Welcome to Gracie Barra Yakima
Located in Yakima , WA
"When asked, 'What does Gracie Barra mean to you?', our students would all have the same answer: 'A family'. This reaction is not luck, but it is the result of the life work of extraordinary individuals. Count Mitsuyo Maeda, Carlos Gracie Sr., Rolls Gracie, Carlos Gracie Jr., and people like me who have dedicated our lives to the realization of dreams and to the continuation of legacies.
Gracie Barra Jiu-Jitsu believes in a functional approach to training that is safe and effective. Our Professors and Coaches utilize up to date drills and training techniques to help take the student to the next level of physical, mental and spiritual perfection. Whether you seek training for competition, are out to learn self-defense, or perhaps looking for a fun way to release stress, you can be certain to be challenged in a safe, positive, and an athletic manner.
Our website is just a virtual extension of our school. Here you can find tons of information about us, our programs, our classes and our sport.

Message from Master Carlos Gracie Jr
"At the heart of the Gracie Barra Family's extraordinary success over the years is our strong philosophy and mission as a group, a foundation which our masters laid many years ago, but is constantly being reinforced by the great people that make our community. Jiu-Jitsu is a beautiful art, and we have a vision of how it should be taught as a means for individual development going beyond the competitive realm. To achieve this vision, we must remember to come together as a family, always putting the team in front of individual. For that, we will fight to the end for what we believe is right".
~ Master Carlos Gracie Jr. (Founder)
