At Gracie Gulf Coast Jiu Jitsu, our goal is help you on your want to becoming the best version of you. Don't wait another day to unlock your true potential. I have trained with Professor Jay many times and he teaches you not just the moves, but also the theory and concepts of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. After training with him I have noticed how I analyze the sparring I do and how I am able to implement the game plan.

If you live in the area I highly recommend training with Prof Jay. Took my grandson to a trial for a week and he loved it. He decided to stay and become a member. Jay is an awesome instructor and he teaches in a way that even young children can understand. He treats everyone with respect and kindness.

Great place to train. Stopped in from out of town, welcomed me in and got right to work. I will be coming back if I’m in this area again. Instead of a mat fee he asked I buy a shirt which was perfect the more people who know and train jiu jitsu the better, more people should be doing this. 🤙🏼

Great gym, friendly people. I dropped in from out of town and was welcomed. The professor is knowledgeable and their Muay Thai class is fun as well!

I'm a competitor from an East Coast school that recently moved to the Gulf Coast area. I visited the Gracie Gulf Coast for the first time today and had a great time! The gym was neat, clean and had a warm atmosphere. Jay was extremely welcoming and friendly. His technique on the mats was amazing-- flawless and relaxed. Jay is a perfect example of a Jiu-Jitsu instructor and I look forward to attending many more classes under him. I highly recommend Gracie Gulf Coast for all grapplers, beginners and seasoned practitioners.

I have trained with Professor Jay and he doesn't just teach you the techniques of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. He gives you the mental side of it as well, the 5 W's and how to apply the techniques. If you are in the area I would highly recommend going and checking out this school. Plus he is an Air Force vet 😀

Was in town for a few weeks and Coach Jay allowed me to come train with his team. Everyone was incredibly nice and the gym had a great, welcoming atmosphere. Definitely recommend.

It’s smaller than most but it’s an amazing school with an outstanding and unique teacher who knows what he’s talking about! It’s a friendly, well kept, safe, and sanitary environment with well tailored aesthetic. The students under Jay (the instructor)are definitely learning what’s being taught, and truly learning how to apply that knowledge unlike most other schools. Everyone is very welcoming to new people, some more cordial than others, yet every one of them is willing to help you start or continue your path in the jiu jitsu!

As a first-timer I wasn't sure what to expect, but I loved the class. I'll definitely be back!

Visiting Biloxi for two days and dropped by Gracie Gulf Coast to get some training in. The place is beautiful and very clean. Jay, the professor/owner, was extremely friendly and welcoming. His students gave me some great rolls and I would recommend him if you are in the area!
