“I've been training at GB Hornsby for 5 years and I can't speak more highly of the professors and coaches who dedicate their time to pass on their knowledge. Best of all, it's a great community of friendly and genuine people with no egos. The kids program is fantastic — my son has been training there since he was 7. They don't just learn juijutsu, they learn life lessons.”
“The best Jiu Jitsu Gym I have been to. Nothing matches the energy, the atmosphere and the people here. Head Professor Marcio and his team's passion to teach and provide knowledge is unmatched. Whether you're just starting out or a seasoned vet — I highly recommend GB Hornsby. They welcome you like family and it's my home away from home.”

A Class For
Everyone
The Gracie Barra structured curriculum — six focused programs designed to meet you where you are and take you further.
Our GBK Program introduces children to Jiu-Jitsu in fun, safe, age-appropriate classes — building confidence, discipline, and respect through a structured curriculum focused on self-defence, takedowns, and ground techniques.
The GB1 Program is the foundation of Jiu-Jitsu at Gracie Barra. Originally called the Fundamentals Program, it offers structured training in self-defence, core techniques, and the GB philosophy — designed for beginners and preparing students for advanced levels.
The GB2 Program builds on fundamentals with advanced techniques, complex drills, No-Gi training and live sessions — preparing students for GB3. Eligibility requires at least 3 stripes on a white belt, with a minimum of 4 months of training.
The GB3 Program is the ultimate level of training at a GB school. It challenges students with increased complexity of drills and higher intensity of training sessions. Open to blue belts and above.
The GBF Program offers a supportive and inclusive introduction to Jiu-Jitsu for women, focusing on core techniques while building confidence and preparing students to progress into GB1, GB2, and GB3.
Private classes offer one-on-one training tailored to your goals — whether refining techniques, preparing for competition, or accelerating progress. Personalized training schedules and focused feedback for students of all levels.
