★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Gracie jiu-jitsu Brattleboro is the best! George is an amazing instructor and does so great with the kids. I have the chance to see him with both the little champs and the junior grapplers because both my boys are in jiu-jitsu. Nothing bad to say at all and I recommend getting your kids or your self signed up!
February 01 · ariana slicerFantastic, affordable and fun. George is a great welcoming and knowledgeable instructor. I went from having zero background in sports or martial arts and a ton of anxiety and self esteem around participating to loving every class I can go to.
October 04 · Dakota RobertsCan't recommend this school highly enough. I started studying JiuJitsu here after taking an extended break from martial arts.I've found George to be a capable, knowledgeable, and skilled instructor who presents techniques with depth and humor. I can say he's also done a great job fostering a supportive and welcoming environment; the other folks in Adult Combatives class have been friendly, encouraging, and always ready to jump in and answer questions or offer help.Personally I enjoy the learning format of Combatives, learning the core principles of JiuJitsu as they apply to practical self defense before anything else, but it does mean focusing on learning basics first before jumping into sparring, so be ready for a long term focus on practice and drills.Bonus, you get access to Gracie University online, which is an amazing resource, and you can drop in for classes at any other Gracie gym (if you're traveling).Really awesome all round and so happy I decided to take the plunge and get back into martial arts, BJJ specifically, here. I feel more confident each week and honestly look forward to every lesson!If you're wondering if you might like it, drop in and give it a try. You get a trial period so you can drop in on a few classes. Win win. Do it!
January 12 · Kyle LedouxI can't say enough good things about the jiu-jitsu classes here! My kids attend the Bullyproof class, and I've seen their confidence grow tremendously. The techniques are practical, and the kids have fun while learning valuable skills to stand up for themselves. I also take the adult combatives class, and it’s been incredible. George is an outstanding instructor—he's knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely cares about each student's progress. He creates a supportive environment that’s both challenging and rewarding. Highly recommend for anyone looking to build skills, confidence, and community!
October 26 · Darrell GravesMy son loves training here. George, the lead instructor, holds a very positive and welcoming energy. I have observed many classes and would recommend this program to any parent. The students are engaged and their instruction covers not only grapping techniques but character building life skills as well. George offers a risk-free 10 day trial. My son was hesitant at first to try a martial art - he committed immediately after his first class. I endorse with the highest enthusiasm. Great community!
