Mi hijo disfruta mucho del tiempo en esta escuela, ademas de fomentar en el la disciplina y mayor seguridad.
Excellent place. Its doors open every day with flexible hours. I came to visit and they made me feel at home. 100% recommended.
My son Lucas trains at another gym we live n hour plus away, we went for 3 days Pans Camp and it was a game changer for my son, highly recommend this gym , great staff and talented kids who love to train jiu jitsu .
Fun clean and great instructors. Never attempt a buggie choke

Perfect classes and amazing teaching with very welcoming and respectful people.
My son was very welcomed by all here as a visitor from our home gym, GB Melbourne Fl. The coaches were incredibly kind to him and the kid that he was paired up with showed great sportsmanship. If you are GB member this place is a great place to visit if you’re in town. My son left asking when he could come back. We hope to return one day. Thank you GB Kissimmee.
Awesome teachers and great piers definitely would go back once I have the money for it.
As a visitor from out of town they were extremely friendly and welcoming. The week of training prior to Pans was greatly appreciated. Thank you to all of the people I worked with.
As a bjj black belt I have trained many places across our great country. I can say with zero reservations that this is a very high level academy with the most welcoming group of practitioners I have ever encountered.

Professor Andrade and his team are skilled and passionate for the Gracie Barra method and amazing in their support of all the students belonging to the GB family. Visited today as their guest supporting the Pan Am competitors.
GBK is a great place to train. I’ve had so much fun challenging myself and learning to push my limits. The class structure is perfect; warm ups, drilling, and then grappling. All of the instructors are great at teaching concepts and breaking them down into understandable steps. If you’re looking to try something new and make some great friends, give GBK a try!
Gracie barra kissimmee is a fun and safe environment for me. Ive learn so much, is a life changing experience. I highly recommend this place.
Amazing Home, not even a Gym. Everyone respectful and friendly, learning is simple and as well physical and mental.
I started my Jiu Jitsu journey at GB Kissimmee. They set the bar high in terms of experience, welcoming community and training space. So much value. The professors are great instructors. Professor Igor has a passion and kindness about him that brings the whole thing together. I definitely recommend training at GB Kissimmee. (I drop-in any time I'm in town.) Thank you GB Kissimmee Team!
GB Kissimmee is a great Jiu Jitsu School in the area! Instructors are incredible and well rounded in their knowledge, the students are tough and welcoming, and the whole environment is great for anyone.

The instructors are knowledgeable, approachable, and create a positive learning environment. If you're looking for top-notch jujitsu training, this is the place to be! Five stars without a doubt.

This place is garbage… they hit my account with late fees and overdraft after the membership being cancelled for months and I still get messages that they are trying to withdraw money from my acct..
Come prepared; I was expecting something like a Ted Talk tutorial but got a full blown class session. The instructor was great, ppl in the class were super helpful. All in all it was a great experience and I’m part of Gracie Barra now to make a long review short.
My son trained here while on vacation. It's an amazing gym with very high standard instructors and students. We were made feel very welcome by Igor and the whole gym. Would highly recommend
Great experience and well trained coaches.
Very welcoming made me feel at ease Some very talented members.
Welcoming, clean, great training.
A very impressive place. Even though I was from a different school, I was made to feel very welcome. Great training and I thoroughly recommend.
I arrived for my first session and was immediately greeted when I walked in the door. Shortly after arriving, Igor approached me, introduced himself and gave me a run down of how the evening would go.

I arrived for my first session and was immediately greeted when I walked in the door. Shortly after arriving, Igor approached me, introduced himself and gave me a run down of how the evening would go. I was extremely nervous as I'm not great around large groups of people, but I was welcomed with open arms. After the session ended, I was approached by several members who introduced themselves and treated me as if they had known me for years. All of them were extremely kind and helped alleviate any anxiety I had, especially about being the newest person there. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a place to learn new skills while gaining a huge family at the same time. Less
Excellent training, very welcoming and beautiful facility. Appreciate letting me drop in while traveling
This is my son's first tryout of Brazilian jiu-jitsu and he loves it and is always asking to go back to them they are great they get on their level and help them learn the techniques it's definitely helping my son. 10 out of 10 i would recommend this place !
Great gym! I visited the gym for a training during my holiday. Great class with good instructions and the right BJJ-vibe.
Great experience hosting a women’s self defense class here! Very friendly, comfortable and educational team.
No soy alumno ni tengo parientes en la academia,pero paso x ahi y me gusta ver como entrenan,el lugar es amplio,,ordenado y limpio,los alumno se ven a gusto,para todas las edades,se ven varios instructores ,si es x lo que veo,lo recomiendo,,,
My kids visited their Pans camp. Very clean and welcoming place. Great people and facility.
This place it's super nice, Wow!!!
very clean and friendly environment. Everyone was so nice and welcoming. Professor Lulu was very nice as well . 10/10 would come back here on my next trip to Kissimmee !
I visited this gym while traveling to Kissimmee to compete at PANS. Pedro was extremely hospitable and his students were great. I got a great workout in which is exactly what I wanted. Thanks! Seth
Great place to train! I had a very nice experience there as a visitor. Thank you professor Lulu for your kindness.
Ótima estrutura, tratamento sempre limpo, ambiente familiar, treinadores atenciosos. Recomendo
Visiting from out of town and found this gym to train. 6am and 8am classes were awesome the professor Ray and professor Lulu were most welcoming.

It is very fun I did the 7 day free but me and my siblings are definitely going to do monthly
The best jiu-jitsu gym I've visited in my life.
Great facility, great training, welcoming environment.

This was a really awesome academy :) My team and I came down to help prepare for a competition and Professor Igor and the whole team were incredibly welcoming. There is plenty of mat space and I felt safe training with everyone. Thank you and hope to visit again! :)
The Gracie's are the Pioneers of Brazilian Ju Jitsu. They are the True Founders of this wonderful Martial Art. I've been watching Royce Gracie beat up opponents 3 times bigger than him since the 90's.
I travel a lot and drop in at Gracie Barra locations all over the world as well as other non affiliates and this location stands out above the rest. The professors and students were very polite and their jiu jitsu was on point. If you live here or are just visiting, I highly recommend learning at this academy. Thank you prof Igor!!!
My son loves all of them!! They are so friendly!!!
Very nice and understanding people🤙
In town for PANS and arrived a few days before the tournament. Got to train a couple days and it was awesome. Amazing school, professor, coaches, and students. Thank you for the hospitality. 🤙🏼
Amazing facility and great vibes!

It was awesome to speak to a bjj practitioner with his wealth of knowledge and world experience. He complimented me on my prescription glasses (he wears the same brand). I trained and was partnered up with a few other black belts. Tge training was unique and great. All in all, I really enjoyed training at this location. My only gripe was that I couldn't make time to train here more while in the area. I hope to train here again in the future. Less
They give a trial week free so my grandsons are going to try it

I would highly recommend everyone living in this area or visiting to go train and meet some new friends. The mat fees are very reasonable. Very nice, clean facility. Thanks again for the lessons. 🤙🏽🤙🏽 Less
I came to Gracie Barra Kissimmee while on vacation. They were very professional and open to new students. I had a fantastic time learning takedowns and guard passes. I finished the day off with several high caliber rolling sessions with some phenomenal Jiu-Jitsu practitioners. Thank to everyone there for the outstanding experience. I will definitely be back ! Ichiro Blue belt.
10/10 would recommend to anyone of any age and is trying to learn self defense or even training to go to competitions. From striking to grappling they have it all

Really great gym to learn and train bjj totally recomended!!!
You can really see how much passion all the instructors have when they’re teaching class. I think that anyone can benefit from jiu jitsu including women. Highly recommend!

This goes for the adults too. Most, if not all, of the instructors have competition credits to their name at every belt level. Some of them at the World Level. Whatever your level of experience or interest is, here you receive excellent Technical instruction and World-Class training; every day of the week! Less

An amazing and professional team that guides new and old students they foster growth and development. Challenging, fun and exhilarating. Always something exciting at Gracie Barra.
Highly recommend I have 12 year old and he is love it.
Absolutely incredible place to train and grow as a person. The instructors are amazing and take their time with you. They actually care about your safety and the hygiene of their students.

They are even all smiles and warmth with my one year old when she is trying to climb over the wall to get to everyone on the mat, or when she is trying to call everyone over to play with her. I never even once worry about my son when I have to walk out with her so that she isn't distracting everyone, because I know he is in great hands. Less

This school is amazing. Professor Igor is a real pro and such a great teacher. You can tell he genuinely wants everyone to succeed in their jiu jitsu goals.

Brilliant Club my young son attended classes whilst we were visiting from Gracie Barra Bolton in UK. Professor Igor was very supportive and the whole club has a great atmosphere just like ours in UK
I have trained in Florida for 18 years and Professor Igor is a great individual that has dedicated his life to Jiu Jitsu and his students. GB Kissimmee has produced some great athletes and more importantly individuals of high character. This academy is an awesome place to train for kids and adults as well. I highly recommend stopping by and seeing what this GB family is all about!
The best Brazilian jiu-jitsu school in Kissimmee!

Very good environment of students all trying to learn and practice advanced techniques. Very high skilled martial artists all around from white belt to black. Im glad i got to test my own skills against very experienced fighters, and see how well I am able to hold up. I would give this place 5 stars but I dont like how the only way I was able to test my skills was writing a bad review . I already knew the purpose of my invitation to the academy was for them to try and embarres me because the instructor thinks im a disrespectful student which is a completely wrong impression of who I REALLY am. Overall im glad I got to roll around with advanced students and learn new things . There very open minded and dont mind teaching you things. For master igor, i say this, I NEVER said your class was bad . I said the way you approached me just for trying to test my skill is very bad. I thought I could handle your white belts and maybe even a blue if i got lucky but they Are ALOT more skilled than I expected . I never thought I could win , I ONLY wanted to test my skill for my own benefit. Never to disrespect . You have very skilled students and can teach well. Even though you technically banned me from your academy , This will not stop my mission of being the #1 fighter in MMA. I will continue my training and train at another gracie jui jitsu somewhere else. I hope to be welcome to visit sometime in the future to roll and learn with you and your students in your class. This will conclude my honest review. I'll let you know if I can walk tomorrow haha Less
Igor Andrade, you lead your students to success!!!! It is the characteristic of a great teacher like you!!! Thank you
