Take your training to the next level with advanced techniques, live sparring, and the introduction of No-Gi.
The GB2 Program is designed for students who have built a strong foundation through GB1 and are ready to deepen their skills and push their training further.
With a focus on more advanced techniques, strategic drilling, positional awareness, and live sparring, GB2 offers a more intense and challenging experience – while still maintaining the structure and support Gracie Barra is known for.
This is also where students begin No-Gi training, expanding their understanding of Jiu-Jitsu by adapting techniques without the traditional uniform. No-Gi sessions help improve speed, agility, and grip control, preparing students for a broader range of competition and real-life scenarios.
Eligibility: Students must have at least 3 stripes on a white belt, typically earned after a minimum of 4 months of consistent training.
GB2 is where many students begin to refine their personal style, explore tactical thinking, and train at a more competitive pace – always in a safe, supportive environment.
Staying hydrated is essential. Bring a water bottle to keep refreshed throughout your training.
Wearing the official Gracie Barra Gi or No-Gi uniform reflects our team identity and maintains the high standards of our school.
Wear flip-flops or sandals to make it easy to step on and off the mat while keeping the training area clean.
While not mandatory, a mouthguard is strongly recommended for advanced classes involving live drills or sparring to protect your teeth and enhance safety.

Extremely disappointing experience. We stopped attending in mid-May but continued to be charged until the end of October. Despite confirming a refund amount in writing, they later refunded a different amount and even denied what they had previously committed to in writing. Very poor customer service, lack of accountability and completely unfair treatment. Would not recommend.Posted on Google![]()

They seem to be interested only in collecting payments, regardless of whether you actually participate in the course. Even when you completely stop attending, they don't bother to follow up or check what has happened. We had several detailed discussions with them when we decided to leave the course, and we mutually agreed on an end date. They even sent us an email confirming that date. However, when it came to refunding the additional payments made after the agreed end date, they simply claimed that the confirmation email was a mistake and refused to honour what had been agreed. Even worse, they continued charging us after the agreed end date. When we eventually noticed the extra charges and contacted them, their only response was, once again, that it was a mistake! (All the email communications are available) It seems that whenever there is an issue involving agreements, payments or customer service, they simply blame it on a mistake and expect the customer to accept it. Overall, we have had a very disappointing experience with them. Their service has been unreliable, their communication and payment processes have been inaccurate, and their approach to dealing with customers has been neither fair nor professional. Unfortunately, based on our experience, I would not recommend them. Customers deserve a business that honours its agreements, takes responsibility for its actions and treats them fairly.Posted on Google![]()

We’ve had the most Exceptional experience here. Our Daughter was very unsure about starting bjj, and after attending her first class she’s a different person and can’t get enough. We’ve been made to feel so welcome and love attending. We especially love professor Marcson ♥️ He is just incredible with kids. Thank you!Posted on Google![]()

Great place, nice people, definitely recommend it.
White belts with 3 stripes and above and all colored belts.
Yes. Sparring is an essential part of GB2, but partners are always matched based on experience to ensure safety and steady progress.
No-Gi training is Jiu-Jitsu practiced without the traditional Gi (kimono). It sharpens your technique, enhances athleticism, and prepares you for competition or self-defence in real-world situations.
Certified Gracie Barra instructors have been trained in the methods outlined by our founder, Master Carlos Gracie Jr. himself. The Gracie Barra Instructor Certification Program connects our instructors to the inspiring, time-tested methods, and proven strategies of Master Carlos Gracie Jr., while giving access to an unparalleled collection of ideas, information, and lessons to provide Gracie Barra students with an exceptional training experience. This is the legacy of our founder, and it is the same legacy we instill into each and every one of our students today.
