Professor Zaza and Edgar are the best. I started BJJ with my son and we are both still rolling! Professor Zaza is an incredible instructor, great role model for kids, just an incredible human being, makes everyone feel welcomed, and creates a fun and safe environment making you feel at ease. Highly recommend! Less

Outstanding!!!My kids and I have been coming for two months and i cant be any happier with this training. I've had an incredible experience with this jiu-jitsu academy. The coaches have shown a genuine passion for teaching and an unwavering commitment to their students' growth. They’ve taken the time to work closely with the kids, not just training them in technique, but also building their confidence, discipline, and respect. It’s amazing to see how much the children have progressed and how much they enjoy coming to class. The adult sessions are just as impressive woth top notch training.I would definitely recommend this place to anyone!!! Less

We absolutely love this jiu-jitsu class! The professors are amazing, highly skilled, encouraging, and great at building discipline and mental toughness in the kids. I’ve seen real growth in all three of my children, not just physically but in their confidence and ability to overcome challenges. The professors have truly exceeded our expectations. They also do additional activities that help build a strong sense of community and belonging. I highly recommend this program to any parent looking to help their child grow inside and out. We are so thankful for all the professors, they are an amazing group of people.- Christina and Jimmie Johnson Less

I signed my son up about a month ago. I couldn’t be happier. It’s stealing the discipline that I want him to experience. The focus and coordination. Coaches are amazing. They work well with the kids. Highly recommend this to parent considering a Jiu-Jitsu school for their child. Or for themselves Less

I’ve been training Jiu-Jitsu for over four years now, and in that time, I’ve trained at numerous schools in and around the San Antonio area, as well as outside of it. Without a doubt, Gracie Barra Cibolo is one of the best programs I’ve experienced—across all levels and age groups.Both professors are incredibly knowledgeable, not just in their technique, but in how they teach and communicate that knowledge to their students. Their passion for the art and for helping others grow is evident in every class.The kids’ program is hands-down the best I’ve seen since I was a kid myself back in the ’90s. It’s rare these days to find coaches who hold kids to high standards while still making learning fun and engaging. As a parent, it’s exactly what you hope for when enrolling your child in any sport or martial art. The discipline, respect, and confidence they instill in the children is something truly special.If you’re a parent thinking about enrolling your child here, I can say with complete confidence: this place will change your child for the better. They’ll grow more disciplined, respectful, confident, and develop an unmatched work ethic—skills that carry over far beyond the mats.For adults, this school is just as impressive. The professors break down techniques in a way that’s easy to understand and apply, no matter your experience level. During sparring, you’re paired thoughtfully with partners at your rank, weight, and skill level—allowing for safe, productive training. As you grow, they challenge you more, helping you build both skill and trust in your own Jiu-Jitsu.Gracie Barra Cibolo is a breath of fresh air. From day one, you’ll feel welcomed, appreciated, and a genuine part of an amazing culture. Every class leaves you feeling better than when you walked in—physically, mentally, and emotionally. I highly recommend joining the family. Less

Cibolo location -(8 yr old class) Exceptional class, and the kids respond accordingly. The one thing that stood out to me is that, in the few classes I've come to, I've not heard any complaining, back talk or seen kids not paying attention. The teacher speaks and teaches on their level, and has an encouraging, yet tough demeanor. My only regret is not starting this path a couple of years ago. - Happy Cibolo Resident Less
