The GB1 Program sets the foundation for your Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

You will learn how to take your opponent to the ground and use various techniques including Jiu-Jitsu Guard, Jiu-Jitsu Sweeps, and classic Jiu-Jitsu submissions such as the armbar and triangle.
The Gracie Barra Program Structure defines three main stages of development for students: the Fundamentals Program, the Advanced Program and the Black Belt Program. These stages indicate different maturity levels and students upgrade from one to the other in their own natural progression.

You will develop new reflexes, speed and reaction time as well as learn transitions between one technique and another.

The Gracie Barra Black Belt Program is the growth stage in GB's adult program structure. While it does represent your arrival at the ultimate level of training in our school, it also represents a new beginning. The goal of this program is to further develop your BJJ game flow by cutting edge Jiu-Jitsu techniques and their variations.

Started my journey in 2014 and loved every bit of it.
I had to take time away from 2017-2020 but once I came back, I was welcomed with open arms.
The professors are the best. I really enjoy spending my time at the gym learning from the best.
Everyone is so friendly and we have a family environment. I can't wait until my daughter is old enough to step on the mats to train!
Thank you GB Chino for everything.

We came to Geacie Barra Chino in May looking to put our son in some form of martial arts to help with coordination and concentration, as well as give him something to do. He's 7 and wasn't sure what he wanted to do, but the one time trial sold us! It seemed like a positive environment and everyone seemed really nice. Not long after we signed up for 4 months did our son start expressing his dislike for Ju Jitsu. I e-mailed them asking how we could work together to get him more excited and interested. All I was told was that this is normal and takes time for some kids to really get the

I first found out about Gracie Barra Chino from a family friend and shortly joined afterwards. I was blown away at how accepting and supportive the community is. As a beginner in martial arts, Gracie Barra was the perfect school to develop my skills from a beginner to an advanced student. The instructors have always been encouraging and over the years have been a big contribution to the development of my self confidence as well as my mindset. I've fallen in love with jiujitsu because of this school and plan to continue expanding my skill set here. Now whenever I'm asked questions about

I recommend Gracie Barra Chino to anyone looking to train in martial arts. The Brazilian jiu jitsu taught at this gym is top notch.
My family and I have been members of Gracie Barra for five years now, with myself and all three of my kids training at the gym. My two oldest, boys 9 and 8, have become so confident without lacking humility. Much of this can be attributed to Professor Rafael and the awesome crew at GB Chino. Walking in five years ago and signing my kids up was such a blessing.
We have made so many great friends at GB Chino, and even though the gym has grown in size, it still

My son and myself started our 1st day of training yesterday. We trained at another school for close to 5 years. But felt welcomed at once as soon as we got to Gracie Barra. Very clean Environment. And very knowledgeable instructors. Thank you to my new instructors and teammates for the hospitality and great teaching/training. Would highly recommend anybody 2 train here.

This location has an amazing kids program. My son has been going here since he turned 4, about 1 1/2 years now. Professor Milton is wonderful with the kids. It is not only instruction but fun games too. My husband goes as well and loves it. We plan on putting my 3 year old in the moment he turns 4! Great for teaching my boys confidence and self control and of course, self defense!

The instructors start out as just that "Instructors". But soon after you join they become your friends, as do the other people in the classes.
I have gained confdence , physical strength and cardio, and a bunch of friends that help me grow as a martial artist every time I train.
I was a little bit nervous to start but the nervosness went away fast and the fun began.
GREAT STAFF! The best in the business, BAR NONE.
If there was 6 stars I would give them 7!

I don't know where to start with how great this gym is. I'm so happy I was introduced to this gym and the amazing people of this place. My daughters love their training and now they've pulled me into it. It's absolutely a bright side of my week each and every time I walk in and I plan to keep it up, making this a lifestyle for our family.
I'm proud to be a member here.

Great Jiu Jitsu academy! Everyone is so friendly, which makes a great learning environment. Prof. Rafael and Prof. Bryan are very knowledgeable and patient. You can tell that they both love the art of jiu jitsu and are happy to spread the knowledge that they have acquired. They offer classes throughout the day, so it is easy to find a class that would best fit your schedule. The academy is very spacious, so you don't have to worry about rolling over someone while training. I almost forgot to mention that they keep this place very clean, which is very important.

This school is great. Our son Max age 9 started about 5 months ago and we are very proud of his change in confidence and demeanor . The staff are great and make it a fun place for everyone to learn. Professors Rafael and Brian have the ability to teach and the patience to repeat and demonstrate every step. We love the pep talks at the end.

Rafael and everyone here is so awesome. People check their egos at the door and are all interested in helping one another learn.
I love training here. Usually when I go work out I dread it deep down inside but whenever it's time to come to Brazilian jiu jitsu I'm always super excited. Professor Rafael is so great at explaining stuff. He has an awesome sense of humor and a calming presence that helps create a great learning environment. I'm pretty uncoordinated so if I can make progress I'm sure anyone can.
The students here are all very nice and helpful while they defeat
