Is It Safe?

No Striking

Kids Jiu-Jitsu is controlled and technique-based. Children practise on padded mats with a coach-supervised, similarly sized partner.

Safety Is The Foundation

Risk Management is the foundation the entire Gracie Barra teaching method is built on, not an afterthought.

Real Families. Real Results.

"My son is a shy and unique young man that was struggling with bullying and anxiety issues. Since starting training with Gracie Barra he has built a new level of confidence which has been so beautiful to see."

Kathryn, a GB Bondi parent

"The GB Bondi team do a really great job at teaching more than just jiu-jitsu. There is discipline, learning to listen, routine, safety, and a few really good general life lessons."

Daniel, a GB Bondi parent of a 7-year-old
