After trying different martial arts programs, we finally found the perfect place!! Our 10yrs old son learned not only Ju-Jitsu but also acquired mental strength through the program. Really appreciate Professor Andar and Trenelle's continuous support especially when our son goes through challenging times.
We are happy to see he is always engaged in every activities they offer and having fun with other students!
Grateful for having such a great program with pick up service right after school in Lake Country where the after school care is limited.

★★★★★
The Adult Jiu Jitsu class provides a great, accessible place to practice and learn the martial art. The classes are well paced and strike a great balance between fitness, technique and sparring. The environment is friendly, welcoming and encourages growth.

I knew when, before he could crawl, my 6 month old started taking down my 2 year old, that we would need a form of low contact martial arts in our house. Teaching my oldest how to safely defend himself without hurting his younger brother has been invaluable. I am happy to trade the common sibling hitting, kicking and biting for armbars and chokeholds with appropriate responses to tapping out. Even more important to me is the integration of functional movement and play. They do a fantastic job getting the kids to train functional movement patterns (like crawling), under the guise of playing exterminator or turtle tag. As a chiropractor with a focus on pediatrics and back ground in physical education, I can’t emphasize enough how valuable this is for kids motor and cognitive development.

★★★★★
My 4 year old has never loved an activity or sport as much as he loves Gracie Barra! He asks daily to go. Every night at dinner he wants to show us his push-ups and jumping jacks. He is eager to learn and has shown huge improvements in self-control and patience. Can’t recommend the professors enough. They make it a fun and safe environment that the kids thrive in.
Thank you!
Thank you!

As a parent, witnessing the remarkable progress and development in my neurodivergent four year old after just one month of classes has been everything. My daughter is incredibly quiet, sensitive and overwhelms fairly easily - I was really concerned about putting her into martial arts, however, it’s really important to our family that she has these values and skills for when she starts school.

★★★★★
The best! I cannot believe how much confidence my little one has gained in such a short time. It would not be possible without the friendly and encouraging kids, professor Andar knowing how much the kids are ready for, and Trenell creating a sense of connection with every child and family.

★★★★★
My son started training at Gracie Barra in September, and he absolutely loves it!!! Andar and Trenell do such an incredible job. They have so much patience with all of the kids, and always make sure the kids are not only having fun, but are learning the skills and the confidence they need to progress in the sport. This is such a valuable extracurricular activity in my opinion. I can't recommend Andar and Trenell enough, they are so passionate about what they do, and it truly shows.

★★★★★
Our experience with GB Lake Country has been fun-filled and amazing. My kids have learned so much and have gained so much confidence. Andar and Trennel do an incredible job, they are very patient and my kids always have so much fun. I have loved seeing their progress! It is such a productive activity for high-energy kids!
The adults class has been so informative and valuable. I look forward to going and expanding my knowledge while getting in an awesome workout.

★★★★★
We’ve been members of Gracie Barra since they opened, and from day one it’s been a great experience for me and my kids. Andar and Trenell have done a great job of teaching discipline while also showing a tremendous amount of patience with all the students. They do a great job of making the kids and parents feel like part of an extended family. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an great extracurricular for their kids.

★★★★★
My kids have been going to Gracie Barra for a few months now, and I have nothing but positive things to say. Andar is a patient, passionate teacher of the art, helping children learn about dedication, hard work while still making each lesson playful and fun. Trenell you are a friendly face, making the kids feel comfortable on and off the mat, it’s been nothing but a great experiences for our family ♥️ S

★★★★★
We cannot say enough positive things about this program for lake country kids! Our 5 year old adores Trenell and Andar, and loves his classes so much! They make it so fun and inviting for lake country families, we are so happy we found them!

★★★★★
My Son who’s extremely adverse to trying new things started at Gracie Barra in February and has loved every minute of it. Andar is very patient with the kiddos and can command the class as needed in a gentle and kind way. It’s a clean a bright space that I feel comfortable leaving my son at anytime. In fact he also spent a few days of the March Break with his jujitsu family. Trenell is also very accommodating and transparent with any questions or changes that I have had to make during the last 3 months. I would highly recommend their facility to anyone. Thank you Andar and Trenell!

★★★★★
Andar and Trenell are such a positive influence on my daughter! Their kindness and encouragement is always very evident. The extra confidence that she is gaining from practising Jui jitsu will be with her for the rest of her life and she always comes home with a smile on her face! Thank you for providing such a positive environment for Lake Country youth!

★★★★★
We have our daughter enrolled in the after care program which is amazing! Trenell and Andar pick up our daughter from school and bring her to the studio for after school fun and an hour jiu jitsu class! She is learning skill, discipline and respect. I strongly recommend this new addition to Lake Country! Great job!

★★★★★
My 12y old son is enjoying attending class and learning lots of cool moves. I can see it impacting his confidence levels at home and at school. Professor Andar and Trenell have built a wonderfully run business. The atmosphere is positive and friendly. Located in a beautiful brand new building with lots of big windows allowing wonderful natural light inside.

★★★★★
100% would recommend. Both of my kids are huge fans. So much to be learned in a safe, encouraging, and empowering environment.

★★★★★
I look so forward to my time here each week! Thanks for running homeschool classes and for being so kind and inclusive!

★★★★★
Family Run, Family Friendly, Very Welcoming, A great new addition to Lake Country.

★★★★★
Gracie Barra Academy was so sweet to host our birthday party! We rented the academy and it was perfect. They had a speaker so we could listen to music, they put up tables and chairs, and we brought decorations to put. I couldn't have asked for a better venue. Will do again!!!

★★★★★
Started at Gracie Barra Lake Country about 3 months ago in the adult class. Great atmosphere and very cool place to learn as a beginner. Professor Andar is a great teacher! Can’t say enough good things about this place and about the people who run it. Sing up now to learn from a pro.

★★★★★
We held my daughter’s 4th birthday party here when the smoke was bad outside. It was AMAZING! The owners were very accommodating and the kids had a blast! Renting the space is very reasonably priced and they provided chairs, tables and a bouncy castle. Highly recommend booking a party here!

★★★★★
Gracie Barra has been great for our son Leo. He’s gaining skill and confidence in Ju-Jitsu and most importantly having fun with his peers. Professor Trenell and Andar are great with the kids and encourage good sportsmanship and individual participation. I would recommend it to any one looking for a Ju-Jitsu club!

★★★★★
My son started with them 3 months ago and he eagerly waits for the class everyday. Trenell and Andar are both super nice trainers and treat kids like family. Highly recommend the Gracie Barra in Lake Country 👍
