Gracie is such a welcoming environment! The staff and students embody an encouraging and positive group that is committed to helping one another grow.
The classes are offered through the day so finding a time that fits my busy schedule is made easy.
My son also attends classes and looks forward to every practice! If you’re looking to get started or already have experience, these classes have something for everyone.
I joined Carlson Gracie BJJ back in 2021 not knowing what to expect and just wanting to learn self defense. I had been looking for a place to learn self defense classes in the DFW for months and was unable to find the right place… as a woman, the concept of learning self defense seemed a bit intimidating.
The first time I contacted Carson Gracie school to learn more about their program, I felt very welcomed by Camila who answered all my questions and concerns before doing the free trial they were offering at the time.
The first day I visited the school I immediately felt the “family environment” and that made me feel very safe. The teaching style made me feel like I was learning practical and useful skills. I met tons of new people who became my friends, they encouraged me through my learning journey. At this school, I learned self confidence and I learned courage, by facing my fears. I never thought I would push myself in this way and it’s through my confidence gained at Carson Gracie, that I routinely test myself by competing in World League competitions. The school has become more than a place for me to train, rather it has become a home and it’s students (my friends) have become an extension of my family.
I am forever grateful for Professor Andre and the coaches, Gary and Jim, who motivate me, push me, and support me as I grow each time I step on the training mat.
I highly recommend this Jiu Jitsu school to anyone looking in the DFW and look forward to train in their new location at the beginning of next year in The Colony/Lewisville! OSS!
Carlson Gracie Carrollton is fantastic! The instructors are skilled and welcoming, the facilities top-notch, and the focus on personal growth is inspiring. It’s perfect for beginners and experienced practitioners. Highly recommended for anyone interested in jujitsu or self defense!
I wanted to share what a positive impact my time at Carlson Gracie (formerly Gracie Barra) has been on my life. I have always had an interest in Jiu Jitsu, but felt intimidated getting started. Although I played sports, I had no martial arts experience prior to starting. After the birth of my son and maintaining a stressful job, I knew I needed a outlet for stress. I finally decided to give it a try.
Professor Andre, Camila, Patricia, and Gary all were so welcoming from the moment that I first walked into the gym. I tried one other gym before Carlson Gracie and it was night and day the difference in atmosphere. You can tell that everyone at CG is passionate about BJJ and the positive impact it can have on your life.
One aspect of the gym I really want to emphasize and was unexpected was the social element. I can truly say that I feel like I have bonded with many of the other members and have made many friends through jiu jitsu. The culture is very encouraging and fun and it is not uncommon for people to stick around after class to talk and have a good laugh together. Before starting, (based on stories I read online about BJJ in general) I was concerned about more advanced students engaging in intimidation or hazing practices. I am happy to say at CG the complete opposite is true. The more advanced students have clearly had good training and go out of their way to make people feel welcomed and to teach to your ability.
Professor Andre, Patricia, and Gary are all actively competing which means they are at the top of their game. Professor Andre was been ranked in the top three nationally for his weight class (something I didn't know until I got started). Despite this, they treat everyone who walks in with dignity, respect, and care. The coaches are very attentive, focused, and dedicated to helping you be the best you can be no matter your size or athletic ability. During warm ups, drilling, and rolling they are enthusiastic, excited, and incredibly perceptive concerning giving precise feedback that can help you improve. You can tell considerable thought goes into maintaining a culture that mixes fun and competitiveness which really makes you want to keep getting better.
In addition to the culture, training, and atmosphere being top notch, this is also a great option for getting into shape. Over the course of four months I lost about 30 pounds from going to train consistently. I can honestly say at age 37 I am likely in the best shape of my life in terms of cardio and flexibility. This is not something I thought I would ever say as I was nearing 40.
Concerning the facilities, the gym is very clean and you can tell great care goes into maintaining a professional and sanitary atmosphere. I have never been concerned about cleanliness and compared to others gyms I have visited while out of town, this was by far the most well maintained. Personally, I find this element to be important as it adds a level of comfort to the setting.
Professor Andre makes a point to say that the gym is a family and thats what it feels like. The training is great and it really makes you appreciate the art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I look forward to going to the gym everyday. I cannot recommend Carlson Gracie of Carrollton enough!
My first grader has enjoyed training at Carlson Gracie Carrollton for about 10 month now. He wants to train every day. Professor Gomes, and the coaches, are focused on making sure every class is a great experience for the kids. This place has a family atmosphere. They care. My son is learning. I am so glad we found this amazing school.
Coach Patricia and Professor Andre were both so engaging and especially patient with the kids' beginners Jiu Jitsu class. Camila was also so responsive any time we needed anything. They went above and beyond to help our daughter learn and enjoy class!
My husband and I started BJJ about a month ago. With this being our first time trying any form of martial arts, we were a little nervous. However, we have had nothing but an incredible experience. Professor Andre is awesome! The coaches, staff, and teammates are what truly make this an incredible gym to go to. No matter what level or experience you may have. If you’re looking for a good workout that has real life applications all while having a good time, I’d definitely recommend joining Carlson Gracie.
Happy to have found a CG school in the Dallas area. Professor Andre is very knowledgeable and friendly and has great attention to detail. His instruction is suitable for all levels and the students are friendly and welcoming. Very clean gym with lots of space as well. I will definitely be back soon.
