training here and the people who made it feel like a second home. This school set the bar so high, and I can’t recommend it enough!”
“Excellent dojo, great instructors, Master Rifkin is amazing. Kids enjoy. Good balance of discipline and fun.”
