I have a family member in one of the classes. She is doing well and likes attending. The coaches and professors work with the students to learn jujutsu. They also teach them how to protect themselves.

Gracie Barra McKinney with Professor Inacio and his team have been a huge blessing for our family. Our 5 year old started thanks to encouragement from a friend and after seeing him enjoy the programs, his two brothers (9 & 4) both wanted to join. Now we are proud to have all three of our boys learning from the incredible team of coaches and professors and growing every day. The physical tools are important but the real value for us has been the leadership, respect, and self-confidence the boys have gained. There are too many great team members to list but in addition to Professor Inacio - Professors David, Israel, Henry, and Roiter along with Coach Connor have made GB McKinney truly feel like a family!

If you’re looking for the toughest workout you’ll ever get while also finding a second family, this is the place. Multiple black belts on the mat every single day means the knowledge and skill you gain here is unmatched. Every session you walk away learning something new.The kids program is equally impressive, disciplined, focused, and genuinely life changing. If you want your child to build confidence, make great friends, and learn a skill that will teach them something new every day for the rest of their lives, look no further. I enrolled my twelve year old daughter and watching her transformation has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. She now has a passion for BJJ and a goal of earning her black belt one day. Her confidence has grown tremendously and I can see it in everything she does.What makes this even more special is that we train together. Getting to roll with my daughter is something I will always treasure. It is a bond that will last as long as we both keep training.I am truly grateful I found this academy and introduced my daughter to this sport. The community here is full of like minded people who push each other to be better every day.And no, I am not just writing this because Professor said he would choke me out if I did not. I would get choked out either way. 😄

I signed up my daughter at this Jiu Jitsu academy, and it has been an amazing experience. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging with every student, no matter their skill level. They create a welcoming and respectful environment where students feel comfortable learning and growing.Since joining, I’ve seen a big improvement in my daughter’s confidence, discipline, focus, and overall fitness. The coaches truly care about each student’s progress and make everyone feel like part of a strong, supportive team.I highly recommend this academy to anyone looking for a positive place to learn Jiu Jitsu, build confidence, and be part of a great community.

I’ve been training for about 3-4 years now and I’ve never regretted it. I had always jumped around to different sports when i was younger. This is one for me , as it has shown me discipline, community, and so much more. If your looking for a way to lose weight of gain discipline I would highly recommend this.

I’ve been training at Gracie Barra McKinney for about four and a half years, and it has been nothing short of amazing. The instruction is top-notch. Prof. Inacio Neto and the other black belts provide truly world-class teaching, and it shows in the level of detail and structure in every class.The culture and community are just as strong. I’ve built friendships here that will last a lifetime. The gym is always clean, well organized, and run professionally, and there is a wide variety of classes whether you are looking to compete or just want a great hobby and a solid workout that will provide you with self-defense skills.I’m also glad that Gracie Barra Little Elm is about to open. It will carry the same level of instruction and community making it an incredible addition.Overall, Gracie Barra McKinney is simply outstanding!

Great place, great atmosphere. Top notch coaching

Joined Gracie Barra - McKinney a few years ago, and glad I made this decision. The Professors and Coaches push you to become a better practitioner and training partner. The culture is special and promotes respect. BJJ has helped me deal with other struggles off the mats and life problems. If you keep showing up, little things compound and add up! Cheers
