  A month into my training and really enjoying the process. The facility is great! The professors are invested in each student's development and growth as are the more senior students I've been paired up with. The environment is friendly and collaborative. Seeing my growth in the last month has been very rewarding. Definitely recommend for for anyone interested in Jiu-Jitsu to give it a try.

  Thank you Amanda, Rodrigo and Carlos!!! We are visiting family in SLC from out of state and visited Gracie Barra West Jordan and SLC, both places greatly managed. Kids classes for my 7 yr old twins were great and many options to choose from to train myself in the adult classes. Clean atmosphere, super friendly staff and knowledgeable professors. Thank you again and we will definitely come back next time we are in town.

  I want to thank the whole staff at Gracie Barra Salt Lake City for opening their doors for my daughter to train. We were on a family vacation and my daughter wanted to keep her skills up before an IBJJF. Professor Rodrigo allowed her to train in a couple classes and then even spent time providing additional training after class. Gracie Barra SLC is clean and professional and the kids all showed a great deal of respect to the Professors.
Sign your kids up for Jiu-Jitsu!! It has made my kids so confident in their daily lives. They get used to being physically close with people which allows them to not be taken off guard if adversity ever comes their way.
Thanks again GB Salt Lake/West Jordan!
