Reviews
What Happy parents are saying?
I can’t recommend this gym enough. Both my kids do BJJ here (ages 4 & 7). The class structure is always predictable and appropriate, while the content remains engaging and fun. The coaches are all incredible, they make great effort to engage all the kids while refining their focus and discipline. The senior coaching staff are brilliant people and coaches also. Great for exercise, socialise, antibullying, conflict diffusion and self defence. I’ve seen a great development in confidence in both my kids and their peers from being part of this community.

I cannot recommend Gracie Barra Mona Vale highly enough! My daughter has been attending classes here since they opened and absolutely loves it. Pedro and the entire staff are incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and passionate about what they do. They create a welcoming and inclusive environment where everyone feels supported and encouraged to grow in their martial arts journey. The facilities are top-notch, with plenty of space for training. I also appreciate that the staff places a strong emphasis on safety, ensuring that all students are learning proper technique and staying injury-free.

Gracie Barra Mona Vale was recommended to us for our 7 year old daughter. It has been loads of fun for her while learning many new skills and building strength and confidence. Also helping to keep working on something challenging instead of giving up when something is tricky. I also joined so I can also recommend this place for men in their 40s to learn something new and fun.

My son has started not long ago at GB Mona Vale and he loves it. They offer an inclusive and friendly atmosphere, not only on the mat but also outside! We are very happy to have found them!
Fabiana Lima Muller
The most wonderful and kind team of coaches who take the time to develop relationships with children to support them not just in jiu jitsu but to stand up for themselves.
