The instructors are excellent and very knowledgeable. The way the instructors carry themselves is unparalleled. 5 stars across the board.
It's a perfect place to take your little one. The coaches have a lot of patience for the children and work on motivating them to continue practicing. My son loves to get promoted so he's learning that hard work and dedication lead to results.
Phil and Alex are by far the best instructors/ professors/ coaches I’ve met. They break every technique down and use basic concepts to help me personally get through the class and get down the technique . What I like most about this DOJO as a whole is the camaraderie of families and stability of the teaching of techniques
Overall great environment and a great community to train
Greetings, I came across this gym and procrastinated to join for about a year as I was intimidated but finally built up the courage to reach out and finally give it a try. BJJ is a physical sport and was nervous it was going to be a Cobra Kai scenario (silly me).

Greetings, I came across this gym and procrastinated to join for about a year as I was intimidated but finally built up the courage to reach out and finally give it a try. BJJ is a physical sport and was nervous it was going to be a Cobra Kai scenario (silly me). But that’s far from the truth, from the first day I joined the gym had a brotherhood atmosphere, the instructor/professors are welcoming and friendly, everyone in the class is more then willing to give a helping hand and everyone is locked in to get better and displayed the utmost respect to holding up the legacy of the Gracie name. The class is challenging and is physically demanding but with the open arms this gym has provided, is more than positive to push your limits to give you the tools to be a better person and fighter.

Great communication and awesome teachers!
Great learning atmosphere, filled with positive and encouraging people!
Very welcoming environment, Friendly team. You can tell everyone wants to help support each other to learn and grow, I’d highly recommend this place to anyone.
started like a week ago, love it, everyone here is so kind and wants you to improve. very addicting and extremely fun
Great place for beginners, great staff
Exactly what I was looking for, instructor’s are knowledgeable and signing up was easy.
We appreciate the family friendly environment. Our teen son is learning much more than jiu-jitsu. They live up to their motto "jiu-jitsu for everyone".
My kids love the sparing at the end of each session. They feel this is where they can really use the techniques that are shown to them!
Friendly and helpful staff. Made it easy to start practicing immediately.
Alex is a great coach! He helped my son get started in this new sport. All the other coaches are as good at helping the students understand and get better with the moves. I really like the atmosphere there. Highly recommend!
My son has a lot of energy and needed a place to channel it. On his first day of class I was sold. The place is very clean with professional hands on instructors where safety is paramount. Can't wait to see his development- GO GRACIE
After searching through different schools, we stumbled across GB Whittier via Yelp. First impressions of the place is that it’s clean and orderly (I’ve passed there many times over the years but never inside). We went over the weekend and my 6 year old was crying 😭 because he didn’t know what to expect. Alex, the owner was very courteous and informative. My son was very hesitant but we convinced... More
After searching through different schools, we stumbled across GB Whittier via Yelp. First impressions of the place is that it’s clean and orderly (I’ve passed there many times over the years but never inside). We went over the weekend and my 6 year old was crying 😭 because he didn’t know what to expect. Alex, the owner was very courteous and informative. My son was very hesitant but we convinced him to try the 3-day pass to try it out. Alex wasn’t pushy or eager to sell us any memberships off the bat. Today we went to his first intro class and I must say, Alan LOVED IT 🥰. He immediately engaged with the instructors and students. All of the kids were very nice and those he paired with were helpful in teaching him the loves. We signed him up right away after the first class. Looking forward to a nice, long relationship with team GB Whittier. Less
My son really loved his first session, which by the way, is free. The instructors are patient and gentle with the kids. They made my him welcome and comfortable and the energy in the gym is great!
This was my 7 year old Son’s first experience. He loved the uniform! He loved the Instructors and being hands on his very first day with a partner. He loved being with other little kids. He made connections! My son is special needs, so when something amazing like that happens it brings SUCH JOY to this Mamma heart! We can’t wait to go back for next class!
good spot. great knowledgeable coach and professor.
Took both my kids (3 and 4 yrs) for the free trial week and they had a great time. The instructors were great with the kids. I will definitely be signing them up for classes. The classes are twice a week and a great way for them to burn off energy and learn great skills.
love the instructors interaction and knowledge teaching these little 3 to 6 yr olds. so beautiful. so glad my great grandsons is learning how to channel his energy.
If I can leave zero stars then I would. My sister had automatic payments set up and when her child came here. But when classes ended, this business kept charging her. 5 months later they are still doing it and refusing to give her back her money.

Bueno 😊
Great place to train, everyone is super friendly and inviting. The coaches are awesome.
Our three daughters attend as well as a nephew. I attend the beginners adult class. Following the recent death of his mother, my five year old nephew was very tentative starting out. Coaches Phil and Alex went above and beyond to make him comfortable and he now attends enthusiastically.

Our three daughters attend as well as a nephew. I attend the beginners adult class. Following the recent death of his mother, my five year old nephew was very tentative starting out. Coaches Phil and Alex went above and beyond to make him comfortable and he now attends enthusiastically. I have been attending for about a month and a half, after not rolling at all since high school (25 years ago!). Everyone has been very welcoming and supportive. I have been paired with higher level blue belts in class and they have always been very gracious in teaching the correct way to execute positions. Have very much enjoyed my time and plan on continuing! Less
Great place to learn and practice the art. Top notch coaching/personnel. Clean facility. Laid back and friendly environment but also can get to Top Competitive Training. All students are great to spar/practice with NO attitudes. Definitely humbling and very honored to practice and train. #GBW

Its a great and amazing place. I'm really enjoying being part of a great grow of motivated people.
This place is great. The coaches are both knowledgeable and execute techniques with clear instruction.
Thank you to the team at Gracie Barra Whittier for instilling confidence in my son Michael. Your professionalism and knowledge far exceeded my expectations. My boy is extremely happy and enjoying every second of your class!
My son likes the place he told me to give it 5 stars.
Awesome my child love's it. Coaches and students very pleasant and welcoming.

I had a pretty bad time with martial arts as a kid, I wasn't that good, I had trouble with the other kids, etc etc etc. So when my Dad started going here and encouraged me to come with I was skeptical but eventually my depression and add hit an all time low, with nothing to lose I decided to try one class out, and was amazed by what I learned. Everyone there was positive out going and I felt right at home. The instructors helped me actually learn what I was doing and my sparring partner was a great guy. Definently coming back for more, my only regret is not starting sooner. Less
Great place for my kids and I to train BJJ!! Instructors are motivating and patient.
Come and try the kids or adults class and enjoy a great workout with great people. You will gain confidence and lose fat and If you want to compete well get ready with the competition class that has very committed people ready to help you win gold medals. Elite level instructors.
I've been enjoying the Kickboxing Classes, every Monday and Wednesday.. We have a awesome Teacher teaching us. They accept you like Family here. I'm Blessed to take this Class, my Health has Improved over the Weeks.
great place
Great instruction by motivated and helpfull practitioners. Ous!!
If you think you are too old to start training, you're wrong. I started at 44 and I wish I would've done it years ago. It's not easy, but you won't regret it. The staff and students are great...no egos here, just solid training and constant support. BJJ Whittier is a family and a team...join us!!!
This is a great place everyone from beginner to competition focused fighters. No bullies here just a bunch of great people. Love this place :-D
Gracie Barra Whittier has a great staff who are passionate about Brazilian Jiu Jitsu! I highly recommend this martial arts gym!
I am extremely impressed with this academy. Before Gracie Barra Whittier, I had been looking for a place to train for a long time with no success. The academy has everything I was looking for: helpful staff, knowledgable instructors, great people to train with, and clean/well maintained facilities. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a serious place to train.
GB Whittier is a wonderful resource staffed by well trained jiu jitsu professors/instructors. They are dedicated to the success of their students. We've been part of the little champs I & II for over a year now and glad we joined this academy.

We've been part of the little champs I & II for over a year now and glad we joined this academy. Many of the older students, teens & adults, take a genuine interest in the young kids and help out with drills. The staff is laid back, open to suggestions and always looking for ways to improve. The training mat is spacious and accommodates a fairly large group of students. Drop by and check it out for yourself. Less
This Academy has a very friendly atmosphere. Coming from a wrestling background I was really excited to find a place I can get a great workout in and learn jiujitsu. This place delivers! The Instructors and Students are really encouraging in helping you advance your skills. I'm a white belt now but can't wait to earn my blue belt. I personally get a lot out of this place.
