I’ve been training at Gracie Fighter for 6 months and cannot recommend it enough. Everyone there has been incredibly welcoming and Coach Guga is an amazing teacher. He has an amazing ability to break things down so beginners can easily understand and advanced students can grow. On top of learning new skills it’s a great workout.

Great place for all. Professors Guga, Sean, Cam, and Brian are world class instructors. Cesar is always around and has vast knowledge. You will find a great group of people from all walks that will help you grow and develop your skills.

I have been training at Gracie Fighter for about two years and would recommend it to everyone! Its great for self defense, mind development, strength, and exercise. Professor Guga teaches at a very understandable pace and teaches techniques that can be applied in real life. Hes an extremely good instructor and practitioner of BJJ. Doing BJJ is like a drug because of how addicting it is. I cant emphasize enough the level of fulfillment one gets after a good day of training.

The best place to learn jiu jitsu, and gain strength and confidence and friends. Cesar Gracie is there all the time and he pays attention to who is coming regularly and getting better. It is exciting to train with so many people who are so good and so supportive. The head instructor, Sean, is very good and nice. His girlfriend Gretchen is like a team captain for all the women, she is always there and always very supportive. This is a great place for new students and transplants. I have been going there for 10 years. When you come to train find me and tell me you read my review haha.

Best place to learn and practice Brazilian JuiJitsu in the Area. The coaches are top of class and make sure that you learn while having a good time, not to mention they train full respect. When competition time comes, most of the students place at the top of their respective class and its easy to see why. Count me in to support this place as long as possible, truly a unique find for which I am highly thankful.

The Best Jiu Jitsu Gym in the area!!!Here are a few reasons why my family and I feel this way after just after a few month:1 The Owner - Cesar is there regularly. Other gyms you may find will just use a big name and you only see them at upper belt ceremonies. Cesar and his entire family very approachable and gracious to all no matter if its your first time or your tenth year to there!2 The Instructors - They have the most proper balance of being firm and kind at the same time. This was such a blessing for our son who was being bullied. Cam (the youth instructor) has been amazing since the first moment he put his arm around him and let him know everything is going to be okay now. He keeps the kids in line, but they also have fun at the same time. Hes firm, but so kind at the same time. There is a reason why the youth do just as well as the adults in competition under the Gracie banner.3 The Family - We intentionally gave it some time before we wrote this review. Cesar, his wife, kids, and parents embraced us like long lost family day one. This has only grown since then and we have found that this is common for every family that attends. The same goes for Cam with the kids and all of their parents. The women instructor is the same and my daughter loves to learn from her as well. There are no egos here. In fact, this is the most humble group of people Ive ever encountered. You only have to watch MMA to learn that the Martial Art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu speaks for its self and that Gracie Jiu Jitsu is the best in the world. For what its worth, these are just a few other reasons why my family and I feel that Gracie Sports Center in Pleasant Hill is the Best of the Best!
