Great place to train and the staff is amazing!
We’ve been to several Jiu Jitsu schools over the years, and this one is the best. Professor Scott and his team really have something special here.
Our 11 year old son joined this fall and has had a wonderful time! It has boosted his confidence and discipline. We're especially pleased with the coaches' professionalism, attitude and rapport with the students. The positive energy and respect in the room is impressive!... More

If you are looking for a school that would teach your kids JJ in a professional and structured, but still friendly manner, this is the place to be. Instructors are great!

If you are looking for a school that would teach your kids JJ in a professional and structured, but still friendly manner, this is the place to be. Instructors are great! This school provides a perfect balance in between discipline and fun. Parents can feel very comfortable there too. Everyone is so kind and friendly. No weird contracts and long-term commitments that you have in most of martial art schools. If you want, they will motivate your kids to stay, but there is no uncomfortable pressure, in case this turns out not to be your kid’s thing. 5 stars! Less

Professor Scott Carr is an awesome BJJ teacher, and the community he has built at SE Boise Gracie Barra is testament to both his character and competence. I walked into the gym 15 minutes before a weekday adults class at 39-years old with zero experience in any combat sport -- zero athletic ability of any kind, truly -- and was immediately welcomed onto the mat by both instructors and teammates. ...

Professor Scott Carr is an awesome BJJ teacher, and the community he has built at SE Boise Gracie Barra is testament to both his character and competence. I walked into the gym 15 minutes before a weekday adults class at 39-years old with zero experience in any combat sport -- zero athletic ability of any kind, truly -- and was immediately welcomed onto the mat by both instructors and teammates. No matter your ability, experience or goals there is a place for you at GB SE Boise. You'll become fitter, gain confidence, increase skills, and meet an interesting mix of people united by a commitment to personal growth through jiu jitsu. Less
Great staff with a fun a safe environment to learn, I would highly recommend to anyone who is interested in Jiu-Jitsu!
Scott Carr has been an amazing owner and instructor of Gracie Barra Jui-Jitsu. As an accomplished Black belt he was inspirational in my training journey. I am 74 years old and have trained for two years. From my boxing days I have shoulder and hip problems. He showed me that I can get around these issues by doing things in a different way. I am honored to have earned my blue belt. This Jiu-Jitsu ... More
Scott Carr has been an amazing owner and instructor of Gracie Barra Jui-Jitsu. As an accomplished Black belt he was inspirational in my training journey. I am 74 years old and have trained for two years. From my boxing days I have shoulder and hip problems. He showed me that I can get around these issues by doing things in a different way. I am honored to have earned my blue belt. This Jiu-Jitsu studio is filled with respect and encouragement, as well as a bond of camaraderie. The hardest part to get started was to walk in the front door and meet with Scott.Gary Less

Gracie Barra Southeast Boise has been an incredible experience for both me and my 6-year-old son! We signed him up for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu this fall, and I couldn’t be happier with how much he’s thriving. Professor Scott is absolutely amazing with the kids—he has a way of making every class fun and engaging while teaching discipline, respect, and valuable life skills. My son looks forward to every session, and I can already see his confidence growing. It’s been so rewarding to watch him learn and develop in such a positive, supportive environment.After a few weeks of watching him, I decided to give it a try myself (because, let’s be real, I still want to keep that “intimidating parent” vibe—joking, of course!). Training with Coach Chris and Professor Scott has been nothing short of amazing. It’s the most challenging and rewarding workout I’ve ever done, and it’s also taught me valuable self-defense skills. I’ve done a lot over the years—biking, running, weightlifting, even hockey—but nothing compares to the mental and physical challenge of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.I can’t say enough good things about Gracie Barra Southeast Boise. Whether you’re looking for an incredible program for your kids or want to challenge yourself as an adult, this is the place to be. The coaching, the community, and the overall experience are simply top-notch! Less

Seriously, there was no cost spared on the mat area. It’s sooooo nice.South East Boise had no options for Jiu Jitsu and parents have an option for their kids. This is a safe, clean, and positive academy. I would be happy letting my kids train here given they were older.If you’re at all curious, fill out the form of the website. That’s what I did and Professor Scott called me and we had a great conversation.For confidence, sport, weight loss or a personal challenge, Jiu Jitsu is worth doing and this is a great place to do it at.
