The Gracie Barra School in Jacksonville, Arkansas is well known in the Martial Arts community for its commitment to teaching high level Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. At our school, you will receive hands on attention from our world class instructor who will monitor your progress in a clean, safe, and family-friendly environment.
Our black belt instructor, Eder Persiliano has trained under legendary Master Carlos Gracie Jr., and the World Class professors, Marcio Feitosa, Flavio Almeida and Marco Joca at the Main Gracie Barra Academy, located in Lake Forest, California. Under Master Carlos’ tutelage, Marcio, Andre Flavio and Marco extensive knowledge of the “gentle art” was formed on the same mats as same of the best BJJ instructors and fighters ever known.
Our school is for everyone and anyone who is looking to get in shape, learn self defense, and improve the overall quality of their lives. In addition our family-oriented environment is a perfect place to teach your children to feel safe everyday not only when they are at school or outside playing, but also in developing their self-confidence and discipline.
The instructor is a good competitor but he can’t speak English well enought to understand him and the person at the front desk was very rude to me; I recommend training elsewhere, so I hope this helps you out!
