My 9 year old son just joined and we had an incredible experience! All of the coaches of course were strict as they have to be in this sport but also friendly and you can tell they love their job! Just sitting and watching I learned a ton and our family is so excited to come back including our 9 year old! I highly recommend! -The Bos family

The instructors are knowledgeable and clearly communicate the lessons to the students. My 13 year old daughter trains her at this location and her confidence has grown with each lesson and interaction with females her age and older. I highly recommend if you are an experienced student or just beginning, choose this location for your training. Be sure to say hello to Coaches Andy, Angie, and Jeremy.

This review is long overdue but I'm glad I waited, as I've now been attending classes here for about 6 months and feel I can provide good insight. Entering any new dojo can be nerve-racking and that's exactly how I felt the first day I attended GB Corona, despite having been a student for quite some time elsewhere. I wasn't sure what to expect and felt intimidated. If you're looking at reviews, trying to make sure you pick the right place, GB Corona is definitely a place you need to check out. At the minimum, do the trial classes. I promise you'll love it and want to stay, and can also promise that the magic in this place will last past your free trial. First day you will receive a warm welcome from everyone. Don't worry if you dont know what to do, what the warm ups are like, if you don't grasp everything right away, they never forget that you're new, and both instructors or fellow students take the time and patience to show you. Other students are always friendly, everyone is kind. The environment that has been created here is one of helping each other and being good teammates at all times. I cannot finish this review without mentioning Coach Andy, who provides the absolute best customer service, always! He is always polite, takes the time to explain their billing system thoroughly, always available to answer questions and happy to help. If I had a personal business, I'd want someone just like Coach Andy to lead recruitment/customer service. He definitely cares about the students, and plays a big role in the friendliness found at this school. My last thought is that anyone starting out in BJJ should absolutely take the Fundamentals class on Mondays and Wednesdays taught by Professor Elvin. These evenings were all my work schedule allowed and Im glad it did, the way Professor Elvin teaches is the perfect bridge to commiting and being excited to return. He thoroughly explains drills, shows detailed techniques and makes it simple and fun to learn. Professor Elvin always has great energy and is just amazing at teaching. Another thing to note is that this school makes their students safety a priority so no need to worry about getting hurt. I'd highly recommend GB Corona, you won't regret it.

We decided to give this place a try based on a recommendation. Two plus years later, the whole family is enrolled. You bet we'll be enrolling the baby as early as possible. All the coaches and professors are intelligent and experienced. The Program Director, Coach Andy, is top notch professional. Highly recommend!

This Gracie has such an amazing team! I Signed my kids up in spring of 2021 and this was exactly what they needed after a year like 2020. Not only do the professors and coaches teach life long lessons and build confidence in the students, Gracie teaches them to train smarter and know when to use self defense. My kids have gained lasting valuable knowledge and have been treated like family here.

This school has been amazing. All of the Coaches and Professors have been great as well. They are so good with teaching and mentoring the kids. It has been such a confidence builder for my son on and off the mats. Highly recommend this school for anyone interested in starting BJJ or continuing their BJJ journey. ????

I could not say more amazing things about this jujitsu team. Professor Pat and all the coaches are TOP notch. They are so so good and really help the children (and adults) understand the jujitsu ways and the discipline of the sport. It's amazing seeing my son learn not only how to defend himself, but to keep "strength in his body, knowledge in his mind and a non quitting attitude"

Gracie Barra Corona has an amazing staff that welcomes you right into their family almost immediately. After training Jiu jitsu for 5yrs, I can confidently say I have finally found my home. The staff is phenomenal and the energy of the team is like no other. This really is a more than a team it’s a family.

I wanted to lose weight and get fit but did not want to join any regular gyms. Wanted something that would teach me how to defend myself and get a good workout at the same time. A friend told me about Jiu-Jitsu so went to many different Jiu-Jitsu schools for tried out and they are all good. But I was looking for the schedules that will fit my schedule as well as how they teach the class. After weeks of looking, unable to find any school that I like, a friend told me about Gracie Barra in Corona, so I went in and did the try-out. I love it! I joined Gracie Barra in Corona that day.The coach and the professor there are so welcoming and they go around checking on all the students as we are practicing to be sure that our forms are correct or if we have any question. They are really encouraging even when you think you can't do it. They also have a nice variety of schedules classes that I can go to that fit my schedule. The monthly cost to join are better than some or same as many other jujitsu School.It has been 2 months since I joined and I have learn so much on how to defend myself and how to get out of unwanted situation. I still have a lot more to learn and I am look forward on learning more new technique and skill on self defense. Check out Gracie Barra in Corona, you will not be disappointed.

These are the nicest and most professional people I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with. My grand daughters love the professors and coaches. It is very well maintained, clean and organized.
