Join the Team

At the core of the extraordinary success of the Gracie Barra Family over the years lies our deep philosophy and group mission — a foundation that our masters established long ago and that continues to be reinforced by the great people who are part of our community. Jiu-Jitsu is a beautiful art, and we have a vision of how it should be taught: as a means of personal development that goes beyond the competitive sphere. To achieve this vision, we must come together as a family, always putting the team first. That’s why we fight until the end for what we believe is right.
