Martial Arts Schools in Corpus Christi

“I can’t say enough great things about the Gracie Barra Corpus Christi academy! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed, respected, and supported. The professors create a positive, professional atmosphere where safety is clearly a top priority, and they take the time to make sure everyone feels comfortable—especially women who may be new to the sport.

The culture here is truly empowering. Training partners are encouraging, the instruction is top-notch, and there is a strong sense of community on and off the mats. Whether you’re looking to build confidence, learn self-defense, or challenge yourself physically and mentally, this academy provides an environment where you can grow without intimidation.

If you’re a woman considering jiu-jitsu but feel hesitant to start, this is absolutely the place to be. You’ll be surrounded by people who want to see you succeed!“

“I have been training Jiu Jitsu for the last 10 months @ Renzo Gracie Texas: Team Arredondo. Professor Ruben is very knowledgeable and will guide you through all the stages of understanding and learning the basics of Jiu Jitsu. The team is fantastic and I like training with them every week. “Lobo”“
