Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Harrison: Opinions
Fantastic experience: This has been a great experience for my son! He is typically shy, but after getting into the swing of things, he has started to come out of his shell. He is standing up for himself and learning good skills in his “bullyproof” class. I have seen more confidence in him in other areas outside of class!
Fantastic experience: Awesome program to help develop the kid’s character, confidence, and self esteem. Our son is close to completing his first year in the program and has grown so much with the help of the Gracie team. Looking forward to what’s to come.
Fantastic experience: The time and effort put in by Michael and Pyper is amazing and appreciated beyond words. Great structure building for these young children. I'm thrilled to have my son under their instruction. Thanks for all you guys do.
Fantastic experience: Amazing team that care about your child! Great and fun way to help your child learn respect and manners!
Fantastic experience: Gracie Jiu-Jitsu has been such a wonderful experience for my son. He is more confident in everything he does and gains more confidence with each session. He loves the fact that he not only can defend himself if the need ever arises, but he can also defend his friends and others that need him. As a parent I am so blessed to know that my child has the tools in his tool belt to keep himself safe if I am not around. Thank you Gracie Jiu-Jitsu for all you do and continue to do.
Fantastic experience: My three boys love it. The other kids were very helpful to show my boys what to do when they first started. The instructors are great with the kids. My middle son is diagnosed ODD, and this has helped him tremendously. My children now have the confidence to stand up against bullying.
Fantastic experience: Everyone here is always polite and respectful. They teach my son discipline and compassion. We will always be grateful to Gracie Jiu-Jitsu in Harrison.
Fantastic experience: This is a fantastic place! My 5 year old is taking the “bully proof” class and is loving it! The instructors are thorough and patient and create a fun learning environment. They teach de-escalation moves prioritizing defense. I would highly recommend to anyone seeking to learn self defense!
Fantastic experience: Well structured classes using professionalism in learning approach. Time managed instructon with multiple class instructors focused on technique development using practical application with immediate feedback. Friendly and welcoming environment for all skill and age levels. Offers both in class and online learning opportunities for self paced personal development within the Gracie system.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely a must for kiddos! My son feels more confident and encourages others. He also feels confident in sticking up for himself and others.
Fantastic experience: Our daughter has attended for almost 2 years and has learned a lot about self defense but also respect for others. The program is structured to keep kids engaged with fun activities while learning! It is an awesome program!
Fantastic experience: My son has been a member of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Harrison for nearly a year now. Over this time, we have seen tremendous growth in his character and confidence. This course is preparing him, both mentally and physically, for life's challenges. He is learning valuable principles and ethics that will benefit him throughout his life. As a home school mom, I'm very careful about who has influence over my children and I feel, without a doubt, that he is in good hands. I cannot say enough great things about the instructors. Thank you Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Harrison!
Fantastic experience: So appreciative of Gracie Jiu-jitsu to teach my son to defend himself against bullies of all sizes! They teach escape techniques and submissions, never to throw a punch. Avoid a fight at all cost but to diffuse or escape a dangerous situation.
Fantastic experience: We couldn’t be happier with our experience here. My daughter is extremely shy and the first day we went she had a breakdown and wanted to leave, Michael and Pyper were very patient with her and in no time my daughter was having a blast and making new friends! No kid is ever left out and everyone is made to feel empowered and included. They are so good with all the kids and are extremely helpful teaching everyone new moves. You will not be disappointed if you decide to bring your kids or signing yourself up! My daughter always looks forward to practice on Tuesdays and Thursdays and is learning so many good skills!
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend all children to join there classes along with adults. There is something to be said about not just the self defense from bullies but also to help teach and reinforce good and positive training with all children in a positive reinforcement to encourage participation in class and even out side the classroom. This place goes Above and beyond for there kids
Fantastic experience: Gracie Jiu-Jitsu has become the highlight of my sons week! We are very impressed by the overall atmosphere, cleanliness, teaching, and focus of the class. The focus on character building is fantastic. We are thankful for the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu community we found here!
Fantastic experience: I have been at the school since August 28th of 2020 and I have learned so much. The environment is super friendly and everyone is there to help each other learn. I look forward to each combatives class and I can't wait to enter Master Cycle. By far, the best martial arts school I have ever attended. I am now in master cycle and still love it.
Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism We love being part of the Gracie jiu jitsu family! The instructors are so good with the kids. They are not only teaching them self defense but the part I like best are the life lessons they teach, encourage and reinforce.
Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality , Value This is such an awesome gym. My son absolutely loves his Gracie nights. The instructors are top notch and really care about the kids that attend. Would highly recommend 10/10
Fantastic experience: This is a place where our family has found common ground and something we will always have together. My entire family trains at Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, Harrison. My children attend the Bully Proof program, where they are taught by Mike and Pyper. Mike teaches with patience and has a way of communicating with children. Pyper is a younger coach, but her maturity and skill are great examples for all. My wife and I are in the combatives class. The class is methodical and ensures you will know the basics of Jui-jitsu combative.
Fantastic experience: Our sons attend class here. They started at zero experience and only karate movie knowledge. They now practice what they've actually been taught and volunteer in class. This program is great for our boys because it is teaching life lessons along with introducing them to other friends. The instructors are informative and always very thorough. Our boys love to remind us how much they love Jiu-jitsu. We intend to keep them enrolled so they can progress as far as they can. Thanks for all y'all are doing for our kids Gracie Jiu-jitsu Harrison!
Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality The best decision for our 6 year old! Through the Bullyproof program, Mike and Pyper encourage good character traits in a creative mix of fun and seriousness. We're proud to be part of the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu community!
Fantastic experience: Wow! What an awesome group of very professional and welcoming people who take pride in what they do. This was our first visit and I felt like I’d been training with them for a long time. Never once did my daughter nor myself feel like we didn’t belong there. I really appreciated them making us feel welcome, but even more importantly I thought the instruction was top notch. I can’t wait to go back! A big thank you to Michael, Joe, Piper, and Zach.
Fantastic experience: Other Jui-Jitsu gyms are too fast and can be overwhelming. At Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Harrison I am able to learn at a pace that allows me to actually learn the moves for life. Learning is the most important part of my Jui-Jitsu class, but I am glad to say I have made some life long friends. My children are in the Bullyproof program and have learned so much from Michael and Pyper. Michael is incredible with the kids and Pyper is such a good roll modle and teacher as well. I recommend Gracie Jui-Jitsu to anyone who wants to truly understand and learn Jui-Jitsu and become part of a wonderful group of people.
Fantastic experience: I joined Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Harrison in the Gracie Combatives class with no previous martial arts experience. Everyone from the owners to the instructors to the other students were welcoming and encouraging as soon as I walked in the door. On your first day you are welcomed in, issued a gi (jacket, pants, and belt), given some initial tips, and you are ready to start learning. All the techniques are presented in a clear and easy-to-understand manner with an emphasis on safety, the most important parts of the technique, and some of the most common mistakes to avoid. I love the fact that you get the opportunity to learn with experienced as well as beginner students and everyone is working on the same techniques. This is the perfect place to learn Gracie Jiu-Jitsu: it's a safe, friendly, and constructive environment and anyone can learn here no matter your age, background, or physical abilities.
Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality , Value Our children have grown in all areas of their lives since joining Gracie Jiu-jitsu. Michael and Pyper are amazing teachers that truly care about the well being and futures of all the students. We highly recommend checking out Gracie Jiu-jitsu of Harrison! They even have adult classes if you are interested for yourself.
Fantastic experience: This is my home gym, I’ve trained with them for the last 6+ years. Super clean and friendly environment, great depth of knowledge, real-world practical self defense is at the forefront, but you’ll be exposed to sport techniques along the way. Training partners are supportive and create a safe place to train but still push you to improve and test yourself. Fantastic kids programs!!!!
Fantastic experience: From the moment my son and I walked in we felt so welcomed. The parents and instructors treated us as we had been there all along. My son never stopped smiling once, which made me so happy to see. He has not stopped talking about it and asks everyday if he gets to go back. They are professional and I love how they are teaching our children values that are so needed in today’s world. -Brittany Ply
Fantastic experience: A place that not only cares about training, but also cares for the people. A major emphasis is put on the safety of students. They offer programs for all ages!
Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality , Value My children love this program! They teach them character building, respect, determination, self-confidence, and to show respect for their peers! Michael and Pyper are amazing instructors, they are encouraging but strict which is amazing! They do fun activities with them also as a group so we all feel like a big family!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic teaching with the art of Gracie jiu-jitsu great teachers when you ask questions about the technique there teaching they answer it great self defense.
Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality , Value This is a great school for jiu-jitsu and self defense! They have great instructors. The lessons are very detailed, and the facility is extremely clean. My nephew loves it! We drive 45 minutes just to go there. I definitely recommend checking it out!
Fantastic experience: My son needed a confidence boost, so I decided to enroll him in the free 10 day trial. He absolutely loves it. I have definitely seen an improvement not only in his confidence but also his attitude. He looks forward to going. His instructors are amazing. He is now enrolled full time and I definitely encourage all parents to try it out not only for your little ones but also a piece of mind for yourselves.
Fantastic experience: Sometimes the fight picks you! Gracie jiu jitsu combatives offers a package of instruction that is methodical and surprisingly entertaining. All of that is available 24/7 and the live training is supported by a amazing staff to pull you out of bad habits. They are respectfull, knowledgeable, energetic and put as much effort into you as you give to jiu jitsu.
Fantastic experience: Love, love, LOVE this place! As a mother whose fitness level is solely based on twelve years of chasing and carrying little ones, it could have been really intimidating to join the combatives class with so many others having more core strength and skill. But the instructors make things super clear, step by step; the teammates respect and cheer each other on; and the whole experience is really empowering as I am learning skills that I can take with me and practice at home. And these skills are not just a bit of cardio or some fancy moves for sports competitions- they are practical, realistic self-defense skills that I can use without having to get to a certain strength or fitness level first. The big bonus is seeing my 4 oldest kids and my husband having fun every week learning these essential skills as well. Thank you, Mike and crew, for running such an amazing training center and giving such a warm welcome to our whole family. We're excited to be part of the Gracie Jiu Jitsu Harrison team!
Fantastic experience: My son (12) has been going to Gracie jiu-jitsu for almost three year's, its helped him with self confidence and he has made many new friends. My daughter (9) has been going for two years, Gracie jiu-jitsu has helped her with talking infront of people and standing up for herself. The teachers are amazing! We love Gracie jiu-jitsu!
Fantastic experience: As a parent we all want the best for our kids. We want them to be kind but also know how to defend themselves if needed. After just a few short months of enrolling my 6yr old, he has shown a better attitude towards everything he does. He is growing in self-discipline and confidence. The instructors are professional and top-notch! We have had a great experience and we highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough good things about Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Harrison. My child has learned so much, but more importantly feels accepted and as part of a family there. The coaches are amazing and this is one place I feel my child is definitely safe. Also, the coaches do correct the children's behavior when it is needed and I greatly appreciate how they handle those moments! When we first inquired about the program we were allowed to watch while our child attended (at no cost) a few sessions to see if it was a good match for him (and a year later we are excited to say it was a great match for him!). So give it a try!
Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism We moved here from Texas! We looked at a few different Jiu Jitsu studios & were most impressed with Gracie. Our son fit in very well with the professional atmosphere. We were welcomed like family. Michael does a great job along with the rest of the team!
Fantastic experience: Mike, Chase, Piper and staff do an excellent job in breaking down expectations, and prepping every student to succeed. Lessons are presented with in-depth instruction, all questions welcomed, and time given to practice the slices with competent correction and encouragement provided. I've been to a fair number of schools over the years, and Gracie Jiu Jitsu of Harrison does a top-flight job of providing the knowledge and training necessary to become proficient in the critical life skill they teach - I advise everyone I know to become proficient in a combat art, and this school is as good of a source as you will find toward this end in the Boone County area.
Fantastic experience: Love the Gracie organization and this "family" in particular. Michael, Chase, and all the other experienced practitioners that reside here are a wealth of knowledge and experience to fuel your growth in this art. Very affordable, safe, and perfectly adaptable challenge based on how much effort you personally put forth. Don't hesitate to learn how to protect yourself, loved ones, or even have them learn for themselves!
Fantastic experience: All three of my children attend Gracie Jiu-Jitsu in Harrison. They absolutely love it. My middle son started over a year to help bring him out of his shell and to get him interested in something. His confidence level has grown so much since he started. A year later my daughter and youngest son started. My daughter was very quiet and shy, but now she speaks louder and is more confident in the things she does. My youngest enjoys it so much. His teacher has sent home many notes about how much of a leader he is and how respectful he is. Gracie Jiu-Jitsu has been the best thing for all three of my children. The instructors and the atmosphere is well structured and create a safe place for the children to learn and grow.
Fantastic experience: The Gracie Jiu Jitsu Harrison family is one of the best groups of people I have ever been associated with. Everyone from the instructors to the students truly cares about providing an excellent learning environment. Even though you are learning a martial art, the teaching style allows it to be learned in a safe manner. I would highly recommend trying out a class whether you have previous experience or have never trained in a martial art before.
Fantastic experience: We love this awesome school! Our son has learned so many great qualities like self-discipline and teamwork. The instructors are dedicated to providing a professional atmosphere and seek to cultivate qualities like respect, citizenship, and a healthy lifestyle for children and adults alike.
Fantastic experience: Great facility, program, instructors, and students! I have felt very welcomed as a newcomer to Jiu-Jitsu. This great group of people make their main goal very clear: to help you succeed in preparing to defend yourself, and those you love, in a safe and friendly environment. If you want a defense system that evens the odds against larger and/or stronger opponents, then Gracie Jiu-Jitsu is the way to go! Don't take my word for it though. They offer a 10 day free trial! So, do what I did, and come check it out for yourself. You have nothing to lose, and you won't be disappointed!
Fantastic experience: This place is great. Our daughter has learned so much, and become more confident in her ability to protect herself. The training is well done, big moves come from small steps and they are all done well. Kids and adults are training together, and they train to your ability.
Fantastic experience: Both of our boys (ages 5 and 10) have absolutely flourished in the Bullyproof class. I tell people it’s good for the bullied and the bullies too. Teaches respectful but firm ways to stop bullying. The teachers are experienced, passionate, and dedicated. I’ve recommended this class to at least a dozen friends with kids of all ages.
Fantastic experience: Great place with a wonderful, structured program for children and adults. The bullyproof system for children is great, with a fantastic character development program. Instructors are superb, with passion to share their knowledge and help growth on and off the mat. The facility is very neat and clean. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with everyone welcome to come learn in a safe environment. They even offer a free trial!
Fantastic experience: Our kiddo (age 6) loves coming to Jiu Jitsu. We’re so impressed how Michael works with the kids on skills like citizenship, sharing, and manners. We visited another studio and had a completely different experience. It is great that they allow you to visit a class before committing to attending class regularly. We LOVE Gracie Jiu Jitsu Harrison.
Fantastic experience: My son has been attending Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Harrison for a couple of months. I am beyond pleased with the quality of instruction he has received. The coaches are genuinely concerned with each of their students’ needs. This has been a very positive thing for my son. I highly recommend this facility.
Fantastic experience: My kids absolutely love it here. The instructors are very good with the kids. My kids learn so much more than how to defend themselves, they learn to be disciplined, attentive, follow directions and much much more. Great program.
Fantastic experience: This jiu-jitsu center is top notch!!! Michael the owner, and all the other coaches are amazing!!! I wish there were more than 5 stars possible as they deserve so much more!! We enrolled our 3 children (daughter 16, son 14, and son 12) a little over a year ago. We wanted them to learn a skill that they could take with them into adulthood that could be used to protect themselves and their families. What we got is so much more than that. They have been blessed with an additional family that not only cares about their jiu-jitsu skills, but they care about them personally. They push our children to have good characters, be disciplined, and to be welcoming to all children that walk through the doors. I see the care for each child that enters their school, and I've been impressed over and over by their firm discipline, yet gentle love for all the children. Our two older children are in the adult class now and it is the same in there as well...the way each coach has invested in them, and even pressed them at times has made such a difference in their lives. They are more confident and secure in who they are and for that we are forever grateful to each coach!!! We are blessed to be a part of the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Harrison Family!!!! Come and try them out you will never regret it!!!!
