We had the opportunity to drop in while we were in town, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Walking into a new gym can be intimidating for a child, but the coaches and students immediately made us feel welcome. The coaches took the time to include everyone, offered excellent instruction, and created a positive environment where the kids could learn, work hard, and have fun. It was obvious they genuinely care about every child who steps on the mats, even those who are just visiting. We’re so thankful they welcomed us for a class and treated us like part of the team. We’re grateful for the hospitality and look forward to dropping in again the next time we’re in town. If you’re looking for a place where kids are supported, challenged, and encouraged, we highly recommend stopping by.

First Day very welcoming and set the tone for mentorship, training in the discipline. Friendly yet firm coaching technique. Worth every minute of honored presence.

I have been coming Gracie Humaita for about 3 months. I cannot express how grateful I am to have found this school. It is very clean, very welcoming to a beginner, and all around great energy. Coach Luis is the best! The coaches work very closely with everyone to ensure they are picking up the subtleties that come with the moves and that we learning the correct methods.

This place is great. Nice people and nice team. They know what they are doing.

Great place and great people. Well worth it. More than 5 stars.

Great teaching and atmosphere

I highly recommend signing up if you're considering it. Im a single mother and I was struggling with behavioral issues with my 4yr old. He lacks respect and discipline. Since starting Jiujitsu my son's behavior has improved so much. Even his day care has noticed a huge difference. It's nice to relax and turn my brain off while my son learn new life skills. The instructors are stern and do not play. They're here to teach and im so thankful I feel like I can breathe finally. My son is starting to listen and understand respect for me and his elders and its only been 2months since starting. 10/10 recommend

Great BJJ gym for all our kids (3 boys 1 girl) to learn self defense and the sport, grow in strength, and develop discipline!

The best school. It’s a fun environment ☺️. Instructor Alexander is fantastic; I feel like part of the family when I come to my children's class 😊.

My son can be super shy to start but the staff has been so kind and welcoming. The coaches a GREAT with kids and can help with any newcomer who may be nervous. Thank you Coach Katie, Sam, Rich and Professor Alex!!

I cannot say enough good things about Gracie Jiu-Jitsu in Sparks! My 5 and 7-year-old daughters are absolutely loving their classes here. The instructors are phenomenal—they are incredibly engaging, patient, and helpful with the younger kids. They know exactly how to keep the lessons fun and exciting while still teaching valuable skills and building confidence. It is such a welcoming environment, and seeing my girls look forward to every class is amazing.
